Dependable Basement Waterproofing and Crawl Space Repair Contractor Serving Yale

Signs of a wet basement can be found throughout the home, even in the upper levels: musty smells, a decrease in air quality and energy efficiency, peeling or bubbling paint, buckling hardwood floors, and mold or mildew growth. Whether you have minimal water damage or a full-on flood, call HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair to repair existing damage and install long-term solutions in your basement, such as:

  • Perimeter drainage systems
  • Doorway drainage systems
  • Waterproof wall and floor products

  • Frozen discharge line prevention
  • And more!

Crawl spaces that are damaged or improperly constructed can also leave your home vulnerable to moisture damage, high energy bills, and pest infestations. Without adequate structural support, some crawl spaces can even sink and cause shifting floors and walls in the upper levels of your home. HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair addresses and corrects damaged, ill-fitting crawl spaces across Yale with the following services:

  • Crawl Space Insulation
  • Crawl Space Drainage
  • Crawl Space Encapsulation
  • Crawl Space Structural Repair

Expert Foundation Repair, Concrete Repair, & Concrete Leveling Services in Yale

A damaged foundation can’t properly support your home and should be addressed at the first sign of trouble: bowing walls, cracked walls or floors, tilted chimneys, sloping floors, and pooling water, just to name a few. While foundation problems are an unavoidable part of homeownership, we want to make the repair process as stress-free as possible for you. Our team of highly trained foundation repair experts will safely restore the strength of your home’s foundation with our proven effective solutions:

  • Foundation piers - to stabilize your foundation against settlement with minimal disturbance to your home. Comes with a 25-year manufacturer warranty.
  • Foundation wall repair - to fix cracks, correct bowing or tilting walls, and add reliable support to keep your foundation walls stable.
  • Crawl space support posts - using the SmartJack® crawl space support system to provide support for sagging/undersized beams, restore stability, and correct sagging floor joists.

HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair also offers complete concrete repair services that restore and protect concrete inside and outside of your Saint Clair County home, including concrete driveways and sidewalks. Homeowners can benefit from our innovative concrete sealant that permanently bonds with one application to protect against UV rays and moisture for long-lasting protection on new and old concrete. If you have sloping concrete floors in your home, we will restore them with the PolyLevel concrete leveling system, a faster and longer-lasting alternative to mudjacking. PolyLevel cures in as little as 24 hours, adds very little weight as it lifts, and is far less messy than traditional mudjacking, making it ideal to use on interior slabs.

Job Stories From Yale, MI
Yale, Michigan Home Renovations Saved by Basement Crack Repair and Dehumidifier

A family had just bought a new home in Yale, Michigan, that they had begun renovating. During the renovation process, they discovered their unfinished basement had water leaking in through an unknown source.
HomeSpec quickly scheduled out Keith Brown to make an appearance, meeting with the family, answering questions and helping inspect the renovation process thus far.
A series of small hairline cracks were observed throughout the basement allowing water to slowly leak through. Cracks were fixed using our innovative polyurethane sealant called FlexiSpan, which not only seals the cracks but can flex dynamically along with the natural movement of the wall to ensure a long-term waterproof seal.
However, since the problem was left untreated for so long, the high humidity levels in the air became a concern going forward. High humidity being able to cause damage to stored items, wood rot, and affect indoor air quality of the entire home due to the stack effect. The stack effect relates to the fact that air flows from the bottom of a house, usually cold and damp, and flows out the top, spreading through the entirety of the house. Allowing damp air to continuously run through the house can also pose health risks, particularly when the house is undergoing changes such as renovations.
To counter this problem, Keith suggested the installation of a proper dehumidifier for the basement. After a detailed discussion, the new homeowners decided to opt for the SaniDry Sedona system, a size-efficient solution that is small enough to fit crawlspaces as well as basements, while being strong enough to dry large areas at a lower cost than other dehumidifiers on the market. The SaniDry system allows for automatic drainage - so there’s no need to empty the reservoir, and is capable of humidity sensing as well, meaning it’ll automatically shut off when desired levels are met, while filtering harmful irritants. The Sedona allows for a long-lasting, yet low maintenance solution.
With all their needs met, and concerns handled, the family was able to continue renovations and eventually fully furnish the basement into an entertainment room without further worry of water damage.

Vapor Barrier Installed in Basement in Yale, MI

This Yale homeowner is a previous customer of HomeSpec and contacted us again to have a vapor barrier installed into the basement walls to go along with the interior drainage system they had installed the year prior. They were getting ready to sell their 60-year-old home, so they wanted to make sure the basement was completely waterproofed and taken care of. 

Our crew installed the CleanSpace vapor barrier, which pairs perfectly with the drainage system. The liner will block water vapor from entering the basement, and instead direct it down into the drain. The drain will then filter the water into the sump pump, which pumps the water away from the home. With the bright white appearance, it adds a clean look to the basement. The next homeowners will be happy with the 25-year warranty too!

Pests & Water Problems in Crawl Space in Yale, MI

Animals like opossums and even skunks were constantly getting into this homeowner's crawl space through small openings that weren't sealed. Water would also get into the crawl space, causing damage to the insulation and the wood. The homeowner contacted HomeSpec to see what we could do for him. 

Our crawl space specialist assured the homeowner that we can restore the value of his home with crawl space encapsulation. Not only will it seal the crawl off from the outside to deter pests and water, but it will protect what's inside. The vapor barrier prevents water vapor from coming up through the ground into the crawl space, and then into the home. The dehumidifier control the moisture levels to prevent mold and mildew.
