"Cory Guerra came and inspected my home. Unfortunately due to my financial situation I am unable to move forward currently. I recommend giving foundation recovery systems a call. Cory did excellent at explaining what is going on with my basement."

"Branson, Mo. is where work was done. Company has a great attitude and seems more interested in taking care of the customer instead of making a buck. Here is how this happened. I wanted my air ducts cleaned because I had a water leak and after the clean up (I did myself, which I will never do again. To much stress trying to figure it out. Should have just hired a pro.) I wanted to make sure if there was any mold that the ducts were clear/clean of mold spurs. The company that I was going to have clean the ducts wanted a Pro to inspect the area before he would send a crew out to clean the ducts. So, I wound up getting David from Green Planet Mold to come out and inspect the affected area. His office was great keeping me informed on when he was coming out and David himself stayed in contact as well. David showed up, looked the area over and said he did not find any signs of suspected fungal growth in the bathroom and laundry room. My elderly mother lives with me and my wife, so this was a relief. He gave me some tips on some other things I should do, how to do it and what products to use. In fact, he made another trip to the house to drop of some non-toxic professional cleaner to help finish up the job. When I asked him about doing a test so I could get a company to come out and clean the ducts he said the test was not necessary and I was spending unnecessary money. He also recommended a company to clean the ducts and said he would call them personally and have them get in touch with me. That all happened and the company that is cleaning the ducts, LCS Kleene Aire, will be here in 4 days to complete the job. Although the work is not finished yet, I am a lot closer then I was a week ago and have some peace of mind that the health of my family is being taken care of. Lesson learned from all this. Hire a pro from the beginning. Yeah, I may have saved some money, but at what possible cost. I would have avoided the stress and lost sleep, not to mention all the time I spent doing the job and worrying about doing right. Thank you Homeadvisor for connecting me with Green Planet Mold and also Green Planet Mold for the advice and referrals."

Foundation Drain Installation 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.

Since basements are prone to water and moisture issues and the resulting problems can be expensive to repair and potentially damaging to your home, basement waterproofing is almost always worthwhile. Even for homes that haven’t experienced water infiltration, waterproofing the basement is insurance against facing expensive repair bills in the future. All basements will leak at some point, so fixing drainage issues and taking steps to prevent moisture and water infiltration is wise.

You can DIY basement waterproofing in some ways to help save on the overall costs. If your basement isn’t experiencing a lot of water but is noticeably humid, you can try running a dehumidifier that will pull the excess water out of the air. If you notice water leaking due to outdoor drainage issues, you can add downspout extensions to keep rainwater away from your home. 

However, if the problem is more severe and requires a more extensive solution, it’s best to call a basement waterproofing professional to assess the treatment you need and install waterproofing safeguards properly. Since keeping water out of your basement is important, ensuring this job is done correctly the first time is best.

A small sump pump running infrequently uses an average of 10 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per month. The average cost for electricity is $0.171 per kWh. The size and use frequency affect how much electricity it uses. Sump pumps average one-third to one horsepower (hp) motors. One hp is equal to 745.7 watts. Watts multiplied by the time your pump is running divided by 1,000 equals your average kWh. Multiply kWh by your average cost of electricity. In areas with high rain or a marsh basin, the average cost can be as high as $15-$25 a month.

Methods include interior sealants, exterior excavation and waterproofing membranes, sump pump installation, and vapor barriers for encapsulation. Techniques vary based on the structure and severity of moisture issues.
