"I had multiple tunnels made by an armadillo under my house concrete slab that went as far as 22 feet. I needed these to be pressure filled before having a new concrete patio poured. They were able to get the job scheduled quickly and completed on time. Blake and Coop (may be spelled wrong) did a professional job. I would highly recommend this company to anyone in need of foundation repair work."

"I had fascia damage where the sloped roof met the flat roof. They repaired both the damage and repaired the roofs. They showed up as promised on time. They are very careful about cleaning up cleaning both during and after the work."

"Had a great experience with this company! Estimate and scope of work was clear, the price was fair, and Bryce and Jose went above and beyond to reroute my dryer vent inside of an interior wall and away from the waterproofing area! Definitely would recommend"

"It is nice to have Jay for this project, the water held in my lawn is a big headache and Jay was able to help me with that. It is a little bit over the budget, but I think it is good. I had my drainer installed and replace the lawn for the place where the drainer is. I hope the lawn will be better than before. Jay is very nice, he answer the phone call and replies to the text message all the time."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Home improvement grants are available for various groups, including individuals with very low-income housing, elderly people, older adults, and veterans. These grants can cover a range of needs, from accessibility modifications to addressing critical issues that may affect a resident's health or safety.

Yes, slab leaks are fairly common, especially in older homes and places that are prone to earthquakes which can move home foundations.

It depends on what caused your basement flooding, the extent of the problem, and the risk of the flood continuing. If your flood is coming from a septic system or sewer line, breathing in the sewer gasses can be dangerous, so you should vacate. If the flood occurs from an ongoing natural disaster, relocating to a safe area might be wise. If you just have a plumbing leak or rainwater coming in, you can likely stay in the house if you don’t have electrical lines down there, but make sure you call in professionals to fix the issue immediately.

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.

The first step to preventing foundation cracks is to repair any current ones. When one crack forms, it becomes more likely that a second crack will follow. A few other tips include performing regular foundation checks, cleaning spouts and gutters, and installing exterior drains if needed. For those living in a hot and arid area, you should water your foundation every other day.
