"King Waterproofing team were very professional, They did an excellent job with waterproofing & fixing the problem I had with water entering my basement."
"I had tight time constraints and Sundry Waterproofing delivered! A previous plumber had dug 5-6 feet below the dirt line and made some holes in my foundation to fix a sewer drain issue. Unfortunately, the plumber never finished the job and left me with several holes in my foundation and a pile of dirt in my driveway. Upon my call, Sundry came out the next day and gave a reasonable quote to fix this, as well as replace some insufficient vapor barriers in my crawl spaces. I agreed and they were able to schedule the job quickly. On service day, the work crew, headed by William, arrived on time and got to work. The crew (especially William) was very professional and got the job done in about 3 hours. I thank William and his crew for a job well done, and Curt (the owner) for his flexibility. I highly recommended these folks. "
"Crawlspaces.com performed as advertised. After 3 years, the waterproofing system continues to keep water out of the crawlspace. Additionally, after installation customer service was prompt and courteous. I would highly recommended."
"I hired Rufino and his team to work on waterproofing my basement. Their quote was much more affordable than the other more commercial companies out there. They did an excellent job. We had good communication and they completed the job promptly. Rufino answered all my questions and concerns. His team left the basement and yard very clean. I highly recommend them for your waterproofing needs."
"Very professional and prompt. They completed my job within the three days as promised. I would recommend them for waterproofing and structural issues."
"Along with new driveway they waterproofed my garage wall, that was leaking and installed diverters for the water from my roof. Would recommend them for any concrete work and waterproofing you would need done. ONLY REASON FOR 4.5 STAR IS THEY LEFT A LARGE STAIN IN THE ROAD IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE DUE TO HYDROLIC LEAK IN ONE OF THERE MACHINES. {POWER WASHER WILL NOT REMOVE IT}"
"I was impressed from the time Jose visited my home, understood what needed to be done and prepared a complete estimate. This was a tricky and labor intense job. Few people wanted to take it on and I was very worried if we would ever find a way to get the work done the way it should be. The cost was fair and successfully completed, as scheduled. I am thankful I found them, called and worked with them. They exceeded our expectations! Thank you Jose and Georgia Waterproofing and Tree Service!"
"AK Waterproofing did an outstanding job on waterproofing my basement. I was having water come in each time it would rain really hard. Jose came out and was very professional and knowledgeable of what it would take to correct the issue I had. The price was reasonable and they had the best warranty out of all the other companies I received a quote from. It didn't take long to make a decision and once I did they were able to get to me the following week. The day of the appointment they arrived on time and went straight to work. Several hours later they were done and wanted me to check things to make sure I was satisfied. 2 days later it stormed really bad for hours and when I went in the basement there wasn't 1 drop of water at all. I couldn't be more happy with AK Waterproofing and I recommend them to anyone who has water issues with their home."
"Will & Frank were great. They dug up an area from the outside and installed a French drain that went all the way to my backyard fence. No leak with today?s rain! Works splendidly!"
"Plumb Life came out ASAP after a pipe burst & flooded my basement. Couldn’t be happier with the work he’s done. I’ll be using him for all my plumbing needs & can’t recommend him enough."
Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts
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.
Many prevention methods can be used individually or in combination to waterproof your basement. Some of the most common waterproofing methods include:
Using dehumidifiers
Silicate concrete sealers
Vapor barriers
Baseboard channels
Drain tile systems
Waterproofing paint
Drainage systems
Epoxy injection
Interior French drains
Exterior excavation and waterproofing
Cement waterproofing
Weep tiles
Liquid membrane
Sheet membrane
Yard grading
Gutters and downspouts
A walkout basement is considered to be partially below grade because at least one wall is entirely exposed. In some cases and in specific municipalities, inspectors and appraisers will still count walkout basements as below grade, which means the space can’t serve as living space or be rented out. If you intend on using the area as living space or a separate apartment, you should check with your local building department to make sure it’s legal to do so.
Yes, these services often increase home value by preventing moisture-related issues and enhancing the usable space in basements or crawlspaces.
Most houses will have vents in the crawl space. This allows for air passage and energy retention, which in many ways can help control the temperature inside the home. If you are able to consider the cost of a crawl space encapsulation, you may not need your crawl space vents at all.
