This Ellicott City customer had a finished basement and they were looking to brighten up the space naturally. A great way to do so is with an Egress Window. We came out and installed out a 48x48 Slider Egress Window with a 48x66x48 Rockwell and Rockwell Cover.

In this basement in Ellicott City, MD, the owner was looking to get more light into the lower part of the home and a safer way out incase of emergencies. On the outside of the home we excavated soil down to the foundation of the home in order for us to install our Egress RockWell. This one piece design will seal out moisture and will never corrode or deteriorate keeping this install reliable overtime.

This customer wanted to finish their basement but first wanted to take care of replacing their leaking window. Since they were going to finish the basement, they decided not to replace the window with just another standard basement window but instead with an Egress. Egress windows allow in a lot of natural light and are also a means for a fast and safe exit during an emergency.

We installed a 48 x 48 Slider Egress window along with a 48" RockWell and Well Cover.

Basement Waterproofing & Crawl Space Repair

Basements and crawl spaces consistently have issues with water, mold and rot. To prevent these problems from occurring in the future we install a patented interior drainage system.

The drainage system also works as part of crawl space encapsulation. 

We Provide:

  • Exclusive, Patented Products
  • Humidity Control
  • Egress Windows
You Receive:
  • Permanently Dry Basement

We also fix basement leaks with permanent basement leak repair. With our system in place there is no need to fear basement flooding. We want your basement to be safe for years so our work comes with a transferable lifetime dry-basement warranty. 

Foundation Repair & Concrete Leveling

Whatever the issue we are the trusted foundation repair contractor. Our foundation repair experts will visit your home, identify the issue and recommend the right solution. We provide permanent foundation repairs using non-invasive methods. There is no need to tear up your entire yard to fix the foundation.

Repairs for:

We Use:

Job Stories From Ellicott City, MD
Solving Leaky Foundation Cracks in Ellicott City, MD

Recently, we had the privilege of helping a homeowner in Ellicott City, MD, who was troubled by noticeable cracks in the exterior stairs and wall of their basement. Understandably alarmed, the homeowner reached out to us, seeking the professional excellence of our teams to address these worrying signs of potential water damage and structural issues. Recognizing the urgency, our dedicated Customer Care team promptly arranged a comprehensive home inspection. A seasoned System Design Specialist from our Sales Team visited the home, meticulously examining the extent of the damage. Through this examination, we were able to diagnose the problem accurately and recommend a tailored, effective waterproofing solution that would not only remedy the current issues but also prevent future occurrences. Our proposed solution involved using our state-of-the-art products tailored specifically for waterproofing needs, ensuring long-lasting results and peace of mind for the homeowner. 

Basement Waterproofing in Ellicott City, MD

We recently had the pleasure of helping a homeowner in Ellicott City, MD, who was facing a frustrating and persistent issue with their basement. For quite some time, they noticed that one of their window wells was collecting water every time it rained, eventually leading to water leaking into the basement. Understandably, they were concerned as the problem seemed to be getting worse over time, threatening the comfort, safety, and value of their home. Our System Design Specialist was then dispatched to thoroughly inspect the home, diagnose the source of the problem, and recommend a solution tailored to their needs. After the inspection, it was clear that installing our SuperSump system would effectively address the water issues they were facing. 

Basement Windows in Ellicott City, MD

Recently, we had the opportunity to work on a unique project in Ellicott City, MD. The homeowner was excited about transforming their basement into a functional living space, which included adding a bedroom. Their vision was clear: they wanted to incorporate a new window egress for safety and natural light, and also desired a double door walkout to increase accessibility and enhance the basement's aesthetic appeal. After the homeowner reached out to our Customer Care team, we quickly set an appointment that fit their schedule. Our dedicated System Design Specialist then paid a visit for a thorough inspection. Although the homeowner didn't report any water or moisture issues, our specialist performed a comprehensive evaluation to ensure that the proposed changes wouldn't lead to future problems, especially considering the significant alterations to the basement's structure.
