"They gave a complete estimate on what needs to Be done including installation of a sump pump, waterproofing and repairs to the foundation. It will completely fix the problem. They showed up when they said they would and provided a written description of all work to be done. They even planted grass over where they had to dig. Pay for quality work, not tv advertising."

"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!"

"4 years ago when our basement was taking on considerable amounts of water constantly my (then pregnant) wife and I called Patrick and his team. They were on the job immediately and tackled the job professionally and quickly. Fast forward 4 years… my wife and I and now 4 year old daughter called them again and Patrick was on the scene that day with a solution. The website will only let me leave 5 stars but I would give a billion if I could. I highly recommend these guys for any water related needs. Thank you so much guys."

"Ben Franklin and especially Phillip Munoz were great. Though booked thru Nov., Phillip came out on a Sat to look at an outside leak that was causing tons of water usage and a leak into the basement. He had to come back the following Sat when a backhoe was available and go down 7 feet to get to the leak. He and his partner got totally filthy but fixed the problem. They cleaned up the area and gave good advice on a couple other potential problems. I plan to use them again for a drainage problem and recommend them wholeheartedly."

"It took two days to tear out the old insulation under the bottom floor and install encapsulation in the whole crawlspace. Nick and his crew did quality work getting the job completed. They also patched holes in the foundation, hauled off all the old, dirty insulation and torn vapor barrier. All-in-all a very accommodating crew."

Basement Waterproofing FAQs, answered by experts

A vapor barrier can last over 20 years, but they are vulnerable to pests, flooding, and other natural disasters. If your home weathers a storm or is treated for any pest infestation, make sure to have a drywall pro come check the integrity of your vapor barrier. It’s also important to have a pro install a vapor barrier since improper installation can lead to tears or leaks in the barrier that shorten its lifespan.

Underfloor insulation alone will not cause moisture and mold, but improper installation can. Although the purpose is to seal any drafts, your subfloor still needs ventilation. If you seal the area too tightly and prevent all airflow, this can cause moisture to get trapped. This moisture eventually leads to mold and—if your floors are wood—rotting.

Anything having to do with the structure of your home, such as raising the ceiling, is usually the most expensive part of finishing a basement. Another project component that could be a surprisingly high expense is adding an exterior entrance. 

The cost of a walkout basement can be anywhere from $5,000 to $35,000.

No, your basement dehumidifier doesn’t need to be on 24/7. While it’s an excellent tool for tackling damp, musty air, especially in humid seasons, leaving it running nonstop can backfire. Over-drying the space can mess with your sinuses, warp wood, and even crack certain materials. Instead, only use your humidifier when moisture levels rise above 50%, and then give it a break when the humidity levels drop.

Plan on cleaning your crawl space at least once a year, though twice a year is ideal. During the cleaning, remove any debris or dust and check for potential issues like pest infestations or water damage. The sooner you catch these issues, the easier (and cheaper) it will be to fix them.
