"They are very professional and honest! We had water intrusion into basement from wall during recent heavy rain storm. I contacted Falcone (they were on recommended service provider list of our subdivision) and Sharese got back to me very quickly. Communication was very smooth and professional as she scheduled me for an inspection. The technician Walter was friendly and did a professional inspection, after which he determined that the issue is the gutters dumping water on the ground by the basement. He didn't recommend any work be done in the basement. I truly appreciated his professionalism and honesty. If I ever have issues with the basement, I will call Falcone in a heartbeat! Thank you!"

"Mr Cortez pushes himself to make sure the job turns out to be 1st class. Other companies said that I did not need a trench around my foundation ($2500) but he insisted I did. During a hard rain after he had completed the trench drain he showed me where the water was coming in. It was a lot of water. If the other companies had did the job it would have ruined all the work, and been a waist of money. His crew has works from 8 to 5 each day, and I mean work.He is also very kind and trustworthy. His finished project is beautiful."

"The Tar Heel Basement Systems Team was a true pleasure to work with. From the very first meeting / inspection with Nathan S to the actual installation and receiving the final product. Also, just to note...the installation team with Tar Heel Basement Systems was excellent. They answered all of my questions and provided daily updates on the installation progress. They provided me with pictures and again answered ALL of my questions and was super patient with me. The work quality was top shelf. I am more than satisfied with the quality of work performed! Thank you again to the great installation team that installed my crawl space enclosure, shout out to Stephon, Matt, and Jorge (and Nate)...great job guys!!!! and very much appreciated! Also, thanks to Nathan S for all of his great advice and wisdom in planning this project for me. Yes, Tar Heel Basement Systems did a great job!!! Thank you!!!"

"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!"

"I can?t say enough good things about Rozier Pest Control and the incredible service they?ve provided for my home here in South Hill, Virginia. About a decade ago, I was in an emergency situation and they came to the rescue with an encapsulation job that truly saved my house from potential water damage. The level of detail and the quality of their work were impeccable. Fast forward to today, nearly ten years later, the encapsulation still stands strong! I recently got under the house to shut off the water for some shower renovations, and everything remains perfectly clean and well-maintained. The dehumidifier is still running smoothly, which is a testament to the quality of their work. Michael Wallace, the owner-operator, made the experience even better. He was fantastic to work with.. Very professional, reasonable with pricing, and someone you can really trust. I would absolute"

"My prior water heater, a 50-gallon tank, started leaking after 15 years. I called Streamline to confirm that it needed replacement, and to replace it. I was considering a tankless water heater already, and the first tech walked me through the pros and cons, then wrote up an estimate. Two additional techs came the next day to install the heater and the necessary gas and power lines. The only issue I had was that one of the newly installed gas fittings leaked gas into the basement. I shut off the supply valve and called Streamline, and they came out within half an hour to fix it at their expense. Mistakes happen, and I was impressed with how professionally they corrected that one."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

In Durham, you can address minor basement waterproofing concerns by sealing hairline cracks with specialized waterproofing compounds and ensuring downspouts direct water well away from your foundation. Regularly inspect for early signs of basement moisture, like condensation or slight musty odors. Avoid attempting repairs on wide cracks, pooling water, or any issues involving structural movement—these require a basement waterproofing professional’s expertise to prevent basement flooding.

Helpful?

In Durham, signs like persistent dampness, musty smells, or visible water stains on basement walls indicate it’s time to consider basement waterproofing. Watch for new or widening cracks, sticking doors, or uneven flooring—these can signal foundation or moisture issues. If your home is older or you notice problems after storms, scheduling a professional assessment helps prevent more severe basement flooding or structural damage.

Helpful?

Durham’s expansive clay soil and frequent heavy rains make moisture control essential for effective basement waterproofing. Schedule exterior work during drier months to minimize weather delays. Always confirm local neighborhood or historic district requirements, as some areas may have specific rules for waterproofing materials or drainage systems. Before digging, ensure underground utilities are marked to prevent accidental damage during your basement waterproofing project.

Helpful?

In Durham, neglecting to redirect downspouts, letting soil slope toward your foundation, or overwatering landscaping near the house can undermine basement waterproofing efforts. Indoors, failing to ventilate laundry areas or skipping dehumidifier use increases moisture levels. Regularly check for small cracks, maintain clear gutters, and keep consistent soil moisture to support long-term moisture control and protect your basement waterproofing investment.

Helpful?

When hiring basement waterproofing professionals in Durham, look for experience with local soil and moisture control challenges. Request written estimates, proof of insurance, and references from recent waterproofing projects in the area. Examine their portfolio for evidence of successful basement flooding prevention. Be cautious of unusually low bids, pressure to pay upfront, or vague project details—these are warning signs to continue your search.
