"Crew worked very fast, completed our project in 1.5 days. System has worked well throughout the last 9 months including very heavy rainfall days. Our basement is dry, and we can go out of town without having to check the weather forecast to see whether I must stay home instead and dry-vac the basement."

"Bryan provided the estimate and was prompt in responding to my phone call and setting up an appointment. He was on time and pleasant to work with. He was very interested in what was in our best interest long term as homeowners and what we were looking for out of our house, not what he was able to sell us (very low pressure sales). He explained the theory and science behind the potential solutions available to us and what the prices would be, and we settled on installing a back-up battery for our sump-pump and drain tile around the entire basement. Bryan explained what it would look like afterward (a portion of drywall had to be cut up everywhere there was drain tile installed), and I'm thankful for that - it managed my expectations of what to expect afterwards. A 50% downpayment was made. A couple days later the office called and scheduled the appointment. They set it for a couple weeks out on a Thursday/Friday (two day job). I got a call the week before saying they were ahead of schedule and could do it on Monday/Tuesday if I was available. I was not, so they kept it on the Thursday/Friday. I spoke with the lady in the office as well as Bryan as to what to expect day of and they were very helpful in explaining the process and when the team would arrive. Thursday morning I got a call about 8:45 from Shane, the foreman, saying they were preparing to leave the shop and would be at the house in 20-30 minutes. They arrived, and while foreman Shane and I walked around and reviewed the job, Andy and Dre started setting up the mats and plastic to protect my floors and other property that would be directly affected by any debris. We ran into an issue of how to divert around the water heater and furnace, and Shane called Bryan and was able to find a perfect solution quickly and didn't delay the project. Day 1 was excavation day, so I did not stay at the house. Shane called me at about 3:00pm letting me know they were done for the day and that they had cleaned up and would lock up the house (as we had agreed that morning). He reviewed the day's work and briefed me on what the next day would entail. There was a considerable amount of dust on my main floor, but I have a feeling it was about 1% of what could have actually been there had they not sealed off the basement when excavating. They did a great job of keeping the space tidy and moved all of my furniture back at the end of the day. While bringing concrete up to take outside, someone did slip and knick a piece of furniture. Shane was very up front about it and solved the issue right away with providing some wood stain (I was very impressed by the level of communication and the "above-and-beyond" mentality). Day two - putting down drain and pouring concrete. Shane called again when he was leaving the shop to notify me of when he'd arrive (crew was Shane, Andy, Dre, and George). He arrived on time, briefed us of what the plans were for the day, and got to work. I got home about noon and the crew got done about 3:30pm, so I was around the house while they finished work. They were very nice and friendly, I felt very comfortable having them around. They worked very hard to get the job done (especially hauling wet concrete down those stairs!) Shane did a great job communicating the progress when I got home at noon and throughout the day. When the job was finished and cleaned up, Shane walked me through the area, showing me the finished product and any maintenance or knowledge I would need to know as a homeowner (and making sure I felt comfortable with it). He then went over the lifetime warranty with me again, asked me if I had any questions, and I made final payment. I am extremely happy with the work that Bryan, Shane, and the team have done and would highly recommend them. They go above and beyond to make sure homeowners are safe and secure (and dry!) in their own homes."

Basement Waterproofing FAQs, answered by experts

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.

A leak under your foundation from a water supply line or sewage line is likely to lead to water pooling on certain areas of your property during rainfall, abnormally fast-growing or green grass in certain sections of your lawn, and differential settlement of your foundation, which can result in large foundation cracks, windows and doors failing to operate properly, a wavy or sloping roofline, or damages or irregularities in your interior walls, including cracks and bulging. If it’s a plumbing line embedded in your slab, you’ll also likely notice above-average water bills.

Some disadvantages of crawl spaces are mostly regarding the air itself—moisture build-up and poor ventilation, which can cause problems both in the house and underneath it, even damaging the foundation itself. Crawl spaces are difficult to access and often invite unwanted pests during the hot summer months and the cold winter ones. These hard-to-seal spaces are also susceptible to water damage during periods of heavy rain or melting snow.

No, everything doesn’t get wet if the bathroom is well-designed and the fixtures are properly installed. It’s important that the floor of a wet room drains correctly, and proper waterproofing and slip-resistant flooring are used to avoid creating slipping hazards. Since the shower isn’t housed in an enclosed space, you’ll need to make sure the towel rack and toilet paper holder are placed in areas where they won’t get wet.

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.
