"Called company on Monday and got an appointment for an inspection on Wednesday. That following Monday, the technician arrived and went through each step is sealing off the concrete foundation to the water leak. The fix worked well and was put to the test with the recent record rains. Not one drop of water came into the basement."

"I needed to have a slip proofing put on the pergo for my dogs in addition to the replacement of a bathroom fan and a repair to my garage ceiling drywall. Daniel read up on how to apply the slip proofing for the pergo before coming to the house and recommended a nice ceiling fan. The price was very affordable and all of the work was done well. I am posting this review now because I came looking for him to do some more work in my house."

Most of you who know me also know that my house has gotten water in the basement ever since I bought it in 1990 - 91. If there was more than a inch of rain, the basement would seep. We are in a low lying area. We have used the wet vac for cleaning up the mess and had just about everything on wheels and/or platforms. I just cant do it anymore so I decided to get quotes for a French drain system all around the house and a new sump pump at the other end of the house.  I went with Basement Authorities because I liked the system they were going to use and the price was reasonable and in-line with my other quotes.

These guys were such hard workers. They moved everything in the basement to the middle of the basement and covered it. They broke up the concrete in one back room and installed a sump pit with 1/2 Champion pump and StormPro 2100 with a battery backup. Then they jackhammered the perimeter of the basement like 3 foot wide by 2 foot deep and removed all of the busted cement (bucket by bucket). They laid new gravel down so they could  to install the Geo Channel. They re-cemented the floor back up. Installed 1/2 hp Champion sump pump in existing pit. Then outside they dug a channel from the house to about 25 foot away from the house and buried the discharge PVC to a bubble pot for the new sump pit. These guys were such hard workers and so very polite. They went into the basement and I didn't see them until they took a lunch break. Then back down to the basement. I can't say I didn't hear them because there was a jackhammer going at all times. It was a real dusty mess for the upstairs too: I changed the furnace filter daily.

When the guys would bring up buckets of the busted cement, they would return to the basement with a bag or two of new cement mix. They were so organized and knew what they were doing. They used 118+ bags of cement to seal up the basement. If I had any questions, they would answer me. I would have to pick up my mother from dialysis a few times, and left the workers alone in my house (that is how much I trusted them).

They took a little less than a week to finish the job. They took off the plastic covering and cleaned up the basement. Matt told me that I should wait a week before the stuff (machines etc.) should be put back. But, if I waited like 30 days, it would be a better cure for the cement. All I need the basement for is laundry and a project on occasion. So, I waited until mid January to call them for a few spots that were not level enough for me. They came a few days after my call, leveled out a few spots and finished up the work.

I have to say; I waited to write this because I wanted to make sure everything worked. The snow is melting and the pumps have started to run. The basement is dry. So far so good. I am so happy I could just cry. If you are considering basement work, you should look at these guys. They work hard, (no screwing around) the owner works right along side his men and they do a great job. When I decided to do this I was so apprehensive, it was a lot of money that I certainly couldn't waste and having strangers in the house. I picked a good company.

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

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.

In most climates, contractors recommend closing your crawl space vents in winter. Keeping them shut protects your crawl space from freezing temperatures, pests, and cool breezes that can lead to chilly floors in your home. However, it's often best to speak with a local crawl space team about your specific design and its relationship to the winter season.

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.

If there is standing liquid on your concrete, remove it before attempting any of the above cleaning methods. For small amounts of water, use rags, a bucket, and a mop. For larger areas of liquid, lay down cat litter or baking soda to soak up the water first. If you have extremely large pools of water sitting on your concrete, break out the wet vac and get to work.

In most cases, it is safe to live in a home with minor foundation problems, but you should not let the issues persist. Virtually all foundations have small cracks from normal settlement, which are not a structural concern but should be sealed to prevent water intrusion. However, major damage—such as large structural cracks, sinking foundations, or bulging walls—can make a home unsafe. Other issues that can pose safety and health risks include poor indoor air quality from mold or pests, uneven floors, and rotten beams or joists. It is always best to have a foundation repair expert or structural engineer inspect any issues to determine if your home is safe to live in.
