Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair
in Sharon, PA
For homeowners in Sharon, PA, basement waterproofing is more than just maintenance — it’s protection against the Shenango Valley’s unpredictable weather and soil. Heavy rainfall, seasonal flooding from the Shenango River, and aging infrastructure make water intrusion a common problem across the area. Aqua Solutions provides customized foundation repair, sump pump installation, and crawl space waterproofing for Sharon and surrounding communities, protecting homes from moisture, damage, and mold.

- Common foundation types: Stone and block in older homes; poured concrete in newer developments

Why Sharon Basements Leak
Much of Sharon sits in the Shenango River basin, where the ground remains saturated for much of the year. During storms, runoff can’t drain quickly enough through compacted clay soil, causing hydrostatic pressure to build up around foundation walls. That pressure forces moisture through cracks, joints, and pores in the concrete. Older homes — especially those with block or stone foundations — are particularly vulnerable to wall bowing, cracks, and leaks. Aqua Solutions designs waterproofing systems that keep water out and stabilize your foundation for decades of protection.
