Basement Waterproofing in St. John, IN
We design interior and exterior systems that address St. John’s clay-heavy soils, freeze–thaw cycles, and high water tables. If you’re seeing wall dampness, floor cracks, efflorescence, or a musty odor, we tailor a solution that can include interior perimeter drain tile, wall/footing protection, sealed vapor barriers, and proper discharge routing to move water away from your home. Our goal is not only to stop current leaks but to reduce hydrostatic pressure, prevent mold growth, and keep your basement dry season after season.

Crawl Space Encapsulation & Repair in St. John, IN
St. John crawl spaces often suffer from moisture intrusion, wood rot, and pest activity that can impact indoor air quality and energy bills. We encapsulate with durable vapor barriers, seal vents and gaps, repair or sister damaged joists as needed, and add drainage or sump protection where water accumulates. By controlling humidity and isolating the home from damp soil conditions, we help protect floors from sagging, eliminate musty odors, and create a cleaner, healthier environment. Learn more
Foundation Stabilization in St. John, IN
Bowing, leaning, or cracked walls can result from expansive soils and poor drainage common around St. John homes. After a detailed inspection, we recommend the right reinforcement system—carbon fiber straps for low-profile, high-tensile restraint; steel I-beams for adjustable bracing; or wall anchors to counter lateral movement. These repairs are engineered for your wall type and site conditions to halt progression, improve safety, and preserve the structure with minimal disruption. Learn more
Helical Piers in St. John, IN
When foundations settle—often noticeable as stair-step cracks, sticky doors, or sloping floors—helical piers transfer the load to competent strata below the active soil layer. We torque-monitor each pier for verifiable capacity, then carefully attempt lift and stabilization to help restore elevations where feasible. This permanent deep-foundation solution is ideal for additions, porches, and full structures experiencing settlement in St. John’s variable soils.

Egress Window Installation in St. John, IN
Bring light, ventilation, and code-compliant safety to finished basements with professionally installed egress windows and wells. We handle foundation cutting, well and drain integration, and interior finishing details so the new opening remains watertight and durable. Homeowners appreciate the added resale value, natural daylight, and peace of mind that comes from a compliant secondary escape route
Foundation Crack Repair in St. John, IN
Cracks can admit water and signal stress in your foundation walls. We assess whether a crack is structural or non-structural, then apply the appropriate repair—epoxy injection to weld structural cracks or polyurethane injection to stop active leaks. Our approach seals the full depth of the wall to help prevent future seepage and to protect finishes, storage, and mechanicals from moisture damage.
Yard Drainage & Water Management in St. John, IN
Surface pooling, downspout washouts, and soggy lawns often point to grading and collection issues that also threaten your foundation. We design practical water-management plans using French drains, downspout extensions, catch basins, and re-grading to direct runoff safely away. By decreasing soil saturation and hydrostatic pressure at the foundation, these upgrades help keep basements dry and landscaping intact.
Sump Pump & Battery Backup Systems in St. John, IN
A dependable pumping system is your last line of defense during heavy rains and power outages. We install high-capacity pumps, sealed lids, check valves, and dedicated discharge lines with ice-guard style protections, then pair them with battery backups for continuity when the power fails. If your existing pump short-cycles, runs continuously, or is more than a decade old, we can inspect, service, or replace it to ensure year-round protection.
Basement Drain Tile Systems in St. John, IN
Interior and exterior drain tile relieve water pressure at the footing and along the wall base by capturing groundwater and directing it to the sump pit. We select the right configuration for your foundation type—block, poured concrete, or stone—and your water entry patterns. Properly installed drain tile helps stop seepage at cove joints and cracks, reduces wall deterioration, and creates a controlled path for water to exit the home.
