"Mr. Bradshaw came out and inspected the problem I thought I might have but I was not sure. Mr. Bradshaw could have sold me a job easily, but he was honest and told me the problem was not a problem at all. He spent time with me looking at the basement and I could not be happier with his company.... honest and punctual and just a very good company. I recommend them highly."

"I originally had Duraplex give me an estimate on my basement repairs. He referred to me another company called Moisture Control to do the job. Moisture Control ended up walking out on the job and Duraplex came back to finish the job for me. The guy from Duraplex ended up finishing most of the remodeling job without charging me. I would give him a better rating if he wouldn't have been constantly telling me that he was doing me the favor of finishing the job to cover his business."

"I probably have more construction experience than most customers.  In a military career, I worked a spectrum of jobs from carpentry and surveying, to construction management and inspection.  I managed an engineering lab for testing of concrete and asphalt.  In civilian life, I directed a hospital maintenance staff, and taught a high school shop class.  In other words, I?ve been around construction-- and contractors for a long time.  So here?s some contract advice.  

Understand contractors do business two ways; ?Cost Plus,? or ?Fixed Contract.?  You can do a Google research and get a full understanding of both.  Here?s my advice in Reader?s Digest terms:

A Fixed contractor provides a ?quote?, or ?bid,? and performs all the work promised for the agreed cost. (Get a signed agreement).  A ?quote? is an attractive selling point.  However, when an ?unforeseen condition? arises, the contractor must then either ?eat? the problem-- or expect you to adjust/renegotiate.   Government contract work is like this.

 In these fixed contracts, profit is made by the contractor limiting his material cost, and working as fast as possible.  Keep in mind there is the potential that quality will suffer due to ?corners being cut. ? 

Cost-plus is almost opposite.  You pay for materials, labor hours, and some percent of profit.  A cost-plus contractor?s estimate is not a really a bid--so realize that the amount may sound attractively low.  Unforeseen conditions are going to raise cost; count on it.  Also, if your contractor turns out to be slow and/or inexperienced-- you will pay too much for the labor hours involved?and potentially, get skimpy quality anyway.  

 Freewalt Builders were not slow.  Nor did they cut corners.  They brought experience.  They worked like a band of beavers, and took pride in building?what I consider to be a ?brick outhouse? of a deck extension, deck staircase and a 500 S.F. rough-in basement.  

Yes, the job cost more than that the estimate.   But I?m not complaining.  I could have halted work at any point and had a potentially lesser crew come in.  I didn?t, because I recognized that the best possible quality work was already being done.  

 Not only was his own work attended to expertly?Freewalt Builders fixed wrongs things about the existing house--at little cost.  After all was said and done, our cost was exactly where my experience told me it should be. 

Finally, I?m very happy with not only the cost-to-value result of the job, but also very happy with the genuine concern and effort by Art Freewalt and his workers--helping me both to visualize, and make real the little renovation dream me and my wife had.  Got a job? Talk to Art Freewalt first.

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Venting the crawl space can be a good alternative to encapsulation if you live in a dry climate and the moisture problem isn’t severe. You could also try a dehumidifier or install a vapor barrier on the floor, leaving the walls exposed. A new drainage system may eliminate the moisture problem if it is not caused by humidity.

Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable.

The best basement waterproofing method depends on the specific issue causing the water intrusion. For minor problems, simple solutions like installing a properly functioning gutter system to direct runoff away and grading the soil to slope away from your foundation can be effective.

If you have more significant water problems, the solution will need to be more robust:

  • For standing water on the basement floor, a floor drain or a sump pump system may be the best solution.

  • For water pooling around the foundation, installing an exterior French drain can intercept water before it reaches the basement walls.

Other effective waterproofing methods, which can be used depending on your home's specific needs, climate, and soil type, include sealing the interior walls, landscape alteration, installing interior drainage systems, and using a dehumidification system to control moisture levels.

A sewage smell in your crawl space is usually from a damaged or clogged pipe leaking sewer gasses or actual sewage underneath your home, but there are some other common causes. Moisture, from poor or damaged encapsulation or a malfunctioning sump pump, can harbor mold and bacteria, causing a musty smell. Pests can also get stuck in your crawl space and die, which causes a sewage-like odor.

Water can seep into porous materials like wood beams, floor joists, and roof rafters within minutes, but they’ll need to see prolonged exposure before you have structural damage. Mold can start growing within 24 hours, and mold can eat away at the structural components over time. Wood rot is more of a concern, though. Wet and dry rot are fungal infections that set in in moist conditions and rapidly deteriorate wood, causing major structural damage within just a few months in some cases.
