Claymont's Basement Waterproofing Contractor

Basement Systems USA is the local, family owned contractor in Claymont for waterproofing, finishing, and crawl space repair. With over 75 years combined experience and a full-time, professional staff we are ready to serve you and improve your home. 

Basement Waterproofing & Crawl Space Repair in Claymont

Flooding, water seepage or even high humidity can quickly result in mold growth and water damage in your basement or crawl space. We prevent this from happening by installing an interior drainage system in the basement that is connected to a high volume sump pump. Any water that makes it to the basement is collected and pumped out of the home without you even noticing. 

Just like the basement, in the crawl space we similarly place a sump pump system and dehumidifier to prevent water issues. The entire area is encapsulated with vapor barrier to prevent mold growth. Our crawl space system comes with a 25-year warranty. 

We Provide:
  • Basement Waterproofing
  • Crawl Space Encapsulation
  • Exclusive, Patented Products
  • Humidity Control
  • Structural Repair
  • Basement Egress Windows
 You Receive:
  • Permanently Dry Basement
  • Clean Protected Crawlspace
  • Protection against Mold
  • Improved Home Value

If the walls of the basement or bowing inwards we install wall anchors or braces to straighten the walls. If the floor above the crawl space is sagging we install SmartJack support jacks to raise the floor back to a level position. Our Claymont waterproofing systems come with lifetime warranties. 

Basement Finishing & Remodeling in Claymont, DE

Waterproofing your basement prevents outside water from coming in but what if a pipe bursts or the water heater leaks inside the home. A newly finished basement done by your average contractor will mold and rot if there is an internal leak. You'll have to tear out your new basement! We fix this issue.

Our Products Include :
  • Waterproof, washable, insulated walls           
  • Mold-Resistant, No-Sag suspended ceiling
  • Modular carpet, tile & faux wood flooring
  • Basement egress windows
  • Energy-efficient, double-paned basement windows
  • Attractive Sunhouse basement window wells
  • French, bifold, louvre & six-paneled steel doors

Unlike the average Claymont contractor we use completely inorganic, waterproof materials. Even if the basement floods your walls and floors will not be damaged by the water. These waterproof products are patented and are built to create an attractive finished basement that lasts a lifetime.

Customer had plans to turn the basement into a Daycare, but before that could be done, the moisture collecting on the walls, had to be taken care of. We came out and installed a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier which will direct any water seepaing in through the walls, down to the drainage system. Not only does the vapor barrier direct moisture coming in from the outside, but is also a great way to prevent humidity in the basement.

Smart Jacks for Shifting Crawl Space Beam in Claymont, DE

Recently in Claymont, DE, we had a homeowner reach out with a noticeable issue. Their concern? A clearly shifting column in the crawl space beneath their house, which was even affecting the room above. Moldings dividing from the wall was a telltale sign something wasn't right down below. A System Design Specialist from our Sales Team made the trip to diagnose the issue. He found that the stability was compromised, but he offered the SmartJack support system. It’s a sturdy, reliable way to bring peace of mind back to a shaky foundation. 

Basement Waterproofing in Claymont, DE

Recently, a homeowner in Claymont, DE, faced a nuisance that many in older homes might find familiar. Their 1930s house, though recently flipped, harbored a nagging issue: a small leak in the basement storage area. Understanding the importance of safeguarding their home's integrity for years to come, they reached out to us, Basement Systems USA. From the start, our mission was clear—to provide this homeowner with a reliable, long-lasting solution while making the experience as seamless as possible. Our System Design Specialist, equipped with thorough diagnostic tools and a deep understanding of basement waterproofing, closely examined the situation. After a comprehensive inspection, the answer was to implement our WaterGuard interior drainage system coupled with the SuperSump sump pump system would perfectly address their needs. Our production team, consisting of a knowledgeable foreman and skilled installers, got straight to work. We meticulously installed the WaterGuard along the interior perimeter of the basement, a method designed to capture wall and floor seam water leaks with minimal invasiveness to the home. Paired with the reliable SuperSump, we ensured that the unwanted water would be efficiently pumped out, considerably reducing the risk of further leaks and potential mold issues. 

Basement Waterproofing in Claymont, DE

When a Claymont homeowner noticed their partially finished basement, dating back to 1948, was taking in water through the walls during rains, they knew it was time for a professional touch. Dealing with a home filled with memories and history, the last thing they wanted was water damage to claim their cherished space. Recognizing the urgency, they called us at Basement Systems USA. Our customer care team quickly set up an appointment for a comprehensive home inspection. Keeping in mind the home's age and the nature of the problem, our System Design Specialist conducted a thorough review. We recommended a foolproof solution that involved the installation of our WaterGuard drainage system along the interior perimeter of the basement walls, paired with a reliable SuperSump pump. This duo was chosen for its proven efficacy in handling heavy rainwater entry and ensuring it's efficiently pumped out, keeping the basement dry and intact. Our installation team, known for their precision and tidiness, went to work. Implementing the WaterGuard system required some finesse, particularly as it had to be installed around the basement’s existing footprint, a challenging task in an older home. The SuperSump pump installation complemented this by providing the much-needed horsepower to redirect incoming water.

We had an engineer check crawl space and discovered rotten beams. Got an estimate, it is very high and we can't get financing. Contractors all need money up front!

With all the heavy rain we've had the past 2 days our basement started leaking. We've been in the house for 2 years and it has never leaked before. One point of entry is around the gas line that comes in to our house. I saw water activity leaking from the seal around the pipe. There are a few other mystery spots that we can't tell where the water is coming from. We would like someone to come out and assess the situation and get a quote on what it would take to fix it. Thank you!
