"Crawl Space Jam did an incredible job of encapsulating and waterproofing our crawlspace! Throughout the project, Chris Venzon-owner, continued to provide progress reports, before and after photos, and to make us aware of any operation that might create noise (critical as one of us works from home). Chris even went beyond the scope and replaced the door to our crawlspace to ensure everything was sealed well. We would highly recommend Chris and Crawl Space Jam to help you with your crawlspace concerns!"

"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."

"In July, 2019, our basement flooded for at least the 10th time since my wife and I had lived there. It was awful. It resulted in assistance from ServPro as well as remediation for mold. However, before remediation was performed, ServPro handed me a business card for Sparks Waterproofing. Jody Sparks (owner) came less than a week later for a site inspection of our home, our basement, and the topography of our property. He explained the concept of waterproofing as "water diversion." He took several days to meticulously put a comprehensive waterproofing plan together for us. Upon submitting the plan, he stated, "Your home, including your basement, will NOT flood again if you follow this plan." We hired him. We trusted him. He even assisted my wife with her concerns about some herb gardens and elderberry trees which she hoped he would be able to assist her with hopefully saving during the process. And he and his crew did just that. Over the past several months we have had several hard rains in Lenoir and our basement has been without even a drop of water. But the past 24 hours, when Lenoir received almost four inches of rain, much of it in torrents over a few hours, our home and our basement have not had even a drop of water. My wife and I can never thank Parks Waterproofing, Jody, Amber, and their highly professional crew members enough. I cannot sing their praises adequately. I would recommend Jody without hesitation. He was fair, patient, he listened to our concerns, he took his time in developing a water diversion plan specifically for our home, and his price was beyond just reasonable. Basically, they saved our home."

One week after Pro Plumbing replaced my main sewer line, my 18-year-old hot water heater expired. Because Brandon had taken notes on it when he did a plumbing survey of my house 10 days earlier, I was able to simply call Pro Plumbing and have them bring out the new appliance--no diagnosis or consultation was necessary. Thad and Brandon discussed the project with me, then removed the old unit and hooked up the new one. While working in my basement, Brandon noticed that my sump pump line was cracked, so I also had them replace that line. All of the work was done very neatly (no debris left behind) and the hot water heat was placed back up on bricks (because of a rainwater problem in the basement) as I had requested.

Since they were already there, Thad and Brandon suggested knocking out a couple of other items on my plumbing survey list: replacing the washer line and running water through the water to my refrigerator (same line as the washer). They discussed and priced the various options for the refrigerator line, and I chose the least expensive one. As part of the washer line upgrade, they added a clean-out and vent for the gases in the line. As it turned out, the washer pipe was almost completely clogged (they showed it to me once it was removed), so I'm grateful that their diligence in pointing out the line's incorrect size (1.5 inch rather than 2 inch) helped me avoid a major problem in the future. Everything was left spotless and returned to its proper place following this work.

While Thad was working under the house--without complaint, even though it's a tight crawl space--he took photos and pointed out a major problem with the kitchen plumbing: For some bizarre reason, the kitchen sink wasn't hooked into the sewer line and the drain was dumping directly into the crawl space. I am extremely grateful that he took the initiative to identify this issue, because I was totally unaware of the problem. Brandon consulted with me and priced the sewer line for the kitchen; I initialed the new paperwork and they did the work right then and there.

What I thought would be a simple water heater replacement turned into more than 5 hours of work, which Brandon and Thad did very efficiently and professionally. They stayed much later than they had anticipated on a Friday afternoon, without complaint. I'm grateful that they took the initiative to point out the looming problems, allowing me to fix them now rather than later, when they would have been full-blown disasters. While the job was expensive, it would have cost a whole lot more if I had waited.

I still have a bathroom renovation planned, and I will use Pro Plumbing as the contractor for that job. Brandon and Thad have offered sound advice during all of my contacts with them, and I appreciate their caring attitude and excellent workmanship.

Basement Waterproofing FAQs, answered by experts

If not properly maintained, an underground downspout may damage your home's foundation. A clogged downspout can back up, causing water to pool around the base of your home and seep into the foundation. Regular inspections and maintenance keep your downspout in good working order, preventing damage and protecting your home.

While "dry" mode on your AC can help reduce humidity levels to some extent, it may not be as effective as a dedicated dehumidifier, especially in areas with extremely high humidity or larger spaces. Dehumidifiers are specifically designed to remove moisture from the air more efficiently, making them a better choice for tackling persistent humidity issues.

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

Installing a bathroom in a basement isn’t a project for most homeowners. Many parts—plumbing, electricity, and carpentry—go into this project, each requiring expert-level knowledge and tools. One miscalculation can lead to very expensive repairs. Plus, some homeowner’s insurance might not pay for damages caused by a homeowner DIYing this project. You can protect yourself by allowing the pros to complete this job for you. 

A walkout basement is considered to be partially below grade because at least one wall is entirely exposed. In some cases and in specific municipalities, inspectors and appraisers will still count walkout basements as below grade, which means the space can’t serve as living space or be rented out. If you intend on using the area as living space or a separate apartment, you should check with your local building department to make sure it’s legal to do so.
