"We had an unfinished basement that had rough in plumbing already done and was already insulated by the builder. We used Craftsman Basements to create a beautiful living space instead of a messy storage area. 
Craftsman transformed this space into a bar/eating/kitchen area with floor tile and dark cherry cabinetry  a sink, dishwasher, and fridge (we provided the dishwasher and fridge). We also have a nice bedroom with walk-in closet and beautiful window, a hallway, tiled shower/bathroom, living area with room for recreation (we have a full sized air hockey table) a clever reading nook with its own light under the stairs, wrought iron staircase and comfortable soft carpet. We also have 2 small unfinished areas for storage. 
about Overall the work was done in a timely manner, Matt the owner and Ben the work supervisor went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with the final project. Their workers were polite, timely and completed what was expected on the day expected. We are very happy that we went with this company and are enjoying our new space. They took extra care to line our driveway so the dumpster didn't scratch or damage it and the workers had a portable so never any reason to come upstairs. They came and went without bothering us but the workers were also accessible when necessary. The owner and supervisor made sure we knew what to expect from week to week. They completed all work in about 2 months give or take a few changes we requested that added a little extra time.

"Mostly very well. The outside of the house was done in a timely fashion once the crew got started. It turned out very nice. The kitchen had some hiccups due to paint color and sheen matching. All in all, Mike worked well with me in getting the job done, and it also turned out well."

Basement Waterproofing FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, cleaning a crawl space is worth the cost. Although it's an out-of-sight area, neglecting it can lead to significant problems like pest infestations (including termites and carpenter ants), mold, and fungal growth, which can cause structural damage. Regular cleaning helps prevent these issues. While hiring a contractor has ongoing costs, the price for cleaning—typically between $0.50 and $4 per square foot—is much lower than the cost to remediate a pest or mold problem. Additionally, a clean crawl space can lead to improved indoor air quality and more comfortable temperatures in your home.

Costs depend on the area's size and condition, damage extent, and chosen method. A professional evaluation provides a tailored estimate based on specific needs.

While a standard gutter system is widely considered the most effective way to prevent water damage to your home's foundation, several alternatives are available. These options can be used on their own in certain climates or as supplementary protection.

Common alternatives include:

  • Rain Chains: These are decorative chains that hang from the roof's edge, guiding rainwater to the ground.

  • Drip Edges: These metal strips are installed at the edge of the roof to direct water away from the fascia. While often used with gutters, they can be paired with a ground-level solution but are typically not sufficient on their own.

  • Rain Dispersal Systems: These systems work by breaking up the heavy sheet of water flowing off the roof, dispersing it over a wider area.

  • French Drains: This ground-level system uses a perforated pipe in a gravel-filled trench to collect and redirect water runoff away from the house.

  • Drip Paths: Placed directly below the roofline, these paths made of concrete, stone, or other materials prevent soil erosion and guide water away.

It's important to note that some alternatives like rain chains and dispersal systems may not be adequate in regions with heavy rainfall because they don't divert water away from the foundation as effectively as a full gutter system. Ground-based solutions like French drains can be very effective but are often more expensive and can affect your landscaping and curb appeal. Many experts recommend installing a full gutter system for maximum protection and using alternatives as supplementary measures.

One handy thing about whole-house dehumidifiers is, once installed, you don’t have to worry about placement or changing the dehumidifier’s position. But if you are using a portable dehumidifier, we suggest keeping it away from walls, vents, and furniture. It needs a central, unobstructed spot with access to lots of air to do its job.

In most cases, a crawl space will not dry out on its own unless the moisture comes from an uncommon flood and isn’t expected to be a recurring issue. For most homeowners, moisture problems in the crawl space will only continue to get worse over time, so addressing the underlying problem with gutter systems or a foundation drainage system and setting up a preventative solution like a dehumidifier is necessary.
