About bros

Why Cincinnati Basements Need Waterproofing

We specialize in fixing water problems caused by Cincinnati’s unique conditions. The clay-heavy soils near the Ohio River don’t drain well. Steep hillsides create runoff that flows toward foundations. Year-round rainfall puts constant pressure on basement walls.

We work on older brick homes in Over-The-Rhine, Walnut Hills, Hyde Park, and Oakley where foundations weren’t built with modern waterproofing. We also handle newer properties in Mason, Blue Ash, and Loveland that face drainage issues from clay soil expansion.

The problems we fix most often include bowing walls from hydrostatic pressure, foundation cracks that leak after storms, wet basements, and flooded crawl spaces. Water damage worsens over time – small cracks become structural issues, mold develops, and home values drop. According to Forbes, repair costs vary based on the severity and type of water damage in your basement.

We’ve waterproofed basements across Cincinnati and surrounding areas. We know which solutions work in this soil and climate because we install them every day. Whether your home sits on a hillside in Mount Adams or near the river in Downtown, we have the right fix for your basement. Learn more about us.

Our Waterproofing & Foundation Services

We provide complete solutions for basement water problems and foundation issues. Each service addresses specific problems we see in local homes.

Basement Waterproofing

We install interior and exterior waterproofing systems that keep your basement dry year-round. Our services include wet basement repair, flooded basement cleanup and prevention, basement moisture control, and dehumidification. We handle both commercial and residential properties. These systems protect your basement against heavy rainfall and the high water table common in the Ohio River valley.

Foundation Repair

Foundation problems need professional repair before they worsen. We provide foundation crack repair using epoxy injection for smaller cracks. For more serious issues, we offer bowing wall repair with carbon fiber reinforcement, foundation settlement repair, foundation raising, and complete basement wall repair with wall systems. Clay soil expansion and contraction cause most foundation issues in Cincinnati, especially in older neighborhoods.

Crawl Space Repair

Crawl spaces develop structural problems from moisture and settling. We handle crawl space structural repairs and foundation work specific to crawl space areas. Homes with crawl spaces often face damage from humidity and poor drainage.

Sump Pump Installation

We install and replace sump pumps to remove water from your basement. Emergency sump pump repair is available when your system fails. We also install backup systems for homes in flood-prone areas. Sump pumps are essential for basements in low-lying areas near the Ohio River and in flood zones around Hamilton and Fairfield.

Drainage Systems

We install interior French drain systems, exterior French drains, and drain tile systems. Our foundation drainage and yard drainage systems redirect water away from your home. Proper drainage is critical on hillsides and in clay soils that don’t drain naturally.

Crawl Space Encapsulation

We encapsulate crawl spaces with vapor barrier installation to block ground moisture. Our crawl space waterproofing services include dehumidifier installation to control humidity levels. Encapsulation is critical where moisture and humidity problems are common in crawl spaces.
