Lancaster County's historic farmhouses are beautiful — and their limestone and fieldstone foundations are porous, wicking groundwater into basements and bank barns for two centuries. Lancaster city's rowhouses and the borough downtowns of Ephrata, Lititz, and Manheim add pre-war plumbing and aging roofs to the mix.

The Conestoga River and Susquehanna flood low-lying areas, and the county's agricultural humidity keeps ambient moisture high in barns, outbuildings, and older homes without modern vapor barriers.

Why Lancaster County Homes Call Us

  • Limestone and fieldstone foundations in historic farmhouses seep groundwater through mortar joints, especially in wet seasons.
  • The Conestoga River and Susquehanna River flood homes and businesses in low-lying areas during major storms.
  • Pre-1978 farmhouses and city rowhouses often contain lead paint and asbestos that must be tested before remediation.
  • High ambient humidity in agricultural areas accelerates mold growth in barns, basements, and poorly ventilated older homes.
