"Dave from Foundation Recovery came and did my annual basement inspection. I’ve had a sump pump - and gutters to direct the water to it - installed by them, for three years. And so far I’ve had no water in my basement. Even during the heavy spring rains in KC. Dave was very friendly and professional, and very knowledgeable about basements and their problems. He answered all my questions to my satisfaction. I appreciate the great service Dave! Thanks."

"They called as soon as I searched for a pro and coincidentally, they’re the same pro our friends referred to us as they also got their plumbing services when they bought a home. We didn’t have to wait for a week or so, they made it possible to have the job completed before we left (we were just visiting from Vegas to help our son moved to his new home). Everything went flawless, Trey went above and beyond. He noted other issues that need to be taken care of and he finished it in a timely manner, no hiccups thank God."

"The installation went well. Since it was done because of water leaking in my basement, there were some issues after a major rain storm. The owner came out per my request and agreed to come back to readdress one area that still needs repair after another big rainstorm in the future."

"Damion was our service technician and he came to clear the roots out of our drains. That was successful but in the process, he expressed concern over the gasket on the sewer plug and tested it to be sure it was firmly sealed. It appeared to be and he had us flush toilets and run faucets to be sure. The seal appeared solid but overnight it slowly showed a leak. We called Reddi Services and Damion was back early the next day to replace the part. He didn't charge us a service call for the second visit and even ran out to find the piece needed (he didn't have the part in his truck so he ran out to find it and charged us just for the part.). We're very satisfied with Reddi Service, have used them several times in the past, and will continue to use their technicians."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Generally, moisture barrier padding costs $0.75 to $1.50 per square foot, varying by brand and mix. That’s a lot more than standard padding, which runs $0.25 to $0.90 per square foot. The price difference between these two options might seem steep, but think of it as insurance against future carpet replacement costs and subfloor damage. If you have pets or kids, that extra investment in high-risk areas like your living room often pays off.

Water leakage through window openings is much more common in older homes, but it can also create issues with window frames that are improperly installed. If left unattended, water buildup can cause damage to surrounding fixtures, lead to harmful mold, and compromise the architectural integrity of your home. The potential damage that a water leak poses makes investing in weather- and water-proofing your window frames entirely worthwhile.

Whether to waterproof your basement from the interior or exterior depends on several factors, including your budget.

Exterior waterproofing is generally considered the superior method because it stops water at the source, preventing it from seeping into and damaging your basement walls. This approach offers the most protection, making it ideal if you use your basement for storage.

By contrast, interior waterproofing is often less expensive and requires less labor because the area is more accessible.

For maximum protection against water leakage and moisture, applying waterproofing measures to both the inside and outside is the best solution. However, if you must choose only one, stopping water from the outside is the most effective approach to preserve your foundation and prevent damage.

Flooded basement cleanup can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks, depending on the extent of water damage, the type of water involved, and the need for repairs or mold remediation. Severe cases with structural damage or extensive mold may require longer timelines. Quick action and professional help can speed up the process and reduce overall damage.

Yes, usually you will need some kind of vapor barrier on the exterior walls when the framing is attached to concrete and masonry surfaces.
