Basement Waterproofing in Mentor, Ohio
Mentor has block and poured foundations of every age, and plenty of homes sitting on the flat, clay-heavy ground that holds water after a storm instead of letting it drain away. URAMZ Contractors fixes wet basements from the outside, where the water actually gets in — and we clean up after ourselves.
What we do in Mentor
Exterior basement waterproofing
We dig down to the footer, clean the wall, seal and coat it, then put the membrane on. That stops water where it gets in, instead of hiding it inside.
New drain tile
New pipe in clean stone at the base of the wall, so water is carried away from the house instead of sitting against it.
Grading and yard drainage
We reslope the ground so it falls away from the house, fix the low spots, and seed it so the yard looks finished.
Demolition and haul-away
Interior tear-outs, garage and structure demolition, and every bit of debris hauled away. Interior demolition runs all winter.
Signs your Mentor basement has a water problem
- A damp line or white chalky staining along the bottom of the wall
- Water after every heavy rain, in the same corner
- A musty smell that never leaves, even in summer
- Cracks that keep getting wider, or a wall that is bowing in
- Puddles that sit against the house in the yard
Any one of these is worth a look. We tell you honestly if it is a small fix.

Questions from Mentor homeowners
- How much does basement waterproofing cost in Mentor?
- Every basement is different, so we give a free written estimate after we see the wall. The price depends on how much wall has to be opened, how deep the footer is, and whether new drain tile is needed. Call (440) 361-0504 and we will come out.
- Do you do inside or outside waterproofing?
- Outside. Paint and coatings on the inside cannot hold back water that is pushing in from the soil. We open the wall from the outside, seal it, and fix the drainage.
- When can I get an estimate in Mentor?
- Free estimates are Friday, Saturday and Sunday. We answer emergency calls 24 hours a day, seven days a week, at (440) 361-0504.
- Do you work in winter?
- Yes. In winter our crews focus on interior demolition and tear-outs, and we still take emergency calls.
