"What a great company to work with!! Chris worked within my budget, and made sure everything was exactly the way I wanted it. He even saved the packaging so I could keep a record of exactly what was used for the moisture barrier. He took an entire truckload of garbage out from under my crawlspace. All this within my budget!"

"Lane came out and listened to all our needs. He walked us through a very clear plan for our basement. They gave us a reasonable quote and were able to schedule us a few weeks later. It took them 2 days to do the work and it was done very professionally. The crew was extremely nice. They brought extra plastic to make sure all our belongings were covered. They even helped me move my washer and dryer! They made sure everything was clean and to our standards before they left. The whole experience has been great and I highly recommend them for whoever is having water issues in their basement or crawl space."

"I had about 20 feet of rotted band sill replaced, a girder installed under my kitchen, along with well vents and vapor barrier installed throughout the crawl space. EVERYONE I dealt with in this company was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, skilled, personable, and professional! The inspector, office personnel, and project managers were a pleasure to speak with. The crew was always prompt, extremely hardworking and polite! They kept me informed daily on what they were doing. I was very impressed with their work and work ethic. The project manager came several times to check on things and assist. They charged an extremely fair price for all the work that was done! Other big name companies I got estimates from were $3,000+ higher. I feel confident I will not have any more issues with my foundation or crawl space. Iâ d give this company 10 â­ ï¸ if I could and highly recommend them!"

"Doggone Dry did a wonderful job waterproofing my basement and installing a sump pump. Josh explained everything that needed to be done and exceeded those expectations when completing the job. They were very professional and got the job done in a timely manner. They also took the time to make sure my basement looked better and cleaner than it was before they came. I am very pleased with their services."

"Danny is a businessman who stands behind his word and hand-shake. These days that is not the norm. Danny and Clarks team did a fantastic job sealing the basement walls and stopping the water seeping through and a significant leak in one area. I would definitely recommend Danny and his team."

Basement Waterproofing FAQs, answered by experts

The most challenging part of finishing a basement is addressing moisture control. Basement waterproofing is an essential task that requires a professional’s skills and knowledge. If you don’t properly waterproof your finished basement, it’ll be vulnerable to dampness, water damage, and mold growth. Ensuring proper insulation and ventilation to combat these issues while meeting building codes adds complexity to your remodeling project.

“Basement waterproofing” sometimes refers to applying a waterproof sealant to basement walls, in which case you would use a waterproof paint, often made of latex. However, there are many methods you can use to waterproof a basement, including exterior drainage systems, interior drainage systems, dehumidifiers, and more. As such, the materials you use can vary depending on the methods you use.

If you decide to fill the space around your home’s foundation with landscaping materials, it’s important to consider the aesthetic as well as technical factors like drainage and protection from pests and the elements. Materials such as gravel, rubber mulch, concrete, and brick masonry are all good options.

Permits may be required for major repairs, structural work, or electrical and plumbing restoration after a flood. Check with your local building department to determine permit requirements and associated fees for your flooded basement cleanup project. Obtaining the correct permits helps ensure work is done safely and up to code.

If there is standing liquid on your concrete, remove it before attempting any of the above cleaning methods. For small amounts of water, use rags, a bucket, and a mop. For larger areas of liquid, lay down cat litter or baking soda to soak up the water first. If you have extremely large pools of water sitting on your concrete, break out the wet vac and get to work.
