"Professional! Andrew recognized the root cause of the water entering the basement while other foundation experts were charging thousands more and never addressed the root cause. Andrew executed a simple yet elegant solution. The cost again was highly reasonable. Highly recommended."

"I was referred to Cravis Custom homes by a friend. We had an extreme amount of water coming into our basement and poor drainage on outside of home, due to prior faulty concrete work and guttering. I did get several estimates before calling Brian, when I met with him, he seemed to understand the problem immediately. I had a quote in hand the next day. His quote was much lower than the other 3 companies I spoke with. Our foundation problem was compounded by the fact that we lived in a multiplex unit, where each unit was owned by separate occupants. Brian and his crew had to fix our problem without disturbing the foundation and causing other problems for our neighbors. Brian and his crew always showed up on time, and did not leave until the job was done. My husband and I are disabled, it was important for us to find a contractor whom we could trust without question. I would recommend Cravis Custom Homes to anyone I know that had such problems. We felt the price was fair and work turned out far better than I imagined."

Hello, I’m a local guy born and raised right here in Columbia. I’m available to do all kind of residential ground work from reshaping your property for proper drainage to clearing trees and overgrowth for better views. I focus on selective growth management in which I remove all scrubby trees and undergrowth to maximize the life of the wanted trees. I also clear large amounts of land. I install drainage systems for gutter and footings to get the water away from your house.

"My husband and I began notcing cracks in our basement walls within the last few months so we contacted Frank to diagnose the problem. He was very knowledgeable and promptly told us what needed to be fixed. His crew began work within a week of us meeting, they worked quickly and efficiently and the job was done in 4 days. They knocked out 30 feet of our basement wall that had been damaged and the work was done in an extremely clean manner. They left the area meticulously clean. We also had 38 feet of wall on the other side of our house piered because it was settling. Frank lifted the house and piered the wall with a jacking system. We were extremely surprised as to how quickly all of the work was done and appreciated the professional manner in which it was completed. Frank even provided us a lifetime tansferable warranty. We highly recommend using Frank for any foundation repair work.

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

While a standard gutter system is widely considered the most effective way to prevent water damage to your home's foundation, several alternatives are available. These options can be used on their own in certain climates or as supplementary protection.

Common alternatives include:

  • Rain Chains: These are decorative chains that hang from the roof's edge, guiding rainwater to the ground.

  • Drip Edges: These metal strips are installed at the edge of the roof to direct water away from the fascia. While often used with gutters, they can be paired with a ground-level solution but are typically not sufficient on their own.

  • Rain Dispersal Systems: These systems work by breaking up the heavy sheet of water flowing off the roof, dispersing it over a wider area.

  • French Drains: This ground-level system uses a perforated pipe in a gravel-filled trench to collect and redirect water runoff away from the house.

  • Drip Paths: Placed directly below the roofline, these paths made of concrete, stone, or other materials prevent soil erosion and guide water away.

It's important to note that some alternatives like rain chains and dispersal systems may not be adequate in regions with heavy rainfall because they don't divert water away from the foundation as effectively as a full gutter system. Ground-based solutions like French drains can be very effective but are often more expensive and can affect your landscaping and curb appeal. Many experts recommend installing a full gutter system for maximum protection and using alternatives as supplementary measures.

Yes, slab leaks are fairly common, especially in older homes and places that are prone to earthquakes which can move home foundations.

In most climates, contractors recommend closing your crawl space vents in winter. Keeping them shut protects your crawl space from freezing temperatures, pests, and cool breezes that can lead to chilly floors in your home. However, it's often best to speak with a local crawl space team about your specific design and its relationship to the winter season.

A moisture or vapor barrier helps separate the warm air inside your home from the cold air outside of it. Without it, your walls could collect condensation, mold, or other damage. Check your local building codes to see if including an interior vapor barrier is necessary for your building project or renovation, especially for rooms that are likely to be humid, like bathrooms.

Yes, many repair services include reapplying waterproofing and UV-resistant coatings.
