"Ray and his team were incredibly professional, kind and courteous throughout all of the home projects. Their work on my basement foundation, installation of French drains and the rebuilding of an exterior wall were all phenomenal and at a very fair price. I highly recommend their services 10/10"

The first step involved trenching the inside perimeter of the basement slab, which was relatively new and required substantial work with jack hammers (very dusty and noisy). The trench was about 18" wide and 18" deep to accommodate the perforated pipe and the surrounding material consisting of hard plastic "peanuts" to facilitate drainage.  Workmen also installed corrugated plastic on the vertical wall surfaces so that should any water enter higher up on the wall it would be directed into the trench. The trench was then covered with a clear plastic vapor barrier, after which cement was floated over everything and leveled with the rest of the slab.  NOTE: the trenching is very destructive and the workmen will remove any finished elements - baseboard, sheetrock, framing, carpet etc. - to access the walls and foundation. Be prepared to budget repair work on any already-finished areas once the work is done.

The team was invariably punctual, thoughtful and kept the work area clean. Charlie stopped by regularly to ensure the project was moving along as planned and helpful throughout. When finished, the crew cleaned up well and left the site in good shape, although it took some time finally to get rid of the dust.  My only disappointment was that the backup batteries were left in their cases on the floor, when it seemed that they should have been up on a shelf away from harm.

The good news is that our basement has not seen any moisture since the system was installed.  We've experienced some bad storms combining rain over frozen ground and snow and water clearly was getting through the foundation.  We saw the pumps moving significant amounts of water out of the house and the system has been completely reliable.  Finally we were able to finish the basement as we'd hoped because we're confident the drainage system is protecting the investment.

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Yes, water coming up from the floor should be treated as an emergency. If you're unable to either identify or stop the source of the water on your own, contact an emergency plumber right away. In addition to harming your flooring, standing or pooled water can lead to water-damaged concrete.

Living in a finished basement is acceptable, but only if the space has the proper points of egress and includes smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) detectors to ensure the safety of the occupants. A good way to ensure your finished basement is suitable for use as living space is to get the basement finishing project properly permitted.

Standard homeowners insurance policies may cover basement water damage or flooding, but only if it is caused by a sudden and accidental event that is a covered peril, such as a burst pipe or a failing appliance. Damage caused by natural flooding from extreme weather, groundwater seepage, or heavy rain is typically excluded and requires a separate flood insurance policy. Some insurers also offer an optional water backup endorsement for issues like sewer backups. Review your policy or speak with your agent to understand your specific coverage.

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.

Yes, a crawl space can add value to your home. However, there is a higher chance of it adding value if it is an enclosed crawl space, as this reduces issues caused by excess moisture in the home. That being said, a basement does add more value than a crawl space.
