Unexpected Benefits – Millersburg, OH

 Unexpected Benefits – Millersburg, OH

As my twin sons started to grow out of childhood, my wife and I realized that they needed more space for themselves. The basement seemed like an obvious solution, but turning it into an up-to-code living space presented us with a few challenges.


For starters, our basement had no fire-escape route other than the main staircase inside the house. There was also a section that was wet all the time, no matter what we did. Neither of these conditions was something we knew how to solve, so we called the Eco-Seal team to remedy them.


Eco-Seal started by digging up our basement and waterproofing along the constantly wet area. Next, they installed a new exterior doorway and stairwell, complete with block foundation walls and concrete stairs.


With these necessary renovations complete, we were able to start using our basement as a living space, and it proved even more inviting and useful than we ever expected. With a secondary entrance, we’re able to come and go in the winter without tracking snow into the house. We can take laundry straight from the machine to the clothesline outside. We can keep the mess of our pool out of the main part of our house.


The list goes on, but the bottom line is this: we hired Eco-Seal to do a very specific job and thought that would be the end of it. But with their exceptional service and high-quality craftsmanship, their team enhanced our house in ways we never imagined. The home value has gone up, usability has improved, and safety is no longer a concern, all thanks to Eco-Seal.

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.
