Damage Restoration & Foundation Repair | Fletcher & Sons in Atglen, PA

In Atglen's cold climate, the first signs often include small surface cracks in concrete foundations or driveways that widen over time, along with interior wall discoloration or blistering paint near exterior walls. You might also notice condensation or dampness in basements following a thaw. These clues indicate that water is penetrating and expanding, which can lead to structural issues if not addressed.

First, we stop the source of the leak and dry the area thoroughly to prevent mold. For drywall water damage, we cut out affected sections, treat the studs for moisture, install new drywall, and tape/mud the seams to match your existing wall. We also ensure the underlying issue—often a burst pipe in a shared wall—is repaired to prevent recurrence, protecting your condo from further damage.

Yes, foundation repair is a key part of preventing sewage backups. If your foundation has cracks or settling, it can allow soil and groundwater to put pressure on sewer lines, increasing the risk of backups. Our team seals foundation cracks, reinforces walls, and can install a sump pump system to divert water away, reducing the likelihood of sewage entering your basement during heavy rain or thaws.
