"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."

"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!"

"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."

"I'm not a plumber so I can't absolutely say what I needed, but my property was dug up and my fence taken down to get the bobcat in. They left quite a bit of broken pipe and water bottles and their tape measure. The 2 men who were here 2 days were very loud shouting and playing and I hoped my neighbors weren't mad... sorryguys"

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.

"Do call this company! Tom quoted me a price that was all inclusive which is easier for me. He arrived on time. Had my old tub out and new tub in by 3:30 p.m. I was able to take a bath that evening. The next day the drywall was installed and finished taping the next few days. I received quotes from others but Tom explained all of what he would do. I researched that different materials and methods all of the companies I received quotes from. He did not take shortcuts and was very thorough."

Basement Waterproofing FAQs, answered by experts

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

Underfloor insulation alone will not cause moisture and mold, but improper installation can. Although the purpose is to seal any drafts, your subfloor still needs ventilation. If you seal the area too tightly and prevent all airflow, this can cause moisture to get trapped. This moisture eventually leads to mold and—if your floors are wood—rotting.

A sump pump can remove excess moisture from under a house if standing water is present. Other ways to protect your crawl space from moisture include installing a vapor barrier, using a dehumidifier, installing insulation, and using a fan to dry the space. Finally, keeping your gutters clear of debris and positioning your downspouts away from the home’s foundation can prevent moisture from getting into the crawl space in the first place.

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. 

Several factors can impact the cost of waterproofing your basement. Some of the most common cost factors include:

  • Location

  • Square footage

  • Cause of the water leak

  • Type of foundation

  • Accessibility

  • Waterproofing method

  • Materials

  • Contractor experience and availability

  • Engineering reports, if needed

  • Structural and other repairs

  • Permits
