"John the owner was very professional. He explained all aspects of the waterproofing work that was to be done. Any questions we had, he answered so that we understood what was to be done. He was respectful and pleasant during the entire process. When we left messages needing to speak to John, he was prompt in returning our calls or texts. John's crew was also professional and resp0ectful. They were thorough in performing the waterproofing job as John had explained it. The work was completed within the timeframe. The crew did a great job on the waterproofing as well as cleaning up the areas. We are very pleased with the completed. There has been an extremely heavy rain for an extended period of time since the work was completed. I can honestly say the water problem is no longer an issue--basement is totally dry. We believe we made the best choice in choosing John's company, Brother's Waterproofing, LLC, to do the work,"

"This was a huge job. A complete basement waterproofing - new internal drains installed and two new sump pumps installed. The guys were great - came on time worked hard all day and cleaned up after themselves. The only negative was at the completion of work when it was time to pay the amount was less than what was originally quoted. I told the guy that and he insisted that it was what he had. I even showed him the quote on paper. I paid it - glad it was less, but a few days later got a call from the office telling me I needed to pay another $1600 (the difference between the original quoted price and at the time of service price) I told her what the guy told me and she got a little rude saying "well you knew what the quoted price was" - yeah I DID know and was prepared to pay but after install HER guy insisted it was the price he had. I wasn't trying to get out of paying but the confusion on how much it costs was with the people working there. I didn't appreciate her attitude as if I was trying to skimp out of paying. Nevertheless, I ended up with this additional payment. However, the work is supposed to be guaranteed for life. No complaints there."

"We are the 2nd owners of a 15 year old home. Don't know why the original owner/builder did not put a sump pump in the basement, as it would have been a cheaper option in the end. If you are building a new home with a basement, put a sump pump in, don't scrimp on what is a very valuable insurance policy. After looking at a handful of other companies to retrofit a sump pump in our cellar, we picked All Aspects Waterproofing, LLC. They did a great job! Very high quality work, and outstanding service. They did a great job! We enthusiastically recommend All Aspects Waterproofing to any homeowner!"

"I am a new homeowner and I purchased the property with the warranty of the previous owner. I needed new batteries for the sump pump and window well cleaning, I recieved immediate service and the warranty was honored. The technicians were very knowledgeable and courteous. I am very impressed with the work that they did in my basement. I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing water proofing. The did a great job."

This company and crew is very impressive.  Here's a little background info.  Our property required a lot of help due to rainwater and a broken clay pipe (50 years old).  The house sits on the side of a hill.  When it rains, the water comes straight to the length of the whole house.  The previous owner had installed a "point" drain system which was useless.  They also installed a sprinkler system surrounding the whole property which works nicely for the planting beds. 


When David and Grant came out to the house for an initial consultation, I was very concerned about the disruption of current drains, the sprinkler system, and the shrubs.  First, while walking around the property, they were able to talk me through their process and reassure me that it could be done.  I never felt rushed, and they were patient with all my questions.


Second, Grant gave me an itemized price list for my property, so I could see where the money would be going.  I wasn't sure if I could afford it all at the same time.  The scope of work was major, but he was able to break it down into stages.  Through more emailing with Grant, another visit to the property, and other Angie List contractors coming out, I choose Drainage and Erosion to do the whole scope of work.  Their winter pricing and customers service sealed the deal.


Here's a list of the work done:  Excavating along the length of the house and creating two 30' French drains which flow into 6" pipes extending all the way to the curb (under sidewalk) on both sides of house (95'), Extending and connecting 3 downspouts on right hand side of house into a 6" pipe, Adding 3 drain cleanouts, Capping the 50 year old clay pipe that broke, Installing new sub pump piping and connecting into drainage pipes, Waterproofing wall/slab of foundation on Sunroom and two basement walls, Sealing cracks in walls, Installing 3 new window wells, Restoring grade for drainage, Removing all debris including shrubs not wanted, Transplanting two trees, The promise that our sprinkler system will be working in spring when it's turned on or they'll come out and fix it.


The actual job took only two days as contracted.  Grant came out the morning work began to answer questions and make introductions.  The crew of 11 men were hard working (9am-7pm) and also answered my questions.  All of this work was done by hand digging which allowed them to carefully move my sprinkler system and maneuver around the other piping.  When they were done, they seamed the grass back beautifully.  You couldn't tell what had been done unless you looked very closely.  Also the drainage holes in the cemented curb look as though they have been there forever.  We have 4 holes on the right and 3 on the left.


I highly recommend this company.

"Wendell and his son did a great job in repairing my basement wall which has been leaking water whenever a storm came in. Wendell provided a lot of information while setting up the appointment and diagnosing the issue. He offered multiple ways of dealing with it, but provided his own professional input on the best way rather than sell me on the most expensive option. He gave upfront honest pricing as well. Quality of work was great and they were fast and efficient in getting the job done. I would recommend Tru Integrity to anyone going through a similar issue of water getting into their basements."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

The first step to preventing foundation cracks is to repair any current ones. When one crack forms, it becomes more likely that a second crack will follow. A few other tips include performing regular foundation checks, cleaning spouts and gutters, and installing exterior drains if needed. For those living in a hot and arid area, you should water your foundation every other day.

You should take care of any sign of water in your basement, whether it’s dampness after heavy rain or puddles of water on the floor. Besides potentially causing a health hazard, the moisture can damage your home’s structure and foundation. Furthermore, mold can grow quickly and spread throughout the rest of your home. With mold remediation costs ranging between $1,200 and $3,400, it’s best to avoid mold issues by fixing the leak.

A crawl space encapsulation isn’t always necessary, but it’s a wise choice, especially if you live in an area that sees a lot of precipitation. Sealing a crawl space not only reduces damage caused by moisture, mold, and pests, but it also increases your home’s value. It can also save you money by reducing energy bills and avoiding costly repairs for structural or foundation damage.

A plastic vapor barrier should completely cover your basement to prevent water from penetrating through the walls. This typically goes before installing insulation to prevent moisture from building up and becoming trapped on the inside of your insulation, where it can collect and lead to mold damage. Installing insulation after the vapor barrier allows for any moisture to exit the walls for better ventilation.

Yes, the air from a damp basement can travel up into your living area through a process called the stack effect, so moisture, mold spores, and other debris in your basement air can all decrease your indoor air quality on your main floors. Additionally, damp basements can promote the rotting of building materials, which can damage flooring, insulation, and framing on your first floor in addition to materials in the basement.
