Local know-how
Why basements leak in Columbiana & Carroll County
Many homes in East Liverpool and Wellsville are built into steep hillsides above the Ohio River. Rain and snowmelt run downhill toward the uphill foundation wall, saturating the soil behind it. Without proper drainage, that water ends up inside – often through the back wall of the basement.
Much of the housing in the county dates to the late 1800s and early 1900s, when the pottery industry was booming. Stone and early block foundations were never designed to be watertight, and the mortar in them breaks down over time.
Further inland around Salem, Leetonia, Lisbon and Carrollton, rural homes on clay soil often have basements that flood in spring or crawl spaces that stay damp all year. Little Beaver Creek, Leesville Lake and the many small streams in the area keep groundwater high in wet months.

FAQ
Basement Waterproofing in Columbiana & Carroll County
Nearby service areas:
Can old stone foundations be waterproofed?
Yes. Stone foundations are usually handled with interior drainage, a vapor barrier on the walls and a sump pump, sometimes combined with repointing. Sealing the outside of a stone wall is rarely practical.
Do you serve rural addresses outside town limits?
In most of Columbiana County, yes. Enter your ZIP code on this page or call to confirm a contractor is available at your address.
What about crawl spaces?
Crawl space encapsulation – a heavy liner, sealed vents and often a dehumidifier – is one of the most common projects in older eastern Ohio homes.
