"Our sewer service between the city and the house failed due to poor materials when the house was built in '95. Once it was all exposed, it was easy to see what a poor system a less caring plumber had installed. Vince and company replaced it all quickly and easily with the proper materials. We use Vince exclusively for all of our plumbing needs."

"We’ve had such a great experience every time we’ve used this plumber. Most recently, I called to have new faucets installed and he was able to come out the same day, did a great job, and left everything clean. He’s also installed shower faucets for us and fixed a toilet in the past, and every time the work has been done right and stress-free. He’s reliable, professional, and very reasonably priced. We’ve been happy every single time and will definitely keep using him and recommending him."

"Our sump pump quit working and we had a minor flood in our basement. Mountain Edge Plumbing came the same day and replaced the pump and made sure it was up and running consistently before they left. They were courteous and professional. We really appreciated their expertise and that they could even come the same day. Highly recommend!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Water that pools under pavers can erode the soil foundation and weaken the paver structure. In some situations, it can also cause mold and mildew growth. If that happens, you may need to start budgeting for the cost to build and install a patio to replace the damaged one.

Basements with persistent moisture problems or flooding shouldn’t be finished until the moisture issues have been fixed. In addition, if your foundation is cracked, you have unmitigated radon levels, or you have asbestos or lead pipes, remediate the underlying problem before finishing your basement. Turning a basement into living space before fixing these issues can lead to serious health risks or structural damage. 

Ideal humidity conditions generally range from 30% to 50%, with 45% considered optimal humidity for most homes. If your humidity levels drop below that range, you can turn your dehumidifier off. Additionally, suppose the temperature where the dehumidifier is installed falls below 60 degrees Fahrenheit. In that case, it's best to turn it off and unplug it since cooler temperatures can cause the unit's coils to freeze.

Preventing future basement flooding often involves installing sump pumps, improving drainage, sealing foundation cracks, and maintaining gutters. Costs vary, but preventive measures can range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars, depending on the solutions chosen. Investing in prevention can save you money on future flooded basement cleanup costs and repairs.

A plastic vapor barrier should completely cover your basement to prevent water from penetrating through the walls. This typically goes before installing insulation to prevent moisture from building up and becoming trapped on the inside of your insulation, where it can collect and lead to mold damage. Installing insulation after the vapor barrier allows for any moisture to exit the walls for better ventilation.
