Even homes with solid foundations and no cracks on the basement walls, the fact is that basements get wet. Maryland and Harford County will never experience the climate of places like Arizona or New Mexico, so moisture, humidity, and rainwater will always be with us.
And regardless of the soil type around your foundation, almost no basement is ever completely free of moisture of some kind.
Even if your sump pump is rarely used and any cracks in your foundation are quickly repaired, many homes in our area are still subject to moisture. This could be in the form of trapped, humid air, excess groundwater, or rainwater coming from poorly placed downspouts. And one of the more dangerous results can be mold and mildew growth.
According to the EPA, molds produce allergens (substances that can cause allergic reactions) and irritants. Inhaling or touching mold or mold spores may cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. And damp or wet basements are perfect environments for the growth of mold and mildew spores.
Fortunately, basement waterproofing can be the perfect solution for maintaining a dry basement.

"I was very pleased with the service. The team was very professional, prompt, clean, and courteous. They had no problems explaining equipment operation and answering questions. I highly recommend BWN." - Lisa F.
"What a company... a pleasure from beginning to end! No games, just honest, multiple professional solutions for a complicated situation from a wonderful team who got it done and finished with a lifetime guarantee. BWN had done my mother's home over 10 years ago and as guaranteed she has had a dry basement ever since. Jeremy, our first contact who came out and did the assessment was exemplary with our questions and not the typical hard sell. He gave us the best solutions and time to assess, and is a wonderful representative of this company. Eamonn and the crew were amazing, thorough, updated us regularly, always had time for questions, walked through the fine details and left the basement cleaner than before. Totally thrilled with everything this company and their team has done for us. We highly recommend them!!" - Cathie K.
"Glad I called BWN. I had a small ineffective drain outside my walkout basement that often caused my patio to flood and even caused water to get into my home sometimes. They came out and installed a much better drain. Everyone at BWN was responsive, courteous, and nice. They also quoted me a much more reasonable price than I received elsewhere. If I have any future basement or drainage needs in the future I’m definitely calling them." - Chay H.

While there are never any guarantees, typically a home will increase in value over time. In fact, hot real estate market swings aside, it’s been determined that, historically, a home’s value appreciates around 3.7 percent per year.
However, time also causes damage to both the exterior and interior of homes.
Paint peels, roofs need to be replaced, storms damage trees and fences, and your floors, countertops, and fixtures become dated. The reality of homeownership is that regular and consistent maintenance and upkeep is required to prevent and the normal effects of time, weather, and aging.
Unfortunately, this is true for a home’s basement and foundation, as well.
Why do foundations have issues? Most commonly they are due to the movement of soil beneath the foundation. Often this can even lead to structural damage in various degrees. While it is true that a house will “settle” over time, the actual cause of most foundation problems arising from soil movement is water.
How does water create foundation issues? Excessive amounts of groundwater will call cause the soil to swell, for example. On the other hand, if the soil around the foundation has too little water, it will shrink. Either of these physical dynamics can cause damage to the foundation of a house. And if shifting soil due to swelling or shrinkage occurs primarily in one area of the foundation, it can create serious problems.
Older homes, unfortunately, are more likely to develop these types of foundation issues. It’s difficult to gauge when a homeowner might begin to experience foundation issues from water since there are several factors involved such as the quality of the building’s construction and what type of materials were used for the foundation.
