"Excellent job, the total cost charged actually saved me lots compared to the other quotes I was given by other companies. I shopped around a lot for good prices. My basement walls had cracks that went straight onto the floors and water was seeping through. Everything was fixed in one day. They came back after a week to do a follow up to make sure everything was good and dry, which it was. Overall very happy and would recommend them."

"I recently called Mayor plumbing to have a pipe repaired under my sink. I spoke with Mimi, who sent Pedro out. He arrived on time and did a great repair job. I was very impressed that he checked in with me the next day to confirm that everything was working properly. I would highly recommend them."

"I would like to express my most sincere gratitude to this company for the excellent work they performed in replacing the bathroom in my home. From the very first moment, they proved themselves to be highly responsible, punctual, and professional. The quality of their work exceeded my expectations; they paid attention to every detail, and the final result turned out beautifully. Their dedication and commitment to what they do are truly evident. Without a doubt, I recommend them 100%. It is difficult to find people who are this reliable and committed nowadays. Thank you so much for doing such an impeccable job. If you like, my dear, I can personalize this with the name of the company or the person who did the work for you, to make it even more special."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

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.

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.

It’s not the number of weep holes that should be of concern to builders but rather their spacing. Weep holes are usually spaced anywhere between 16 inches on center when using round tubes or wicking materials and 24 inches on center when using open-head joints. This is a more conservative spacing than the 33-inch maximum spacing on center that’s mentioned in the International Residential Code. All in all, the total number of weep holes a brick exterior should have will depend on the size of the structure.
