Cheltenham, PA is known for its beautiful tree-lined neighborhoods, walkable communities, and distinctive architectural character. With many established homes throughout the area, it's common for homeowners to experience basement moisture issues and foundation concerns related to aging construction materials, shifting soil conditions, and years of exposure to changing weather patterns.

At Jamison Basement Waterproofing, we provide waterproofing and foundation repair solutions tailored to the specific needs of Cheltenham properties. Older basement walls, inadequate drainage around the home, and excess groundwater can all contribute to damp basements, water seepage, and elevated humidity levels beneath the property. Our team carefully evaluates each situation to determine the source of the issue and installs reliable systems designed for long-term protection.

Homes in Cheltenham are exposed to humid summers, freezing winter temperatures, and regular rainfall and snowfall throughout the year. These seasonal changes can place repeated stress on foundation walls and basement floors as the surrounding soil expands and contracts over time. Without proper waterproofing, moisture intrusion can eventually lead to foundation cracks, mold and mildew growth, musty odors, and structural deterioration.

Our experienced waterproofing specialists offer a complete range of services including interior drainage systems, sump pump installation, exterior waterproofing, crawl space encapsulation, foundation crack repair, moisture control systems, and structural stabilization solutions. Every project is customized to fit the condition and layout of the home to help ensure dependable, long-lasting results.

For more than 35 years, Jamison Basement Waterproofing has proudly helped homeowners throughout the region maintain dry, healthy, and structurally sound homes. As a family-owned and operated company, we are committed to delivering honest recommendations, quality craftsmanship, and reliable customer service backed by decades of waterproofing experience.

Jamison Basement Waterproofing's Services in Cheltenham, PA

Our services are designed to keep your home healthy and safe. Here's a list of some of our popular services in Cheltenham, PA.

Basement Waterproofing

Jamison Basement is the leading basement waterproofing service provider in Southeastern Pennsylvania. Our systems are designed to be flexible enough to handle all types and sizes of homes. With the kind of weather in Cheltenham and the age of the existing homes, you'll need a reliable basement waterproofing system to keep your basement dry. We use advanced basement waterproofing technology produced by GrateProducts, the leading basement health technology provider in the US.

Crawlspaces Repair Services

A big portion of the air you breathe comes from the basement and crawlspaces. You want to take as much care of your crawlspaces as much as you do for your basements. Jamison Basement provides complete solutions for keeping your crawlspaces dry including dehumidifier installation and crawlspace encapsulation.

Sump Pump Installation

Water will naturally flow to your basement, the lowest part of the house. To remove accumulated water, you will have to use sump pumps. We only install the most highly reputable sump pump brands. Aside from that, we make sure that you have reliable battery back-up so your sump pump will work even when there are power outages. This is particularly useful during storms when basement flooding is more likely.

Radon Gas Testing and Mitigation

Radon is a naturally occurring but dangerous gas that can enter your home through cracks in your foundation walls. It's an invisible and odorless gas, so you won't know if there's radon without the use of specialized tools. Jamison Basement provides radon testing and mitigation services in Cheltenham.

Our Project Manager Ed went out and told Kathy she could kill two birds with one stone by replacing her old, leaky basement windows with new glass block airtight security windows, while also ducting her dryer to the outside. So, it was a no-brainer for Kathy to move forward with the work. She loves the windows, and now she no longer has to deal with the high humidity after every use of her dryer. Problem solved.

Crawlspace encapsulation by Jamison Basement Waterproofing

Jalma mancinow

November 30, -0001 | Abington, PA

The challenges we faced were working in a tight space, as the crawl space was small in height. There was also so much humidity down there that the floor joists were dripping with moisture.

To address this, after crawl space specialist Steve met with her, the solutions he provided were a full encapsulation system with a dehumidifier. We also closed up the open vents and installed a Grate Sump pump in the low spot for drainage. Before we were even done, you could see a big difference throughout the whole home as the humidity levels started to drop rapidly. Now that the crawl space is dry and free of groundwater seepage, the homeowner has gained around 2,000 square feet of dry usable space.

Project Manager Steve Custus went out and talk things over with the new homeowners and to bring the high levels of moisture down he recommended a high volume high efficient dehumidifier. We also coated the walls in floor with a moisture blocking concrete paint . To give the Basement a nice clean finish look !

Grate Sump / Grate Drain / Full Vapor Barrier/ High volume dehumidifier

Sara N

August 08, 2015 | Oreland, PA

Once the system and gravel is placed, the area is sealed back up with cement. The idea behind this product is to catch any water and allow it to flow through the system before entering the basement. The water flows through the Grate Drain and then is led to a Grate sump pump. The sump pump then collects the water and pumps it away from the house through a discharge line. This innovated system allows the basement to stay dry. The homeowner also decided to install a high vole Dehumidifier. The homeowner had a musty odor every time she entered the basement. This system reduces moisture and eliminates mold and musty odor. The high efficient dehumidifier is #1 on the market of its kind . For All your basement waterproofing needs give us call at Jamison Basement Waterproofing !

The challenge we faced was tough parking on a small Philadelphia street.

To address this, we installed a small drainage system with a full vapor barrier and a sump pump.

We gutted the basement than installed our waterproofing system

Brandon & Renee W

August 06, 2016 | Wyndmoor, PA

The challenge we faced was that we had to gut the entire basement because the water problem had been going on for a while, and mold was certainly growing behind the finished material, so we had to get down to the root of the problem.

To address this, Project Manager Steve provided a full GrateDrain drainage system with a full vapor barrier, along with complete encapsulation of the dirt crawl space. We even extended a downspout underground free of charge to get as much water away from the foundation as possible. The Walkers said they chose us over our competitors because we were the only company that was not pushy during the sales call. Now that the groundwater issues have been taken care of, they can refinish the space and add a new playroom for their children.

I found the company online because I need options to fix a partly finished basement and large crawl space that’s letting in mice and bugs, and I scheduled a free evaluation to review repair options.
