Services
Basement Waterproofing
Our basement waterproofing solutions protect homes from water intrusion, mold, and structural damage. Using advanced techniques like interior drainage systems and sump pumps, we ensure long-term dryness and safety. Clients benefit from customized plans and competitive pricing without sacrificing quality.
Foundation Repair
Foundation repair addresses cracks, settling, and bowing walls through methods like carbon fiber straps and piering. Our team stabilizes structures to prevent further damage. Homeowners gain peace of mind knowing their property's integrity is restored by experienced professionals.
French Drains
French drain installations redirect groundwater away from basements, preventing flooding and moisture buildup. We design systems tailored to property layouts, ensuring efficient water management. This service extends foundation lifespan and reduces humidity-related issues like mildew.
Sump Pump Systems
Sump pump systems provide critical protection against basement flooding by automatically removing accumulated water. We install durable, energy-efficient units with backup options for uninterrupted performance. Clients receive reliable defense against water damage during heavy rains or emergencies.
Carbon Fiber Straps
Carbon fiber straps reinforce cracked or bowing foundation walls without invasive excavation. This lightweight, durable solution restores structural integrity quickly. Homeowners benefit from minimal disruption and long-term stability, backed by our 21+ years of specialized expertise.

During the recent storms I had water coming in from everywhere. We called and even though they had other customers to see, they came out the next day and assessed the problem. Then 2 days later came back and fixed the problem even though they were extremely busy. They did a great job and being that it rained yesterday on 6/21/21 and I have a dry basement! Great work and I recommend them to all my family and friends!! Thanks again to the receptionist who made it possible for the guys to come out and the workers who did a great job!!!

Ark saved my mothers basement, and saved her thousands. After having two other companies tell her she needed a major repair, Jim Perry from Ark came out and after inspecting her property, he told her she did not need a whole-basement repair, and quoted her thousands less. The repairs were done quickly and efficiently, and the crew treated my mother very well during the whole process. Great price, great service and they totally addressed my mothers water problems! Thanks Ark!!

They did a slight lift, put in French drains, and a pump. I feel safe now. They explained everything, let us know when and how long they would be here, and it was to the hour almost! The owner stopped by introduced himself and made sure we were happy, his brother and other management stopped by also. My husband and I would recommend this company to anyone who has water and structural issues. You will feel much safer if you go with ARK!

ARK team just worked on my parents basement in Erie, PA. I am so relieved that I chose them to do the job. They were great bunch of people to work with. Professional, personal, just gave you that warm fuzzy feeling for sure. But more importantly, they did a super, super job on the house. The basement was previously a horrendous mess with cracked walls, water coming in at the base of the foundation, which had been going on for some time, and of course, lots of mold! :-( They put in whole internal drainage system, two new submersible pumps, fixed cracks in the wall, killed the mold, and anything else to make it a safe and dry basement like it should've been.
Their prices were very competitive, but quality was supreme. I would definitely recommend them again and again. Fix your basement now and enjoy the results for a lifetime. These guys are the ones to call. You won't regret it!!

All the guys who came to dig up my basement and input the Sump Pump did a great job and were very nice and professional. I know for a fact that I could not find a better company than Ark!

Very impressed with Mike Perry, who met with me twice and inspected and measured the basement thoroughly before I contracted for a large basement waterproofing job. He sent a professional team who were on time every day. One small unavoidable issue was taken care of promptly. Their price was reasonable and I would recommend Mike and his team for basement waterproofing.

No more wet basement woohoo i never seen a crew that worked so hard, I dont think they stopped for lunch. I will let ya know there will be dust just cover up your stuff, they also will cover it up kinda like double protection,what i really liked they are a family owned buisness, one of the owners would stop everyday to ck on the process, and the workers are not sub contractors and worked like a well oiled machine, We got them pizza on the last day kinda felt bad for them its is a hard dirty job, thanks guys for your hard work, Mike give the guys a raise
