"The owner of the company came an hour and a half to my he to give me a FREE INSPECTION! He wasn’t a high pressure salesman, and he spent an hour and a half explaining to me EVERYTHING that could be wrong. Although at this time a system is not needed, he didn’t try to scare me into a purchase. This is a company that has integrity! If I EVER need a waterproofing system, this is the company I would hire hands down!"

"Eric at Perma-Dry did an amazing job repairing over 20 tie rod holes in our basement . He was very informative in both his assessment and explanation of the repairs. He was very thorough, and did the job fairly quickly without sacrificing quality. We were also quoted over e-mail from Mike (the owner of Perma-Dry) based on a few photos we sent, and Eric matched that quote. I would highly recommend for any waterproofing or foundation repairs."

"The estimate to waterproof our leak in the basement was very close to actual cost. Work performed has been the best solution any other company has done previously in other sections of our basement."

"I am totally delighted with my basement waterproofing job. HomeSpec did an unbelievable job in diagnosing my problem, which was huge! I have never worked with a more competent contractor in my life! The workmen, led by John Davis and his terrific crew...Kevin, Dave, Tyler and so many others were the absolute best! Polite, efficient, extremely hard working (like I ve never witnessed in my life!) and just generally the BEST! I pray they make a lot of money!!!!! The cleanup was outstanding! Frankly, if anyone is looking for a basement waterproofer, I wouldn t call anyone else!!! They are THE BEST! Thank you HomeSpec! Kathy"

"Charlie and his team did a great job. We had a basement leak every rain storm which was caused by the original builder dumping excess cement next to our foundation. I would use them again especially if one of those franchise basement companies is pushing 30-40k whole basement solutions that could be unnecessary. We are at 11 mo since the job and still dry!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

The best basement waterproofing method depends on the specific issue causing the water intrusion. For minor problems, simple solutions like installing a properly functioning gutter system to direct runoff away and grading the soil to slope away from your foundation can be effective.

If you have more significant water problems, the solution will need to be more robust:

  • For standing water on the basement floor, a floor drain or a sump pump system may be the best solution.

  • For water pooling around the foundation, installing an exterior French drain can intercept water before it reaches the basement walls.

Other effective waterproofing methods, which can be used depending on your home's specific needs, climate, and soil type, include sealing the interior walls, landscape alteration, installing interior drainage systems, and using a dehumidification system to control moisture levels.

It is better to have a crawl space that is tailored to the outside temperature, your needs, and the season. For example, it is much better to have a vented space when it’s very hot outside and your AC bills are sky-high. Conversely, when the temperature drops and humidity rises, it is almost always better to have your vents shut and covered if possible.

The process might take a few days to a week, depending on the method chosen, area size, and weather conditions. Some solutions, like simple interior sealants, may require less time.

“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.

Thankfully, you do have a few sump pump backup options in case it fails. One option is a battery-powered backup sump pump. Another option is using a portable backup generator as a power supply for your sump pump. Unlike a battery-powered backup which has limited power, a generator can run around the clock for as long as you need it. 

Or you can opt for a water-powered backup pump, which uses your home’s water supply as a source of power. However, this may not be the best option if you find your house frequently has low water pressure.
