"Very amazing results! Far better than hoped for, even better results than we were told to expect! Water now drains AWAY from the foundation, and it was done in less than a day!"
"The owner (Michel Bervaldi) was very informative and forthcoming re the project. Unfortunately, financial priorities did not allow us to follow though without the project. We did speak with other contractors and Michel would have been our first choice if we were to proceed as originally planned."
"Titan Plumbing & Heating completely exceeds expectations on our ranch. He services our property with multiple outbuildings, houses, barns, and aging pipes through years of hard water from our wells. From the first call, Daryl has been professional, punctual, and clear about the scope and cost. He maps out entire systems, replaces aging pipes, and has installed new high-efficiency boilers and water heaters that keeps every building warm, even through the winter nights. Daryl works cleanly, respected our land and livestock, and never leaves a mess behind him. Everything was finished on schedule and ron budget. He checks in to make sure his repairs and installs are working well. You rarely find this level of skill and honesty anymore. If you own a large property and need work done right the first time, call Titan. Five stars, without hesitation."
"I only use James when I need some work done to my house. He responds fast, gets the work done quicker than just about anyone else I've ever used and seems very concerned with leaving his customers happy."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts
In nearly all cases, you are required to install a vapor barrier in your crawl space. However, local regulations will change based on the local climate and the crawl space's susceptibility to moisture. Even if a vapor barrier is not legally required, it is often a good idea to keep your crawl space dry.
A sump pump can remove excess moisture from under a house if standing water is present. Other ways to protect your crawl space from moisture include installing a vapor barrier, using a dehumidifier, installing insulation, and using a fan to dry the space. Finally, keeping your gutters clear of debris and positioning your downspouts away from the home’s foundation can prevent moisture from getting into the crawl space in the first place.
Preventative measures, such as maintaining drainage systems, installing sump pumps, inspecting roofs regularly, and crafting comprehensive emergency plans, can help mitigate future risks.
Having a trusted crawl space contractor is the key to great encapsulation. If you're not sure how to hire a crawl space pro, begin by asking your neighbors for referrals. Homes in your neighborhood will often have a similar foundation to your house, and personal recommendations are one of the best ways to find a contractor. Additionally, double-check that the contractor has experience with encapsulation as well as proof of their license and insurance.
If there is standing liquid on your concrete, remove it before attempting any of the above cleaning methods. For small amounts of water, use rags, a bucket, and a mop. For larger areas of liquid, lay down cat litter or baking soda to soak up the water first. If you have extremely large pools of water sitting on your concrete, break out the wet vac and get to work.
