Basement Waterproofing for Resale Value in Booneville, MS
Challenge
Client: Lasonya S., Booneville, Mississippi
Service: Basement Waterproofing (2-Stage System)
Objective: Prevent Water Intrusion & Increase Home Resale Value
The Challenge: A Leaking Basement Threatens Home Value
Lasonya S. and her husband, Booneville residents with big dreams, are preparing to sell their current home within the next year. With land already purchased and plans to build their dream home far from the noise of neighbors, one major issue stands in their way: a leaking basement.
The leak only shows up after three or more days of continuous rain, but when it does, it’s no small trickle—it’s a significant amount of water. The front basement wall, which is the only wall below grade, is the source of the intrusion. Behind that wall sits a den where their kids play video games, a bedroom, and a closet that offers the only visible access to the concrete block foundation.
Because the basement walls are hidden behind wood paneling, most of the damage isn’t visible until it's too late. Lasonya and her husband were proactive, wanting to protect their investment and ensure a smooth sale by tackling the root of the issue with professional help.
Solution
The Solution: A Monolithic Footing & Two-Stage Waterproofing System
Upon inspection, we measured the bottom block at 8 inches, a strong indication of a monolithic foundation. Based on this structure and the severity of the water intrusion, we proposed and installed a two-stage waterproofing system to provide reliable, long-term waterproofing.
To access the necessary area, our crew entered through the closet wall in the basement bedroom. The homeowners were fully aware that this wall would need to be removed and later replaced as part of the overall improvement. Their flexibility and clear communication made the process smooth from start to finish.
This repair not only resolves the immediate concern of water intrusion but also adds tremendous resale value. Potential buyers will have peace of mind knowing the basement is dry, stable, and protected by a professionally installed drainage system.
Looking Ahead: A Dream Home on the Horizon
With their current home secure and ready for market, Lasonya and her family are one step closer to their dream home on newly acquired land in Booneville. By investing in professional basement waterproofing, they’ve ensured a better return when it comes time to sell—and one less headache for future buyers.
