"Chris was phenomenal! First off he is timely, has great customer service and included a free estimate. Chris gave updates daily and provided pictures of the work completed. He completed the work and came back by to fix a leaking hose. Chris replaced the hose immediately. He is an entrepreneur who has kept his word after he getting paid. Chris has been a great communicator and I recommend his services to anyone who is looking for quality work, reasonable prices, and exceptional communication. PS - He also installs crawl space sealed entry ways (door). This was needed due a cavity under a porch! Wonderful work Chris! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"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."

"The reviews for Joseph and his company (Newtonian's Renovations LLC) were quite positive and we were very impressed with this young man. He went to the job site and saw what had to be done. He appeared to know what needed to be finished and he assured me that the job would pass inspection. On the 10th of July the building inspection came to make an inspection. The inspection failed. The belly liner had holes that had not been repaired and the insulate floor was missing. The vapor barrier was not complete and the inspection failed. i contacted Joseph and he said he would be back the following week. (week of July 11th) Joseph has not come back and he has not returned any of my phone calls. We are at a standstill and we can not go ahead until the crawl space passes inspection. Joseph has not called us at all and we really hate to have to hire somebody else to finish this job but it has been over three weeks since the failed inspection."

"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."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can finish a basement that leaks, as long as you address the leak first. Before finishing a basement, you’ll need to repair any cracks in the walls and waterproof the basement to prevent future leaks. It’s much harder to clean up a water leak from a finished basement than an unfinished one, so preemptively addressing any leaking areas prevents expensive repairs in the future.

Damp proofing and waterproofing are both methods to help keep your basement dry. Damp proofing keeps soil moisture from entering your basement, which is helpful since your basement is underground. Waterproofing, however, keeps both soil moisture and liquid water out of the basement, which is essential, especially if you live in a wet environment. Because it’s more protective, waterproofing typically costs more than damp proofing.

In some circumstances, foundation refacing or repair may be a better option for your home than sealing a foundation. It’s always a good idea to take steps to prevent moisture problems in your foundation, but if there are any structural concerns, those will usually need to be fixed first. When dealing with foundation issues, it’s a good idea to get a professional opinion so you can avoid bigger problems down the road. 

Water can seep into porous materials like wood beams, floor joists, and roof rafters within minutes, but they’ll need to see prolonged exposure before you have structural damage. Mold can start growing within 24 hours, and mold can eat away at the structural components over time. Wood rot is more of a concern, though. Wet and dry rot are fungal infections that set in in moist conditions and rapidly deteriorate wood, causing major structural damage within just a few months in some cases.

Venting the crawl space can be a good alternative to encapsulation if you live in a dry climate and the moisture problem isn’t severe. You could also try a dehumidifier or install a vapor barrier on the floor, leaving the walls exposed. A new drainage system may eliminate the moisture problem if it is not caused by humidity.
