What kind of homes and basements does Cheyenne have?
The Avenues and downtown have early 20th-century homes on basements; postwar and newer subdivisions have poured basements, many finished.
What causes basement and foundation problems in Cheyenne?
Snow drift meltwater
Wind piles snow against walls; it melts slowly into the soil next to the foundation.
Expansive soil movement
Swelling soils crack slabs and walls.
Window-well leaks
Melting snow fills window wells in finished basements.
Frozen sump discharge lines
Cheyenne's long, cold winters freeze sump discharge lines left on or near the surface. A freeze-relief outlet near the house and lines buried below frost depth prevent overflow.

What do Cheyenne homeowners ask most?
Does Cheyenne license contractors?
Wyoming has no statewide license, but Cheyenne licenses contractors and issues permits.
How do I stop snowmelt leaks?
Clear drifts away from walls, extend downspouts, slope soil away from the house and cover window wells.
Is radon common in Cheyenne?
Wyoming has areas with elevated radon. Testing basements used as living space is recommended, and waterproofing can be coordinated with mitigation. A sealed sump lid and sub-slab drainage pipe can later serve as the suction point for a radon fan, avoiding a second round of work.
