"Home Advisor does not have the specific category for the work that was performed of replacement of graded retaining wall up my driveway and around a structure. The work utilized excavation, concrete, wood & construction. Cristian, the owner, was the epitomy of professionalism as with every crew member. Firstly, he did not try to sell me on something I did not want, much appreciated. The job was meticulously executed in record time at the price I could pay. This job has been on my bucket list for years... finally completed with a job well done!"

"The work was excellent. The project was completed in the exact time frame that I was told when I hired them. I had numerous estimates given and M&W charged me a third of what had been quoted by other contractors. AND THEY QUOTED ME FIRST. They were also kind enough to work in a few other small projects I hadnt previously planned. The owner William is very professional and his crew is as well. They did a wonderful job and I will definitely call them first before any other contractor when I'm ready for more work in the future!"

"I've had work done many years ago, where the work done by people that were not as professional as Jimmy would only last a few years - all the work he has done has been fabulous, reasonable in price. The work up here has to be done in a special way, and his has been fantastic with how long it has lasted. I am very happy, he has done some special things for us to get the prices as low as possible. If we had somebody else do it, it would probably cost twice as much."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Yes, the air from a damp basement can travel up into your living area through a process called the stack effect, so moisture, mold spores, and other debris in your basement air can all decrease your indoor air quality on your main floors. Additionally, damp basements can promote the rotting of building materials, which can damage flooring, insulation, and framing on your first floor in addition to materials in the basement.

The most challenging part of finishing a basement is addressing moisture control. Basement waterproofing is an essential task that requires a professional’s skills and knowledge. If you don’t properly waterproof your finished basement, it’ll be vulnerable to dampness, water damage, and mold growth. Ensuring proper insulation and ventilation to combat these issues while meeting building codes adds complexity to your remodeling project.

Egress windows or doors are required in finished basements to meet safety and building codes. If your basement is unfinished and used as a storage space, egress windows are not required, but anything considered a habitable space must have an additional point of egress in addition to the stairs.

Several factors can impact the cost of waterproofing your basement. Some of the most common cost factors include:

  • Location

  • Square footage

  • Cause of the water leak

  • Type of foundation

  • Accessibility

  • Waterproofing method

  • Materials

  • Contractor experience and availability

  • Engineering reports, if needed

  • Structural and other repairs

  • Permits

Regular inspections, maintaining proper grading around the foundation, and keeping gutters clear are advisable. Vapor barriers and sealants may need checking for wear after several years.
