"Chris ‘s work was exceptional. He was the hardest working, with results far exceeding my expectations. He takes out all of loose rocks/etc and smoothed out ground after vapor barrier removed. He also installed a catch basin and sump pump in low point. Tested all. I was impressed enough that I gave him additional work to quote."

"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."

"Found that toilet was not sitting on seal & floor correctly, causing minor leaking. New seal was needed as well as shims to keep the toilet from rocking. Only complaint is that the floor screws were not cut down so that covers could be put back on. Not sure what happened to the covers - I think they may have thrown those away."

"Tim did a great job with the replacement of our water heater. Even though it was the day after Thanksgiving he moved some of his other appointments around to come to our home that afternoon. Tim and his assistant were careful to put on shoe covers in the house and to observe COVID 19 precautions. The job required more complicated plumbing since we have a desuperheater loop from our geothermal heat pump that connects to the water heater; the additional charge for this work was minimal. Tim was here until after 5:00 that evening, with the result that we had hot water over the weekend."

"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"

"

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

Flooded basement cleanup can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks, depending on the extent of water damage, the type of water involved, and the need for repairs or mold remediation. Severe cases with structural damage or extensive mold may require longer timelines. Quick action and professional help can speed up the process and reduce overall damage.

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.

Regular inspections, proper drainage management, and ensuring soil stability help prevent future settlement issues.

The process might take a few days to a week, depending on the method chosen, area size, and weather conditions. Some solutions, like simple interior sealants, may require less time.

Crawl spaces are the more desirable option overall because they provide additional space for storage and utilities, but they are more expensive to install and maintain. Slab foundations are considered a better option in warmer climates where the depth of the frost line isn’t an issue because they’re more affordable, but crawl spaces are better in areas where the frost line is deep or where flooding can be an issue.
