Basement Waterproofing Roanoke, VA

Do you see water coming through your basement walls when it rains? Are your floors always damp? Do you smell something musty that won’t go away? These problems don’t fix themselves. They lead to mold, cracks in your foundation, and a home that’s worth less money.

Clay soil and rain from the mountains push water against your foundation. Water gets in, and waiting makes the damage worse. It also costs more to fix later.

We put in systems that stop water before it gets inside. You get interior drains, sump pumps, vapor barriers, and foundation fixes that work for your home. Your basement stays dry, your foundation stays safe, and our warranty protects your work. Get your free inspection and written estimate.

About bros

Why Roanoke Basements Stay Wet

Clay soil in the Roanoke Valley gets bigger when it’s wet. It gets smaller when it’s dry. Rain from the Blue Ridge keeps groundwater high all year. Older homes in places like Old Southwest and Grandin Village were built before we had good drainage rules. The result: wet basements after storms, cracks that get bigger over time, and crawl spaces that stay damp.

Water damage gets worse over time. Small leaks turn into big floods. Tiny cracks get wider when water freezes and thaws. Damp crawl spaces grow mold and make floors sag. Waiting costs more money and hurts what your home is worth.

We fix the real problem, not just what you see. We’ve worked all over the valley in Salem, Vinton, Cave Spring, and Hollins. We know what works in Roanoke. You get solutions made for your home, not a plan that’s the same for everyone. CNBC covers helpful steps for protecting homes from flooding if you want more to read. Bros Basement Waterproofing uses a local crew that does it right. Our warranty backs every job we do.

Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Services

We fix every kind of water problem and foundation issue your home has. These solutions fix the real cause, not just cover it up for a while.

Basement Waterproofing

Do you see water on your basement floor after rain? Are your walls damp and won’t dry? Do you smell something musty? Do you see white powder on your block walls or stains where the floor meets the wall? We put in drains inside that catch water before it floods your space. Sump pumps take it out on their own. Vapor barriers block moisture. Wall systems send water away safely. You get a dry basement all year, a safe foundation, and no more water coming in.

Foundation Repair

Do you have sideways cracks in your walls? Do you have up and down cracks that keep growing? Are your block walls bowing or leaning? Are there gaps between your wall and floor? You might see doors that won’t close right, cracks in your floors, or zigzag cracks in the spaces between bricks. We use carbon fiber, steel anchors, crack filling, helical piers, and underpinning to stop the damage. Your foundation stops moving. It gets stable again. The structure is fixed.

Crawl Space Repair

Are your floors bouncy or sagging? Do you see cracks in the drywall above your crawl space? Are your floors sloping? Can you see damage to the floor beams? These happen when water rots wood, support posts sink, or your home needs better support. We put in extra beams, sister joists, posts you can adjust, and foundation piers where you need them. Your floors get level. The bounce goes away. You get solid support.

Sump Pump Installation

Your sump pump is the most important part of your waterproofing system. It takes water out before it floods your space. We put in main pumps sized right for your home. We add battery backup systems, alarms, and pipes that carry water away. We can replace a broken pump, add backup power for storms, or put in a new system where you don’t have one. You get good equipment, the right size basin, and systems that work when you need them.

French Drain Systems

French drains are the underground pipes that stop water before it gets to your basement. We put in holey pipes around the edge of your foundation. They catch groundwater and send it away. Inside systems go under your basement floor along the footer. Outside systems go outside your foundation wall. They fix water coming through where the floor meets the wall. They fix pressure against your foundation. They fix water pooling around your home. You get drains that work all the time, no standing water, and a safe foundation.

Crawl Space Encapsulation

Do musty smells come up through your floors? Is the humidity high and you can’t control it? Do you see mold or standing water in your crawl space? Are your floors cold in winter? We seal your crawl space completely. We use thick vapor barriers on floors and walls. We seal vents. We add insulation to walls. We put in dehumidifiers. Your damp dirt crawl space becomes clean, dry, and controlled. You get cleaner air inside, lower power bills, safe floor beams, and no mold.
