"I was having quite a bit of water come in through the basement walls. Since the water proofing was done we have had heavy down pours, several tropical storms and a hurricane and the basement and crawl space have been dry."

"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."

"

Very well.  I feel so comfortable about the stability of my home.  Jim, the owner of the company, was always looking for the best and most reasonable way to solve a problem.  His crew was hard working and came to work when they said they would (except for the rainy periods of course).  The house was empty so they stayed at my home (so they could be close to the job) and kept very good care of it.

 It was an expensive repair but I believe I could not have found a better crew for the same price. Since I was out of state much of the time, they kept me informed at every step, which is helpful when you can not be there.
I definitely would recommend them for waterproofing but I was most impressed with their ability to do the structural reinforcement."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

While a standard gutter system is widely considered the most effective way to prevent water damage to your home's foundation, several alternatives are available. These options can be used on their own in certain climates or as supplementary protection.

Common alternatives include:

  • Rain Chains: These are decorative chains that hang from the roof's edge, guiding rainwater to the ground.

  • Drip Edges: These metal strips are installed at the edge of the roof to direct water away from the fascia. While often used with gutters, they can be paired with a ground-level solution but are typically not sufficient on their own.

  • Rain Dispersal Systems: These systems work by breaking up the heavy sheet of water flowing off the roof, dispersing it over a wider area.

  • French Drains: This ground-level system uses a perforated pipe in a gravel-filled trench to collect and redirect water runoff away from the house.

  • Drip Paths: Placed directly below the roofline, these paths made of concrete, stone, or other materials prevent soil erosion and guide water away.

It's important to note that some alternatives like rain chains and dispersal systems may not be adequate in regions with heavy rainfall because they don't divert water away from the foundation as effectively as a full gutter system. Ground-based solutions like French drains can be very effective but are often more expensive and can affect your landscaping and curb appeal. Many experts recommend installing a full gutter system for maximum protection and using alternatives as supplementary measures.

Standing water under your house can threaten its structural integrity. If water pools in your crawl space, it can damage the foundation and the structure above ground, causing wood rot, mold, and other problems. If you have a concrete foundation, standing water under your house can also make your foundation slabs crack.

Yes, water and water vapor can seep through cracks in your basement floor, which means you should address all basement floor cracks, even if they don’t indicate structural issues. Sealing settling cracks and shrinkage cracks is a good idea to keep water and moisture outside where it belongs. Doing so can improve your indoor air quality, reduce the risk of mold growth, make your home more comfortable, and help prevent pest infestation.

“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.

French drains and yard grading systems are two highly effective ways to fix standing water around the foundation. Since the French drain uses a perforated pipe covered by gravel, you won’t have to worry about water taking the soil away from your foundation. Meanwhile, yard grading levels out the ground to prevent water from gathering around your foundation.
