"Job was promised to be less than two days. The crew arrived at the time agreed on and was thorough, covered walls not affected by the work and were finished by the end of the morning. I will recommend AA Action to anyone in need to basement waterproofing, crawl space improvements and related items."

"This was a huge job. A complete basement waterproofing - new internal drains installed and two new sump pumps installed. The guys were great - came on time worked hard all day and cleaned up after themselves. The only negative was at the completion of work when it was time to pay the amount was less than what was originally quoted. I told the guy that and he insisted that it was what he had. I even showed him the quote on paper. I paid it - glad it was less, but a few days later got a call from the office telling me I needed to pay another $1600 (the difference between the original quoted price and at the time of service price) I told her what the guy told me and she got a little rude saying "well you knew what the quoted price was" - yeah I DID know and was prepared to pay but after install HER guy insisted it was the price he had. I wasn't trying to get out of paying but the confusion on how much it costs was with the people working there. I didn't appreciate her attitude as if I was trying to skimp out of paying. Nevertheless, I ended up with this additional payment. However, the work is supposed to be guaranteed for life. No complaints there."

"We are the 2nd owners of a 15 year old home. Don't know why the original owner/builder did not put a sump pump in the basement, as it would have been a cheaper option in the end. If you are building a new home with a basement, put a sump pump in, don't scrimp on what is a very valuable insurance policy. After looking at a handful of other companies to retrofit a sump pump in our cellar, we picked All Aspects Waterproofing, LLC. They did a great job! Very high quality work, and outstanding service. They did a great job! We enthusiastically recommend All Aspects Waterproofing to any homeowner!"

"We had a basement waterproofing issue. Shopped around a couple of companies. With the best rating on google, and with good reason, Best Buy Waterproofing was our choice. Rob was knowledgeable, diligent, patient and open towards our questions and concerns. Best experience I had with any company rep to date. He came out twice to our place (once the first time to look at the issue, second before he took the work to make sure we all are on the same page.) And then he was there before the work was started to make sure all of us were on the same page. The crew that came out (Darwin, Juan, Raul, Hammie, Chilo) were very careful about their work, respectful, and meticulous. They plastic sealed the work area to prevent dirt, and broom cleaned the area after they were done. Even after the work was done and the transaction was completed, Rob came out to check the work and to make sure it was up to his standard. He olso brought with him the mold treatment up on my request and took care of that as well. Thank you Rob! I highly recommended Best Buy."

"I highly recommend DES! I arranged a consultation after a home inspection report indicated that there was moisture in our basement walls. I was worried that costly mitigation efforts would be required. A friend who had previously used DES for a basement water problem highly recommend them, telling us that they were an honest company that only does what is necessary to solve a problem. Happily, Mark Fine from DES inspected both our basement and our exterior grounds and reported that there was no indication of cracks in the foundation or water intrusion, and that no work needed to be done. It is so refreshing to have a company that doesn't try to sell expensive services when they are not necessary!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Combining basement waterproofing with other upgrades in Washington can be a smart move. If you’re already opening up walls or floors, consider bundling projects like foundation repairs, electrical updates, or HVAC improvements. This approach reduces repeated disruptions and may streamline permit approvals. Coordinating with local contractors can also help you avoid scheduling conflicts and ensure all work meets Washington’s building codes.

Helpful?

In Washington, maintaining your basement waterproofing system means regularly cleaning gutters, checking downspouts for blockages, and ensuring proper grading around your foundation. Test sump pumps before the rainy season and inspect for new cracks or moisture. Keep dehumidifiers running in humid months, and trim back tree roots near drainage lines. Annual professional inspections help catch issues early and may be needed for warranty coverage.

Helpful?

Signs your Washington home may need basement waterproofing include musty odors, damp spots, peeling paint, or visible cracks in basement walls. Homes in low-lying areas, near the Potomac, or with older construction are at higher risk. If you notice high humidity, uneven floors, or seasonal water intrusion, it’s wise to schedule a professional evaluation to determine the best waterproofing approach.

Helpful?

In Washington, unexpected costs often come from discovering hidden foundation cracks, outdated wiring, or old plumbing during waterproofing. Older homes may also have lead paint or asbestos that require special handling. Additional expenses can arise if tree roots interfere with drainage systems or if weather delays work. Be prepared for possible extra inspections or permit requirements that can extend your project timeline.

Helpful?

In Washington, pay close attention to the city’s clay-heavy soil, which can increase hydrostatic pressure on your foundation. Homes near Rock Creek or in flood-prone zones may need extra drainage solutions. If you live in a historic neighborhood, review any restrictions on exterior changes. Limited street parking and narrow alleys can also affect access for contractors and equipment, so plan logistics in advance.
