"Anthony, Adam A, Thomas, Patrick and Shawn are an exception team. Extremely professional and very hard workers. Anthony kept us informed of the the teams progress and they stayed very late one night trying to get the basement completed in a timely manner before the next rain. The basement has now been professionally waterproofed complete with two sump pumps and a large dehumidifier and now I will not have to shutter each time I hear the word rain. AFS is definitely a company I will hire again and will recommend."

"Frontier Basement Systems (Joelton, TN) was really fantastic to work with! The job had to be rescheduled multiple times due to my concern about the excessive rain causing the ingress/egress area in my yard to be too soft for the weight of the work truck, but Logan in the Production Dept. was extremely accommodating. Eric F. arrived promptly and was extremely courteous. He was thorough, making sure he had all the voids filled, and cleaned up well when the job was completed. I couldn’t be happier with the service provided by Frontier Basement Systems!"

"Wonderful communication, knowledgeable and experienced team. Ethan, Grant, and Jose are superb! I needed some crawlspace repair completed prior to the sale of my home, and these guys made the experience feel not so overwhelming. Ethan took quality photos of each item that was addressed, took time to explain the necessary steps in the process, and communicated promptly at each turn. Grant and Jose worked tirelessly cleaning out heavy debris left from the previous owner, completed the multi-day job, and even left useable materials neatly stacked upon request, Notably, even though operating as a single female, I felt secure with this team, didnâ t feel railroaded, and feel confident that this team was a good choice."

"We were a little skeptical when deciding who to choose to do our crawlspace because sealrite gave us a estimate that was far cheaper than what the other two companies we called quoted us at, but Austin came to do our inspection, communicated everything to us very clearly and gave us a one year warranty so we decided to go ahead and move forward, and im glad we did because he handled all of our mold problems, laid a vapor barrier over what was bare dirt ,and even hauled off all the debris the plumbers had previously left or ignored that we didn't even realize was down there. For the first time since we've owned the house you can actually go under the house to check the plumbing or air ducts without coming out caked in mud, spiderwebs , and mold. I highly recommend using sealrite!!"

"We thought that we had foundation problems causing leaks showing on our sheetrock in the basement. When TFS arrived to access the problem they were unable to find the problem without tearing out the sheetrock.. we decided to address faulty downspouts first in case that was the cause of the problem. TFS did a very good job with this project."

Customers say: Quick response

"I did not know anyone affiliated with the company before they responded to my inquiries, nor did I know anyone who had used them. They provided a very competitive bid, and came to make a bid quickly, and agreed to do the work much more quickly than other bidders, which I needed to avoid another basement flooding, and to accomplish it before my impending surgery. They were very professional and responsive in drawing up a professional contract, the crew showed up on time and took good care of my property, and listened to my concerns and adapted to them. They finished the work before the concerning rains came, and had good ideas on how to enhance the design. Most importantly, it was done right as best as I can detect, and they sprung no surprises or fine print, and settled up on time and with the understood budget. I will use them again, and recommend them to other people."

Basement Waterproofing FAQs, answered by experts

Yes. Water can penetrate through a concrete foundation wall. This can happen whether or not you have cracks, as concrete is a porous material. You’ll want to take steps to waterproof your basement or crawl space.

“Basement waterproofing” sometimes refers to applying a waterproof sealant to basement walls, in which case you would use a waterproof paint, often made of latex. However, there are many methods you can use to waterproof a basement, including exterior drainage systems, interior drainage systems, dehumidifiers, and more. As such, the materials you use can vary depending on the methods you use.

No, your basement dehumidifier doesn’t need to be on 24/7. While it’s an excellent tool for tackling damp, musty air, especially in humid seasons, leaving it running nonstop can backfire. Over-drying the space can mess with your sinuses, warp wood, and even crack certain materials. Instead, only use your humidifier when moisture levels rise above 50%, and then give it a break when the humidity levels drop.

If a crawl space isn’t vented, there can be moisture buildup, which can lead to mold damage, easily destroying the foundation of your home. A closed-off crawl space can trap heat, which can be useful in the winter, but can also trap dangerous gases and prevent clean air from entering the home through the floorboards.

Basements are commonly converted into game rooms. The potential challenges you may run into include controlling moisture, working with low ceilings, limited natural light, and the need for additional electrical or HVAC work. Addressing these issues can add to the total cost, but it ensures a comfortable and functional space.
