Basement Waterproofing in Lincoln, NE, Aug 28, 2026
The basement at this Lincoln home showed signs of moisture intrusion and lacked proper drainage infrastructure, common conditions in Lancaster County where clay soil with a high shrink-swell rating creates persistent water-management challenges. The homeowner needed both functional drainage capacity and emergency egress to bring the space into code compliance and protect the foundation from ongoing water-related stress.
Epp Foundation Repair installed an interior drainage system with perimeter PVC piping, positioned and secured a sump pump to manage collected water, and added an egress window to provide safe emergency exit and additional natural light to the basement. The completed work was documented across 6 site visits with 150 on-site photos and notes recorded by the 3-member crew to ensure all components were properly installed and functioning.
Completed and documented on site by Epp Foundation Repair’s field crew. Serving Nebraska homeowners since 1994.
