"Groundwork’s did a great job on our house. Luis G was an amazing Forman with Ken H and Mark P all waterproofed under our house. They worked quickly, efficiently and thoroughly left all areas in tact and clean. Luis communicated very clearly about the all aspects of the job until it was completed."

"We had a great experience with this job. We had previously used TPT for a plumbing repair and were impressed with the quality of the work, fair price, and the great customer service we received. (See separate report.) We had previously considered re-piping our 80-year old house, which still had the original galvanized plumbing and which had no water pressure because of the corrosion in the pipes. A previous owner also had re-plumbed the original shower/tub in the 1970's using plastic-stemmed fixture (another reason not to miss the '70's!), so we were ready to get this job done. Mike Denico, the owner, gave us a competitive bid and based on our previous great experience with TPT, we went with him. Mike did the work himself, with assistance from his Dad, Brian (who did our previous repair), and Javier. In spite of the fact that the job took twice as long as expected due to the complications of working in an old house and the especially quirky way the original plumbing was configured, Mike and crew kept smiling and working just as hard. We got a quality job done cleanly and with as little intrusion into existing walls as possible. Mike also made sure that we had water every night and kept things picked up so that we were never inconvenienced during the job. Brian did a great job with patching the walls and went above and beyond what was promised in the bid. What impressed us most was when my wife and I offered to pay Mike something extra because of the additional time he was spending on the job. Not only did Mike refuse, saying that he would stick with his bid, but almost seemed insulted that we would offer. The integrity and pride of craftsmanship shown by Mike is all too rare these days and impressed us very much. As long as we live in town and Mike is working, he will be our plumber. The results of the re-pipe have been great. We now have fantastic water pressure in the entire house, we have a shower that works properly (no more pliers to turn on and off) and will not wear out, and we were able to take two separate water systems and tank water heaters and get everything on one system. We love our new hybrid hot water heater, which gives us endless hot water on demand, even when several uses occur at the same time. While much of what we paid for cannot be seen because it is under the house, we can take our friends and family down to the basement and show them our cool new stainless steel, wall-mounted, 98% efficient water heater. While we may have been Mike's greatest challenge, we couldn't be happier with the outcome of the work and the unbelievable customer service we received from Mike and his crew. We already have recommended TPT to others and would happily do so to anyone!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts
A vapor barrier keeps moisture out of the crawl space, while insulation reduces the amount of unconditioned air—and sometimes moisture—that enters the space. Coupling a vapor barrier with insulation can help prevent humidity and related moisture damage in a crawl space while also making your home more energy-efficient. Just be sure to use insulation that won’t get damaged from moisture, like rigid foam board or expanding spray foam insulation.
Rigid foam board insulation is one of the safest insulation materials for basement walls. The panels offer a moisture barrier to prevent mold and mildew build-up. At the same time, this material is also fire-resistant, so you don’t have to worry as much about a fire breaking out as you would with spray foam insulation.
Brick is designed to absorb moisture, but it is also designed to let it evaporate as well. So in general, the goal shouldn’t necessarily be keeping moisture out but making sure it has the room to breathe. If you have excess moisture getting through your brick wall, it’s more likely that you have a crack or other issue at play that a typical sealant won’t fix. So, instead of investing in sealant, try repairing your brick wall instead.
Generally, moisture barrier padding costs $0.75 to $1.50 per square foot, varying by brand and mix. That’s a lot more than standard padding, which runs $0.25 to $0.90 per square foot. The price difference between these two options might seem steep, but think of it as insurance against future carpet replacement costs and subfloor damage. If you have pets or kids, that extra investment in high-risk areas like your living room often pays off.
It’s not the number of weep holes that should be of concern to builders but rather their spacing. Weep holes are usually spaced anywhere between 16 inches on center when using round tubes or wicking materials and 24 inches on center when using open-head joints. This is a more conservative spacing than the 33-inch maximum spacing on center that’s mentioned in the International Residential Code. All in all, the total number of weep holes a brick exterior should have will depend on the size of the structure.
