Basement Waterproofing in Andover, MN

Review Logo 4.8 (507)

In Andover, basements are particularly vulnerable to water damage due to the area's significant rainfall, which averages around 30 inches annually. The local soil composition, often clay-rich, retains moisture and can lead to increased hydrostatic pressure against basement walls. This pressure can cause cracks, leaks, and ultimately water damage, manifesting as damp walls, flooding, or mold growth. To safeguard your basement, Innovative Basement Authority (IBA) offers effective solutions such as sump pumps, dehumidifiers, and interior drainage systems designed to keep your space dry and protected.

Innovative Basement Authority, a Groundworks Company, is dedicated to assisting homeowners in Andover with their foundation repair, basement waterproofing, crawl space encapsulation, and concrete needs. We prioritize delivering high-quality home repair solutions and personalized service throughout Minnesota. Our team of fully trained technicians utilizes industry-leading products and provides nationally backed warranties to ensure your foundation or basement is restored to optimal condition.

"My foundation was separating in my garage. I called Innovative Basement Authority out of Rush City, Minnesota. The salesman, Logan was very knowledgeable and did a great job communicating. The work was scheduled and the crew came right on time. The crew was very friendly and professional. They worked hard and completed the work in good time, leaving everything in great shape. The final bill was even less than the estimate! I had a very good experience with this company from start to finish and would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of a basement or foundation repair."

Common Causes of your Basement Problems in Andover

Hydrostatic Pressure

When groundwater accumulates around your foundation, it exerts pressure on basement walls and floors, leading to cracks and water seepage.

Poor Drainage Systems

Inadequate drainage systems fail to divert water away from the foundation, resulting in water accumulation that can compromise structural integrity.

Foundation Cracks

Natural settling or poor construction practices can cause foundation cracks, allowing water to penetrate your basement.

Gutter and Downspout Issues

Improper installation or clogging of gutters and downspouts directs water toward the foundation, exacerbating water infiltration problems.

High Water Table

During heavy rainfall or snowmelt, a high water table exerts pressure against basement walls, causing water to seep through cracks or joints.

Plumbing Leaks

Leaks from plumbing systems can saturate the soil around the foundation, leading to erosion and weakening of the structure.

Understanding these common causes can help you take proactive steps to protect your basement from water damage and maintain the integrity of your home.
