Unique Mine-Site Soils

How Historic Mining Grounds in Plum Affect Basement Water

Plum, an eastern borough with residential communities built on historic coal-mining ground, faces distinct waterproofing challenges. The area’s hillside terrain and legacy mine voids direct groundwater and runoff toward foundations, increasing the risk of basement seepage. Homes in ZIP 15239 often experience moisture intrusion through porous masonry, foundation cracks, and cove joints. Changes in soil stability from old mines further amplify water problems, especially during heavy rain. For these reasons, professional basement waterproofing is essential to address Plum’s unique ground conditions and keep your home protected year-round.
Common Foundation Issues

Top Basement Water Problems for Plum Homeowners

Foundation Cracks and Settling

Coal-mining history leaves Plum with shifting soils, causing cracks and settling in many home foundations. These cracks allow water to seep in, especially at the cove joint. Everdry repairs these issues with patented systems to keep basements dry.

Porous Concrete and Masonry Walls

Older homes in Plum often have porous block or brick foundations that easily absorb water, especially during wet seasons. Everdry’s interior and exterior solutions seal walls and add sump systems for lasting protection.

Window Well and Tie Rod Leaks

Hillside runoff and fluctuating ground pressure push water into basements through leaking window wells and tie rods. Sealing these seepage points and improving drainage with Everdry prevents musty odors and property damage.

We bought a house, it's Pittsburgh, it's built into the side of a hill, and water is coming into our basement. EverDry waterproofing put in an interior French drain, waterproofed the walls, installed an EZ breeze air filter, and did exterior waterproofing as well. Four days of good work (Wed Aug 19, Thursday Aug 20, Friday Aug 21, and Monday Aug 24). Corey (the foreman) and his team did a great job and we're very pleased with the results. Looking forward to having a finished basement!

I just had some warranty repair work done and was very pleased with the work that Cory and Owen performed. They were here for 3 days and explained in detail what the issues were and how they were going to resolve them. I would recommend Everydry for your waterproofing needs.

I had waterproofing work done by Everdry of Pittsburgh years ago, and for the most part, everything has been perfect ever since. Recently, I thought I was having water problems again, so I called them to take a look. Thankfully, it turned out to be just a leaky pipe rather than a structural issue. Their customer service and willingness to come out and inspect the situation gave me total peace of mind. Highly recommend their team and their lifetime support!
