BASEMENT REPAIR &
WATERPROOFING SERVICES

Crack Repairs

Crack Repairs

Our team will analyze the type of crack plaguing your foundation and properly repair according to need. Soil in and around Milwaukee is made up largely of clay—a soil type known for expanding when wet. This expansion can add pressure to foundation walls, causing cracking. Dun-Rite specializes in horizontal cracks, step cracks, and vertical cracks. Dun-Rite will work to identify structurally damaged concrete block and will replace the damaged block, resolving the cause of the issue.

Drain Tile Repair

Drain Tile Repair

Drain tiles that have failed can cause water to pool in your basement, causing damage as well as stress and worry for homeowners. Drain tiles are integral in basement waterproofing because they help carry water out of your home. As time passes, drain tiles can fail due to many reasons. Dun-Rite will troubleshoot your drain tile issues and specify which repairs will ensure proper drainage in your basement.

Waterproofing

Waterproofing

Water retained in clay soil can cause wet walls in your basement and/or water seepage at the base of your foundation walls. Dun-Rite will expertly waterproof your exterior foundation walls to keep the water from entering your basement. Our team will analyze the cause of your basement dampness and make necessary repairs—typically consisting of interior drain tile replacement or installation of drain tile, if not already present.

Wall Reinforcement

Wall Reinforcement

A strong foundation is critical to the structure of your home. Pressure on foundation walls from soil and/or water can make foundation walls weaken over time. Dun-Rite will fix weakened walls using industry recommended engineered steel support restraints along the bowed or leaning wall, without excavation.

Wall Straightening

Wall Straightening

Slanting foundation walls can mean trouble for the structure of your home. Dun-Rite will evaluate your buckling and slanted walls and work to straighten them. Our team follows strict industry standards, using a variety of methods to not only straighten foundation walls, but to also ensure that they remain straight for the long haul. This includes soil excavation, tile drain repair/installation, making sure grading is at the proper pitch, and reinforcing all excavated walls with steel reinforcing columns.
