"I recently purchased a commercial building in need of some foundation repairs and was referred to Shore Up Foundation by a family friend. Chase, Adlai and their crew were professional, courteous and educated me throughout the correction and improvement process to resolve my issues. We ran into some unrelated foundation issues on my job, but I was impressed with the amount of experience and exceptional awareness they took to help quickly resolve the problem. I would highly recommend Shore Up; I appreciate the professionalism and time they took during this intensive repair."

I wanted to change out the sliding glass door on what used to be the front our garage to a large window.  Erik and his crew removed the existing door and started demo on the outside hardee board siding and the inside drywall.  They reframed the wall to support a large 9x5 window.  Once the window was installed they added osb and housewrap to the outside and finished re siding the exterior wall.  They also replaced the drywall on the interior wall.  To finish the job they jackhammered what was left of the concrete ramp coming into what used to be the garage to make it look more like it was just another room in the house.  I wanted to save money and do some of the work myself so I did all of the painting and added the window trim.  Everything was done as agreed upon in a timely manner.

"I had several years of drainage problems which led to fungus problems. RH Enterprises educated me on the underlying issues and designed a solution to correct it. He performed the grading and installed a French drain system. He then layed sod throughout my yard and provided several weeks of treatment until the new sod was established. He also educated me on how to control the fungus issue going forward.

I actually had neighbors comment on the quality of work with one leading to a referral for work.

This is the second time I have utilized their services. They also repaired several areas of my concrete driveway last fall.

I highly recommend RH Enterprises. They are very competitive and provide quality work."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

No, you don’t want your crawl space to be wet because water and even moisture in the air under your home can attract insects and rodents, decrease your indoor air quality, increase your energy bills, promote mold growth, and even lead to structural damage. If you notice any signs of water or humidity in your crawl space, you should get the issues addressed immediately by contacting a professional. They can remove moisture and will know how to waterproof your basement to prevent ongoing problems.

Whether to waterproof your basement from the interior or exterior depends on several factors, including your budget.

Exterior waterproofing is generally considered the superior method because it stops water at the source, preventing it from seeping into and damaging your basement walls. This approach offers the most protection, making it ideal if you use your basement for storage.

By contrast, interior waterproofing is often less expensive and requires less labor because the area is more accessible.

For maximum protection against water leakage and moisture, applying waterproofing measures to both the inside and outside is the best solution. However, if you must choose only one, stopping water from the outside is the most effective approach to preserve your foundation and prevent damage.

No, everything doesn’t get wet if the bathroom is well-designed and the fixtures are properly installed. It’s important that the floor of a wet room drains correctly, and proper waterproofing and slip-resistant flooring are used to avoid creating slipping hazards. Since the shower isn’t housed in an enclosed space, you’ll need to make sure the towel rack and toilet paper holder are placed in areas where they won’t get wet.

When considering finishing your basement, take into account a few pros and cons:

Pros

  • Can increase the value of your home

  • Separate space from the rest of the house 

  • Customize and personalize the basement to suit your needs and style

  • Increase the amount of living space in your home

Cons

  • May not regain enough value to cover the cost of finishing

  • Lack of natural light if it’s below ground level

  • Moisture or flooding can cause costly damage

  • Installing plumbing and electrical can be messy and costly

Some basement waterproofing methods can actually cause your water or moisture problems to get worse, which is why it’s so important to call in a professional who knows how to solve your underlying issue and use the appropriate waterproofing methods. An example of this would be applying latex waterproofing paint to the insides of your basement walls without fixing the water issue outside. Doing so can trap moisture in the basement walls, which can promote mold growth, peeling paint, and even damaged concrete. However, when done by a professional, the only downside to basement waterproofing is the up-front cost.
