Damage in your Morgantown basement can show up in many forms, but they are typically obvious problem signs that you will easily notice. Look for flooding, floor cracks, wall cracks, leaky windows, flooded stairs, mold, and efflorescence in your basement, and keep an eye out for elevated humidity and musty odors throughout your home. These problems will not go away on their own, and they will get worse over time, become more hazardous, and cost more to fix. That is why catching them early and promptly seeking professional assistance is so important.
What are the Causes of Basement Damage in Morgantown?
Water can accumulate in your basement for numerous reasons, including a faulty sump pump or plumbing leaks inside your home. However, the most common causes stem from Morgantown’s weather and soil conditions. Varied soil types, including Monongahela silt loam, expansive clay, and well-drained sandy loam, exist throughout Morgantown and northern West Virginia. All of them can be negatively affected by the 43 inches of rain and 28 inches of snow that fall throughout the year in Morgantown. During periods of heavy, consistent rain, water collects in the soil next to the basement walls, forms a “clay bowl” and results in hydrostatic pressure that leads to wall cracks and leaks. Additionally, your home could have improper foundation drainage and clogged gutters and downspouts.

Chris Snyder, Jake, and Jon of Baker Waterproofing did an outstanding job on the installation of our system! They were superbly professional, courteous, and helpful to us. They worked hard, quickly, and with as minimal disruption to our household as possible. There was one spot where they had to bore through the exterior wall through very recent, expensive, and high quality stone facing… they did a FANTASTIC job of that, totally minimizing any damage or disfigurement to the facing. We were extremely grateful for that! We thought the job would take all day but they finished before that and did an admirable job of completely cleaning up the work site. We heartily recommend them!

I received a courtesy call 45 minutes before they arrive. Eric Davis, Kyler Crawford and Darvon Durham worked efficiently and very clean as the job went along and they were very courteous. They answered all my questions and no one ran any power tools while I was talking. The finish work looked perfect and final finish work walk trough was perfect as well. Now all I need is the rain to put the final stamp of approval which I know I’ll be satisfied as well. Bill Paul

My basement walls had big cracks and were leaning in. I was concerned that I could be looking at collapsed walls in the future. Lucas and Steven Selleck, Dalton and Maleke Smith took good care of my problem clearly recognizing the actual cause. I had the basement waterproofed by another company 10 years prior. They had failed to install weep holes in the walls and although I no longer had water in the basement the walls were filled with water which was affecting the wall structure. By the time the crew left I had confidence that my walls were secure and water pressure relieved. The crew was professional, knowledgeable and explained what was happening and why. I saw with my own eyes the stream of water coming out of the walls. Now it is repaired and I am so very happy that Bakers waterproofing was the company I called and selected for the job. I feel much relieved. Thank you Bakers Waterproofing!

We experienced damage to the sill plate and joists in our crawlspace due to a leaking waterline to a refrigerator. Once Jeff and Scott inspected the crawlspace, they got things moving quickly. Just two days after the plan was devised, Brian, Darren and Garrett were on the scene replacing the sill plate and sistering the damaged joists. The office staff was quick and efficient. All in all, it was both a pleasure and a relief to be treated so well by your company.
