Basement Foundation Repair
Cracks in your basement walls are never a good thing. Water can seep in through the cracks damaging the basement. We keep the water out with professional epoxy injections. Cracks can also mean bowing basement walls or a damaged settling foundation. We fix the issue with steel I-beams and carbon fiber strips. Blue Umbrella is NJ's trusted basement foundation repair company.
Crawl Space Encapsulation
Your crawl space is a breeding ground for humidity, water, bugs, and rodents, which may lead to costly problems and poor indoor air quality. We protect you and your home with full New Jersey crawl space encapsulation and crawl space waterproofing services including a specialty crawl space sump pump and dehumidifier. Your crawl space stays clean and dry.
Dehumidifier Installations
High humidity, indoor air quality problems, and mold growth go hand in hand. If humidity is wreaking havoc on your basement or crawl space, Blue Umbrella installs crawl space and basement dehumidifiers that maintain the correct level of humidity in the space, helping keep your home dry, safe, and allergen-free. A proper dehumidifier completes a waterproofing system.
Waterproofing Maintenance
A key aspect of basement waterproofing is making sure that the system in your NJ home is always functioning properly. We offer regular checkups and comprehensive inspections of your sump pump, dehumidifier, and drainage system, replacing worn parts. Having a basement waterproofing maintenance plan ensures your basement always stays safe and dry.
