Pipe Penetration
Gas, water, and sewer lines have pipes that go in and out of your basement walls. The point at which the lines enter the walls have a seal around them that is added during the time of construction. As time goes on, this seal can become weak, and moisture from the soil outside the wall can seep inside. Additionally, if the pipe cracks in the wall, water will be able to get inside through this area, as well. In fact, studies have indicated that these areas are often the weakest spots on a foundation/basement wall.
Epoxy Injection
To take care of the problem and prevent seepage, St. Louis Basement Pros can re-fill the area where the seal was initially with epoxy material. The material will cure and harden quickly, putting a stop to moisture intrusion once and for all.
This solution has proven to be much more effective than trying to use caulk or cement as epoxy is a much stronger material.
With a dry basement, you will be able to safely use the area for storage, or you may consider finishing the area.

Foundation Repair
The foundation repair staff was excellent, and they were very efficient hard workers. I am very pleased with the great finished product.
Basement Waterproofing
We were very satisfied with the employees and the work that was done. All the work was done in a timely and conscientious manner. They seem to take great pride in the work they provide and they cleaned up afterwards. The price was very reasonable. With the torrents of rain we have had lately, we have had no leaks, this speaks a lot to the quality of the work.
Basement & Crawl Space Waterproofing
Installation of drain tiles and a sump pump in crawl space. The crawl space has now been completely free of water for close to 2 years. The price was way cheaper than what the big companies around town are charging too.
