"From start to finish Luke did a fantastic job with our project. We needed our driveway apron raised so it would be level with our garage and needed several voids filled in to prevent further water damage. I called on a Friday and Luke drove out to us on the following Tuesday to give us a quote. He took the time to explain his approach to the project, estimated cost, and even provided us with a free tube of caulk (even though we hadn’t committed to his services yet). He was friendly and professional and did a great job for a very reasonable price. We would definitely use Slab Boss services again and recommend them to anyone who needs a polyfoam lift or void filling."

"Sam and a colleague did all the work.  They were on time, very professional and did fantastic work.  I really appreciated how they brought me into the loop before they moved forward with each part of the project.  All in all, I was very happy with their work and I am considering them as a front runner to finish my basement later this year."

"Initially I was skeptical as the contractor was headquartered almost 100 miles but I figured if he was willing to come this far or give me a bid it was worth consideration. Turned out very well. Chris gave me a no nonsense bottom line bid in about 10 minutes time vs an hour or longer of salesmanship from other bidders. Ultimately Chris’s bid was by far the least expensive for similar materials and product. He is a one man show and his son helps him out on weekends. I would highly recommend him."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

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

Brick is designed to absorb moisture, but it is also designed to let it evaporate as well. So in general, the goal shouldn’t necessarily be keeping moisture out but making sure it has the room to breathe. If you have excess moisture getting through your brick wall, it’s more likely that you have a crack or other issue at play that a typical sealant won’t fix. So, instead of investing in sealant, try repairing your brick wall instead.

You don’t always need to install a dehumidifier in your encapsulated crawl space, but it might be a good idea in certain instances. If you notice obvious signs of condensation, mold, or musty smells permeating from your crawl space, a dehumidifier can help. It’s ideal for homes in humid areas.

In a worst case scenario, structural damage like rust on metal beams, rotting wood, and swelling on doors and windows can signal moisture problems that would benefit from a dehumidifier.

Yes, you can add a bathroom to an unfinished basement, but you’ll want to take proper precautions if doing so. As with any bathroom addition, you’ll need to make sure that it’s approved by local building authorities first. With unfinished basements, you especially need to keep an eye on proper ventilation practices.

There are several small, inexpensive upgrades you can make to upgrade your basement. Although you still need to adhere to building codes and obtain permits when necessary, you can complete small but mighty tasks like painting the masonry walls and installing entertainment devices to make the space more usable.
