Basement waterproofing and foundation repair company. Family operated since 1957 with over 500,000 dry basements. Free consultations. Lifetime warranties available. Award winning company.

"Good work in general; our basement no longer sees water for over 3 years now, which is the most important thing. But there were some real issues: The biggest issue is that USW did not adhere to local electrical codes, and did not arrange for a final inspection of the project. So we didn't find out that it wasn't to code until years later, and now it's a big hassle and minor cost to fix and get the permits. Ask your local gov yourself what you need to do for permits and inspections; don't rely on USW! USW said they would seal any foundation cracks found along the way; they didn't do this until I bugged the warranty dept about it (but they did do it eventually). USW sent someone out for the "annual checkup"... over 2 years after the install. It's a good thing they (eventually) did, because they discovered the backup battery wasn't charging. Now I know to check this stuff better myself. Prices also vary wildly and are kind of negotiable (I'd give more detail but I'm out of space)"

basement waterproofing

"We are so impressed with Everseal. They installed a sump pump and interior drainage tiles in our basement in March of 2021. The job took only four days. The employees worked extremely hard to install the pump, interior drain tiles and window well drains. The young men, who removed debris from the basement in buckets and returned with fresh cement, literally ran in and out of the house to complete the job. They were amazing. They then brought their own hose to wash down any residue on our sidewalk and driveway. They took great care to keep the dirt and dust to a minimum. As they broke up the concrete floor, they used a powerful exhaust fan that vented to the outside through one of our basement windows. For additional protection, they wrapped the furnace with plastic sheets and hung plastic sheets around the basement enclosing the work area. They then made a tunnel with plastic from the basement door to the upstairs front door. Yes, there was dust that reached the upstairs. But, without their careful concern for our home, it could have been much worse. After the project was finished, we washed our walls upstairs and they were fine. The dust that reached the upstairs was easily cleaned.   They were price competitive and always went the extra mile to answer our questions.  A month after the installation, they returned to install a gasket and aluminum strips around the flange in the area where we do occasional woodworking. They did not charge for this service. And, they kept a vacuum operating to capture the dust while they were drilling the small holes in the concrete. The results look great. They also removed their shoes before entering our home and then wore booties to keep the dirt in the basement. Again, it is their attention to detail that sets them apart from others.  Everseal is a top notch company and deserves an A++ rating!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Preventative measures, such as maintaining drainage systems, installing sump pumps, inspecting roofs regularly, and crafting comprehensive emergency plans, can help mitigate future risks.

Yes, water coming up from the floor should be treated as an emergency. If you're unable to either identify or stop the source of the water on your own, contact an emergency plumber right away. In addition to harming your flooring, standing or pooled water can lead to water-damaged concrete.

Depending on the severity, a slab leak can go undetected for months or even years, especially if you don’t carry out routine foundation inspections to find foundation leaks early. However, minor leaks are likely to turn into more severe leaks over time, so you might notice increases in water bills and issues with yard drainage, even if the problem is minor.

You should plan on waiting at least a year and ideally two to three years after construction before finishing your basement. This will give the foundation time to settle in response to the weight of your home and the expansion of the surrounding soil. You can then repair your foundation and seal any cracks as needed before finishing it to reduce your risk of future leaks or other issues.

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.
