BCR Contracting | General Contractors & Roofing in Lost Creek, WV 26385

Proper excavation and grading around your home's foundation are critical for managing water runoff. In Lost Creek's hilly terrain, poor drainage can lead to water pooling near your foundation, which can eventually seep into basements or crawl spaces and contribute to moisture issues that affect your roof's structure. Our trenching and excavation services ensure water is directed away from your home, reducing the risk of foundational moisture that can exacerbate roof leaks and underlayment damage over time.

Absolutely. As a full-service contractor, we provide a comprehensive solution. First, our roofing team will repair the leak and assess any underlayment damage to secure your home. We then evaluate if stormwater runoff contributed to the issue. If needed, our excavation crew can improve drainage around your property with strategic trenching to divert future water away, addressing both the symptom and the root cause to protect your investment long-term.

Trench digging for French drains or downspout extensions is a proactive measure. When your roof's gutter system discharges water, it needs a clear path away from your home's foundation. Without proper trenches, this water can saturate the soil, leading to foundation shifts or basement leaks that create a damp environment. This moisture can then rise and contribute to rot in your roof's wooden decking or trusses. Our trenching services create a designated path for water, protecting your home's entire structure from the ground up.
