Basement Waterproofing in Lincoln, NE, Aug 21, 2026
The basement and crawlspace at this Lincoln home showed signs of moisture infiltration and structural settlement typical of properties built on Lancaster County's clay-rich soils, which have a high shrink-swell rating. The BEFORE photos documented bare soil conditions around the foundation perimeter and visible moisture concerns in the below-grade spaces that required comprehensive waterproofing and stabilization work.
Epp Foundation Repair installed interior drainage, wall anchors, and crawlspace encapsulation to address both moisture control and foundation stability. The crew installed a drainage system with perforated piping and a sump pump to manage water intrusion, positioned wall anchors on the brick foundation to resist settlement, and applied vapor barrier encapsulation to the crawlspace to control moisture and protect structural elements. The project was documented across 8 site visits with 358 on-site photos and a crew of 5 members to ensure thorough workmanship and detailed record-keeping.
Completed and documented on site by Epp Foundation Repair’s field crew. Serving Nebraska homeowners since 1994.
