Basement waterproofing in Milan, Illinois

Milan sits along the Rock River, south of the larger Quad Cities, with older and newer homes side by side.

The homes

Across Rock Island County, Census estimates put about 31% of homes at more than 75 years old, and Milan has its share of older houses next to newer subdivisions. Age sets the starting point for how likely a basement is to need drainage help.

The ground and the water

Near the Rock River, low ground and a high water table mean basements can see groundwater after heavy rain or when the river is up. Flat lots drain slowly, and the water stays against the foundation longer.

What usually fixes it

Our first step is to work out where the water comes from. Groundwater, surface runoff and a plumbing leak look alike from inside the basement, and each needs a different fix.

Our services: basement waterproofing, emergency repair and lawn drainage. Our drainage systems carry a lifetime warranty.
