Last spring I bought a foreclosed property intending to remodel and resell it. Upon further inspection, the basement walls were bowed and water was entering the basement through the foundation. The problem had to be fixed so that I could sell the home confident that the new owners wouldn’t have any problems. Knowing that repair information would go in the home disclosure, I turned to Eco-Seal, the only company to provide a reliable and long-lasting solution. Their team of knowledgeable and experienced installers, as well as their 30-year transferrable warranty, assured me that the work would be done right and made to last.


Eco-Seal started the job by excavating around the house, but after the first day the weather turned and it started to rain. The forecast didn’t look good. Despite the challenging conditions, Eco-Seal was committed to completing the job on-schedule. They installed power braces to mend the bowed walls and used a full gravel backfill to reduce future soil pressure on the foundation.


To minimize damage to the yard, they brought in a telebelt to backfill around the basement without using heavy equipment. The entire neighborhood came out to watch Eco-Seal’s skilled team backfill over the roof of the house! It was incredible.


Despite their best efforts, the heavy rains meant that some yard damage was unavoidable, and I was worried that I would need to tend to this on my own. Instead, Eco-Seal offered to return at a later date to regrade the yard at no cost to me.


From start to finish, and even beyond, Eco-Seal exceeded my expectations in every way. I was able to present the home for sale with the confidence that the new owners would have a dry, worry-free basement for years to come.

When Jesse and Chelsea were preparing to purchase their new home near Akron, they scheduled a standard home inspection, which didn’t reveal any issues. Unfortunately, when they moved in it became clear that there had been leaks in the basement, which the previous owners had tried unsuccessfully to remedy with DRYLOK and then covered up with lots of boxes.

Jason purchased the home that he grew up in from his parents, knowing that they had been having water issues for years, but also knowing that he wanted to stop the problem. His hope was to finish the basement and add living space to the home, so he needed to get it remedied.

Andy did the good turn of purchasing a house for his daughter, but soon found that there were some issues. At the back of the house, there was a large hill that was exerting pressure on the foundation and pushing it in about six inches, rendering the structure unstable.

Sometimes the solution to your problems is right under your nose. Jeremy, a photographer who captures images for our website and some of our other marketing materials, has slowly been getting an education about all that Eco-Seal has to offer: waterproofing, foundation repair, french drains, basement exits and windows, and more. As he was doing some renovations to his home in Canton, getting ready to put it on the market, Jeremy noticed water along the basement wall at the front of his home. Thankfully, he knew exactly who to call, and our Eco-Seal team was quickly on the scene.
