Why Foundation Piering is Critical to Effective Basement Repairs
If you are thinking of renovating your basement to make a guest room, a “man-cave,” a rec room, or some other functional space, you will want to make sure that your new investment is protected from leaks and other compromises to your foundation. Foundation piering will prevent costly damage occurring to your new space. But in a more basic way, foundation piering will guard against damage to the foundation itself, which could create a major expense down the road. If you have noticed dampness or a musty smell in your basement, it could be an indicator of future problems. Tom’s Basement Waterproofing is happy to determine the potential for or current extent of damage and offer our recommendations about how best to repair your foundation.

There are many potential causes for needing foundation piering for adequate basement waterproofing. Most builders do good work, but it is not uncommon for their good work to be compromised by weather events or settling. If your builder did not do the best job in building your foundation, you may find evidence years later with dampness or leaks in your basement. In some cases, the best solution is to combine basement repairs with foundation piering.
