Basement Waterproofing in Northern North Carolina

Water in the basement of your Northern North Carolina home can look like a small trickle on the walls or all-out flooding. Either case is bad news for your home and family. Water, coupled with humidity, creates a breeding ground for mold and rotting wood, both of which threaten your home’s structural integrity and your family’s safety. 

Don’t let these issues plague your Northern North Carolina home any longer. Our experienced team at Tar Heel Basement Systems has the knowledge and award-winning service and solutions your home needs to stay dry and healthy for good. We have been waterproofing basements throughout Northern North Carolina for 20 years, and we are eager to assist you, as well.

Basement Problem Signs in Northern North Carolina

Water is the most obvious problem sign you will see in your Northern North Carolina basement, whether it is in the form of dampness on the walls or puddles on the floor. If there is a problem with your basement, you will also notice efflorescence, mold, leaking windows, condensation, elevated humidity, increased pest activity, and unpleasant odors. Time will not heal any of these issues, but will instead make them worse for your family to be around and more costly to repair. At the first sign of trouble, don’t hesitate to reach out to Tar Heel for a free inspection

Causes of Basement Damage in Northern North Carolina

Internal sources like malfunctioning sump pumps or burst plumbing pipes can lead to damage in your Northern North Carolina basement, but the causes behind most basement problems are external. This includes the area’s soil and weather, and how the two interact with your home. North Carolina, including the northern and mountainous areas, has various soil types from rocky to expansive clay. Many Northern North Carolina locations annually receive more than 50 inches of rain and 30 inches of snow. If the soil is inundated with this much water and runoff, it will easily flood as well as exert hydrostatic pressure on your basement walls that leads to cracks and leaks

Basement Waterproofing Solutions in Northern North Carolina

No two basements are the same, so your Northern North Carolina home needs personalized basement waterproofing solutions. Following a free evaluation, your Tar Heel inspector might recommend interior drainage, sump pumps, battery backup pumps, wall vapor barriers, dehumidifiers, and anti-freeze sump pump discharge line attachments. Each piece of the puzzle is important, and all these solutions were designed to work together as a complete basement waterproofing system. All our products also are made in the USA and protected by long-lasting, nationally backed, transferrable warranties.

Why Choose Tar Heel Basement Systems

If you’ve got water or other damage in your basement, it is important to nip those problems in the bud right away to safeguard your family and your Northern North Carolina home.

The specific project is floor stabilization with minor lift but that isn't an option so i picked encapsulation instead (which K do intend to gave Tar Heel do, down the line). Jay Yount was great salesperson and Ceritified Field Inspector. Foreman David P and crew mates Ernesto "Nestor" and James C were knowledgeable and efficient, arrived on time and got the job done in two days. Results of the floor stabilization were communicated to me clearly before, during and after the work was performed. All my expectations were at least met. Would definitely recommend Tar Heel to friends and family.

So beyond pleased with Tarheel Basement Systems! I'm a 2-year customer as of this week. A complete encapsulation, french drains, sump pump and dehumidifier. I receive an inspection each year around this time, my representative was John Snow, was amazing, so polite, punctual, kept me up to date on his arrival via text and phone, it was so pleasant seeing someone who "gets" customer service , and John does! He informed me my dehumidifier was not working, and would be replaced under warranty, and like clockwork as John said, he replaced it today! The easiest replacement ever, he arrived worked diligently, above and beyond! Again, beyond pleased!

Jeffrey Traub came out the day after I called the company. I had a large tree root that appeared to be going under my house and I was concerned it could cause cracks in my slab. He was on time and very thorough in examining my house. While he didn't find any problems he did spot a couple of issues for me to keep my eye on. He also explained I probably had lots of tree roots going under my house and that I just couldn't see them. My neighborhood had been built on land that was heavily wooded. He also explained HOW they fix a SLAB house that has foundation problems. I had envisioned all sorts of nightmare scenarios such as having to move all my belongings out and having my new floors ripped up. Luckily that is NOT how they repair it. Just knowing if that horrible day ever came where I would need their services, that it wouldn't be the nightmare I had thought, put my mind at ease. Jeffrey's explanation of the care they take to preserve my flooring while making repairs was very reassuring. The person who set up the appointment was also very thorough in asking questions to determine what the issue might be and which serviceman to send. Since I don't have a basement or crawl space I never thought I could have foundation problems. I was wrong but luckily I do not have any at this time and thanks to Jeffrey I am knowledgeable about what to look for in order to catch problems in their early stage when it is easiest and cheapest to fix. I would definitely recommend this company and suggest you ask for Jeffrey Traub to come to your house.

We had Tarheel Basement do some leveling concrete work at our church. They were extremely professional, efficient, and friendly. They also cleaned up when the job was done. I hope I get their names right-Joe and Josh (working in place of Thomas) -did an outstanding job. I would absolutely recommend them!

Big big shout out to the guys who came and did all the work under my house, they didn’t complain or fuss the entire four days they were here, job was done professionally and in a very timely manner, highly highly recommend this company for any kind of work you need done on your basement/crawlspace. By far not the cheapest option but the quality of work and craftsmanship stand out in there employees and the work they provide. Gary Hacker, Nester Bautista, and Axel Perez all deserve a raise!

First I met with Jeff about Crawlspace encapsulation. He discovered 2 rotten floor Joice. Replacement of those as well as encapsulation was very reasonable. They sent out Andy and Elijah who were very efficient and considerate. The other half of the space was an open basement area. The main front wall was so wet mortar was easing out. Jeff recommended a french drain with a pump. Edward and Jeremy were not only respectful but explained every step . Thank you Tarheel Basement Crew !!

Nathan Addington just left my Mom's house after a routine service inspection. He was so nice and very thorough! Thanks to him, we found out the gutter downspouts are in need of repair and some need replacing. We ordered from him right then and there! He even told us we qualified for an extended warranty for a very special price. I have been very satisfied with Tarheel Basement over the years and they continue to provide quality personnel and support! Thank you, Nathan, for being so sweet to us old folks!

I was extremely satisfied with the professionalism and hard work that Adam Canter (lead), Tim Witherspoon and Ryan Oldman displayed. They worked well together to complete the job on time and above expectations. I was impressed with the systems but even more impressed with the way it was installed, the efforts to control the dust and the cleanup that occurred throughout the job. I would suggest you ask for this crew by name. I had the work quoted by others but there was no warranty included. I think the extra money spent was well worth the quality, warranty and included follow-up inspections. The lifting peer systems installed closed the cracks in the brick veneer on the length of 3 sides of the house as planned. I observed the installation of the wall braces and could see the immediate reduction in bowing of wall. Very happy with results.
