"I had 4 different water proffing companys come to my house. Brad from Roberts was the second company. My husband was at work. Brad talked to me like I had a brain. He showed me on paper what would be done. He looked at my walls and told me I did not have any damage like walls pushing in. He gave me an estamate of how much it would cost. I called him back and ask if he could come back and explain some things to my husband. He came back. After talking to my husband we had decited to have Roberts do the work. My husband called Brad and he gave us a start date. The day for the work to start 3 truck came to my house. They were right on time. They came to my door and ask if they could back in my driveway. I told them yes it is big we  use to have a tractor trailer. Chad took me into the basement and walked me throw what was going to be done. The first thing the workers did was put things on my floor and covered the opening in my kitchen so no dust would come into my house. They got right to work. I heard the the jack hammers. They worked all day and took 20 minutes for lunch. When they left the first night they came and told me. My husband and I went into the basement and the floor around the walls had been jack hammered rock placed in the hole, pipe placed on the rock then more rock on top of the pipe. My husband wanted to do some plumbing so he had them jack hammer the floor in our shower room. Oh Yes the other 3 companys told us WE would have to tear our shower room out so they could Jack Hammer the floor. Brad told us just take the toliet and sink out and leave the walls and shower!!!!! That saved us at least $1000.00!!! They tunneled  under the walls and under our shower!!! They jack hammered the floor for my husband and he did his plumbimg. Today they came back right on time.The crew came in and said hi and went to work. They covered my floors and opening into my kitchen again. I thought it was going to take 3 days or more. They concreted around the floor over the rock and pipe. They concreted the bathroom floor where my husband did some plumbing and installed the sump pump. I really did not want a sump pump but did want a dry basement. They cleaned up and cleaned my floor. Mark came and got me. It was only 1:30. I thought he needed something. He said he wanted me to look. We went down stairs. Oh My Gosh!! It was done!! It looks like someone used a machine to smooth out the concrete. My floor was so clean. There was not rocks or concrete left on my floor. Mark poured a bucket of water in the sump pump to show me how it worked. I did not hear a motor running. This is going to be great!!! He showed me where he took the pipe out side where my husband wanted it. I told Mark my husband would take care of that but he said no that was his job and that is what he does. My husband is going to love that. He went over the warranty with me and I signed the papers. All of the workers were so nice. I never heard a bad word spoke and when they spoke to me they were all so nice.
 Roberts was not the cheapest waterproofing company but they saved me so much work and money by tunneling under my shower and walls that to me they were the cheapest!!! There work was unbelieveable. They were on time and what nice people work for Roberts. I will use them again if I ever have a need and will tell all of my family and friends to use them.

"Andrew did a fantastic job. He was very knowledgeable and explained the pros and cons of the different waterproofing methods he recommended I apply to my basement foundation to make sure it stayed sealed long term. He was very professional, a good communicator, cleaned up after himself, and made sure to provide updates throughout the work. He even repaired a cracked portion of my sewer while installing a sump pump. Would highly recommend! Not a lot of waterproofing companies out there like Affordable that are a one man show, which is the best part. One man job = one way communication and responsibility. It hurts me not to give him a full 5 stars, but the only minor con I can bring up was how the work was some charges tacked on at the close of the project, due to some extra cost he told me he incurred for the pipe/connections needed to repair/replace the cracked pipe. The labor materials for repairing the damaged pipe were listed on the original firm bid I received before the project started. As I said this was a VERY MINOR con and I feel you will not find a better contractor out there to replace Andrew for your waterproofing needs!"

"The technician that did the service, let me know specifically one thing that turned not to be possible. I would never known, because the issue was below the ground. He also gave me post sales advice to recommend to my A/C who would be installing a unit near the repair."

"They are great to work with. Communication was superior. They stand by their work. A few years ago I had waterproofing done in my basement and this time they spray foamed the cavities of the basement too. Both times they did awesome work and cleaned up too! I highly recommend this company!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

A crawl space is an area under the house that provides access to plumbing, electrical, heating ducts, and other HVAC units. Its purpose is to create a buffer between the ground and the living area, helping with ventilation, moisture control, and access for maintenance or repairs. Crawl spaces are most often seen in houses in North America which are built on concrete foundations versus other parts of the world where buildings are constructed differently.

Yes, usually you will need some kind of vapor barrier on the exterior walls when the framing is attached to concrete and masonry surfaces.

The cost of basement waterproofing is $4,950 for the average homeowner. However, you could end up paying between $600 and $14,000, depending on factors like basement size, waterproofing method, and the region you live in. 

If you live in an area with heavy rainfall, you might be paying more for waterproofing than if you lived somewhere drier since waterproofing contractors would be in high demand. Likewise, a 500-foot basement costs between $2,500 and $5,000 to waterproof, but that price rises significantly for a larger basement.

Periodic inspections and addressing drainage issues prevent further damage.

Regular inspections, proper drainage management, and ensuring soil stability help prevent future settlement issues.
