From the river flats to the hillsides above Montage

Moosic spreads from the low ground along the Lackawanna River up into the hills toward Montage Mountain, and that range of terrain shows up in the foundation work. Homes down on the flats near PNC Field and the river deal with a high water table and slow-draining ground, so wet basements and drainage are the common story there. Up on the slopes, it's more about water running toward the house and soil pressure on the uphill wall.

The housing is a mix — older borough homes alongside newer construction in the developments that have gone up over the years. That means we're just as likely to be sealing a century-old stone wall as we are to be correcting drainage around a newer poured foundation. Either way, the pattern usually traces back to where the water is going, and that's the first thing we check.

We serve all of Moosic, from the riverside neighborhoods to the hillside developments. The inspection is free.

03Questions

Moosic foundation questions

Why do homes near the river in Moosic get wet basements?

The low ground along the Lackawanna keeps groundwater high, and after a heavy rain or a fast thaw that water pushes up into basements on the flats. An interior drain and sump system is usually the dependable fix, sometimes paired with better exterior drainage.

I'm on the hillside toward Montage — different problems?

Somewhat. On the slopes, the bigger issues tend to be water running downhill toward the foundation and soil pressure on the uphill wall, which can show up as seepage or a bowing wall. Grading and drainage corrections do a lot of the work up there.
