It's important to ensure that the foundation of a house is constructed and maintained properly to guarantee its stability and safety. In earthquake-prone areas like California, poorly positioned homes have frequently collapsed, while those built on Sure Safe Foundations have remained undamaged.

"This team arrived for work in the morning, and was complete by lunch. Outside wall repairs on MidCentury Modern, and full assessment to bring house up to modern seismic codes. Great feedback to close out, plus a solid warranty. These folks specialize in crawl space homes and keeping them solid."

"Fantastic!!! I cannot speak highly enough of the guys and gals at Berkley Construction. After dealing with some, we'll say, less than competent construction companies, these guys were a god send. Organized, communicative and so easy to deal with right from the start, they made every step of the process so much easier and more smooth than it could have been otherwise. You should at the very least include them in your bid gathering, as I think they will blow you away with their competence, something that is sadly rare in this field."

A DUIN-IT Roofing & Construction, Inc. of Valley Center, California, provides expert contracting services and specializes in roof repairs and home renovations.

"We recently completed a second floor deck project on our home in Encinitas which included a full solid waterproof deck replacement, TimberTech, railing and other improvements. This project was made more challenging given the age of the home and state of some of the materials based on where we live closer to the ocean. Rob, Adam and team were incredible every step of the way, including communication and professionalism. They were able to work around challenges, come up with cost effective and creative solutions and generally keep us informed about the various parts of the projects as we moved along. They took extra measures to keep the working area clean during the entirety of the project. I would definitely hire this company for any future improvements to our home. Thanks guys!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

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.

A walkout basement is considered to be partially below grade because at least one wall is entirely exposed. In some cases and in specific municipalities, inspectors and appraisers will still count walkout basements as below grade, which means the space can’t serve as living space or be rented out. If you intend on using the area as living space or a separate apartment, you should check with your local building department to make sure it’s legal to do so.

While it’s possible to live in a damp basement, it’s usually not healthy to do so. Damp air affects your breathing, and it also promotes mold growth and pest infestation that can make living in a damp basement dangerous. You should plan to resolve any moisture issues and set up preventative measures before using your basement as a living space.

Most people consider a French drain to be one of the most effective solutions for foundation leaks, but it’s not always a standalone solution. French drains will help keep water away from your foundation to reduce the risk of leaking and structural damage from soil expansion, but depending on your foundation type and location, you might need other systems or techniques—like soil gradation and gutter and leader installation—to resolve the underlying problem.

Whether interior versus exterior basement waterproofing is better for your home depends on your budget. The majority of water issues that homeowners experience in their basements are due to conditions that start outside of the home. So, to prevent those problems from seeping in, it’s better to stop them at the source using outside waterproofing methods.
