Foundation Repairs, Sump Pumps & Concrete Lifting by Ox Foundation Solutions
Here are the services we offer at Ox Foundation Solutions:
- Basement Waterproofing – It's important not to ignore signs of water infiltration in your basement, such as musty odors, peeling paint, or white powdery deposits (efflorescence) on walls. Basement waterproofing helps protect you from water damage and losses, and it also prevents the growth of mold and mildew. Ox Foundations’ basement waterproofing solutions include drainage systems, sump pumps, dehumidification, and repairs.
- Foundation Repair – Cracks or shifting in the foundation is caused by a variety of factors, and is a common problem in homes throughout North America. While small cracks are unlikely to cause any major issues, they can grow over time, causing structural issues and even allow moisture to seep in. Ox Foundation Solutions can identify your foundation problems and apply the necessary repairs.
- Concrete Leveling & Lifting – The most common solution for a sinking slab is to demolish it and have it replaced entirely. With Ox Foundation Solutions, you’ll find that this is an unnecessary expense. We use OxPoly®, a concrete-lifting and leveling measure that is more cost-effective and less disruptive. It works on sidewalks, basement floors, driveways, patios, garage floors, pool decks and more.
- Crawl Space Repairs – A wet or musty smell emanating from your crawl space can be an indicator of a deeper issue. Roughly 40% of the air you breathe on the first floor comes directly from your crawl space or basement. That means you could be facing a serious health risk if mold growth is present in those locations. Ox Foundation Solutions puts an end to these issues with a variety of fixes for common crawl space problems, such as drainage systems for standing water, crawl space encapsulation, and crawl space dehumidification.
- Sump Pump Installations – If you have a basement or crawl space beneath the first floor of your home, installing a sump pump can protect you from plumbing leaks and potential water damage. Especially effective during long periods of heavy rain, sump pumps are useful when groundwater rises through cracks in your foundation, or when water is not properly drained from your gutter system. Ox Foundation Solutions additionally offers backup battery systems for your sump pump to keep your basement dry even through power outages.
We also offer Moisture Control solutions and Mold Remediation services.
