Block basements from the 1950s and 60s
A lot of Livonia was built in the postwar decades, and many houses from that era sit on concrete block basement walls. Block holds up well, but after sixty or seventy years of wet clay soil pushing on it, the weak points show: stair-step cracks along the mortar joints, a horizontal crack partway up the wall, or a wall that bows inward.
Water finds the same weak points. Hollow block cores can fill with water and let it out at the base of the wall, which is why a damp line along the floor is so common in these basements.
Repair and waterproof in one visit
Because the cracked or bowing wall and the water coming through it are the same problem, we quote the structural repair and the waterproofing together. You deal with one crew and one written scope, not two contractors taking turns at the same wall.
