"I had 4 companies come out, 2 of them stating I needed a sump pump without even looking outside, or listening to other solutions I had from from other contractors. I HIGHLIGHLY recommend Mastercraft Waterproofing They told me that I absolutely did NOT need a sump pump and it was an issue with the sealing on the outside of the chimney. Water was coming through one of the seams. This was the only company who looked inside and outside on my property. Their work has a lifetime guarantee for what I had done, and saved me $1,000. Tom and Rob are the owners and came out for the quote, and were the ones who did the work. Personable, professional, reliable and cannot recommend them enough. They sent a follow up email for additional recommendations long term, with pictures of the project from start to finish. Please call them if you have water in your basement instead of these large companies who will tell you that you have a huge pool of water surrounding your house. Mastercraft Waterproofing does it all and will be able to help!"

"They advice, and had all our questions answered on sensible and affordable options. Very knowledgeable, prompt, polite, efficient, and thorough team! We are happy with their waterproofing services in our basement (fast sump pump and a grate trench with a discharge line that goes 15 feet to the outside bubbler) as well as crawl space shield installed under our addition. It works well, and Pioneer checked a month later and a year after for inspection and cleaning. A+ work and workers."

"I highly recommend Start2Finish Waterproofing. Ed was wonderful to work with. He was timely, informative, and honest. There?s no inspection fee like most other companies. Their quote was very reasonable and has a lifetime warranty. Bob and the install crew were very efficient and left my basement in the same condition as when they came. For basement water issues this is the company to use!!"

"Rick came out to look at the house foundation and told me how to repair it myself. He also recommended how to grade soil so water flows away from the foundation to prevent further damage. I appreciate the time and advice given to me and would absolutely recommend him."

"The crew that came out to do the work were on time and very friendly. Communication throughout the process was excellent (this includes the scheduling with the office and the crew with regards to when they would arrive, etc.). We are happy with the trench drain that they installed and would recommend them to others."

Basement Waterproofing FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, engineers assess soil load-bearing capacity and provide construction guidelines.

To maintain an outdoor structure, perform regular inspections for damage, leaks, and weak joints. Clean the structure regularly, treat or repaint wood surfaces for weather resistance, and reinforce any weak joints to prevent deterioration and ensure its longevity.

Yes, it is possible to over-dehumidify a house by removing too much moisture from the air. This can create an overly dry environment that negatively affects those with respiratory or skin issues, and may cause your skin, hair, and sinuses to feel dry. However, this is unlikely to happen with most modern dehumidifiers, as they are equipped with moisture sensors and adjustable settings. These features allow the unit to pause automatically when the desired humidity level is reached, preventing the air from becoming uncomfortably dry. In contrast, older or more basic dehumidifiers left running for too long could potentially over-dry the air. To avoid this, aim for a balance between removing excess moisture and maintaining a comfortable environment. You can often monitor your home's humidity levels using a modern thermostat for guidance.

Yes, barndominiums can have basements. Barndominiums are typically built over concrete slabs, so barndo basements are not very common. However, it is possible to include a basement in a barndominium blueprint as long as you’re building completely from scratch. Barndos can have the same types of basements as traditional homes, including full or walk-out basements.

You can seal a concrete slab by cleaning the surface, filling in any cracks, etching the surface, applying a sealer, and letting it dry. Concrete slabs don't typically need sealing, but you can use a topical concrete sealer if you notice signs of water damage. If you haven't already fixed the cause of the leak, then you'll want to repair the plumbing before you seal a concrete slab.
