Basement Waterproofing for Orchard Hill homeowners
Orchard Hill is rural Spalding County, red clay over rock. That combination is the problem in one line. Water soaks into the clay, reaches the rock, and stops going down. From there it moves sideways through the soil, and on a lot with a house on it that sideways path often ends at a foundation wall.
The properties out here are large and have no storm drainage, so everything that lands on the lot has to leave through the ground. During a wet stretch there is more water in the upper soil than it can hold, and the backfill zone around a foundation fills first because it is looser than the ground around it.
We give the water a route. Perimeter drain tile at the footing collects it, a sump lifts it, and with acreage available the discharge can run far enough that it does not return. Outside, we correct grade and get roof water piped away from the house. Then the wall gets sealed and the cracks get treated. Photos and a fixed written price before work begins.
Orchard Hill homeowners get the same scope every time, priced in writing before a crew books the date.
