Foundation and waterproofing work in Butler
Butler grew up around the railroad, and a lot of its homes are modest older houses built for working families. Their basements work hard too. They hold the washer and dryer, the chest freezer, shelves of paint cans and holiday boxes. Nobody spends evenings down there, so the first sign of trouble tends to be a soggy cardboard box or a new crack spotted while switching a load of laundry. Block walls in Butler have been through a lot of frost and wet clay, and many are showing it.
Our shop is in Waukesha, a short drive from Butler, and this kind of basement is familiar ground for us. We seal cracks, brace block walls with carbon fiber straps or steel beams, and handle water with interior drain tile and a sump pump with battery backup. Exterior waterproofing is an option when you want to stop water at the source. We also seal walls, lay vapor barriers, add support beams and cut egress windows. When the Village of Butler requires a permit, we pull it.
