HydroHelp911 has been helping property owners repair their foundations and solve their moisture problems in North Carolina for many years. The company started out as Advanced Ventilation Solutions which grow quickly in crawl space repair and basement waterproofing, but we did very little in terms of ventilation services. This caused our company to re-evaluate the brand to reflect our core services and companies future direction, thus HydroHelp911 was born and ready to service the residents of beautiful North Carolina!

"Stay away! My project date was postponed 3 times and with each email notification I received, it stated this is a TENATIVE DATE. Frustrated, I canceled the contract only to discover that in the fine print of the contract language, HydroHelp911 gets to keep 35% of the total project cost. They chose to enforce the contract to the letter. My initial deposit was gone! All terms and conditions in their contract are written to defend HydroHelp911 legally. Again, they chose to enforce these terms even after 3 delays. Potential customers beware."

Sturdy Homes LLC specializes in structural repair and water mitigation. Bouncy floors, erosion around your footer, horizontal cracks on your basement walls, we can repair these issues for you. We have been fixing all issues associated with foundations for the past 10 years. I spent the first 4 years of that time being trained to properly fix these issues by a licensed engineer.

"Micah came to my home gave me a price and arrived to do the work when he said he would. He did an excellent job installing my French drain and waterproofing the house. The work was neat and clean when he was done. I highly recommend Sturdy Homes LLC for good work at a reasonable price."

Basement Leak Repair questions, answered by experts

In some cases, operating a snake can damage your drain and pipes. This depends on the overall condition of your pipes and how gently you operate the auger. For instance, older galvanized pipes covered in zinc are susceptible to scratches when using a drain snake. Additionally, it’s common for newbies to apply too much force when extending the snake, leading to scratches and related damage. You can also crack the porcelain with an electric auger if you’re snaking a toilet drain. If you’re using a manual snake or auger, the risk is minimal.

Many prevention methods can be used individually or in combination to waterproof your basement. Some of the most common waterproofing methods include:

  • Using dehumidifiers 

  • Silicate concrete sealers

  • Vapor barriers 

  • Baseboard channels 

  • Drain tile systems

  • Waterproofing paint

  • Drainage systems

  • Epoxy injection

  • Interior French drains

  • Exterior excavation and waterproofing

  • Cement waterproofing

  • Weep tiles

  • Liquid membrane

  • Sheet membrane 

  • Yard grading

  • Gutters and downspouts

The cost of basement waterproofing is $4,950 for the average homeowner. However, you could end up paying between $600 and $14,000, depending on factors like basement size, waterproofing method, and the region you live in. 

If you live in an area with heavy rainfall, you might be paying more for waterproofing than if you lived somewhere drier since waterproofing contractors would be in high demand. Likewise, a 500-foot basement costs between $2,500 and $5,000 to waterproof, but that price rises significantly for a larger basement.

Physically, the most challenging part of finishing a basement is installing egress windows or doors when the space is below ground level. Mentally, the hardest part may be envisioning the project and planning around load-bearing and mechanical obstacles.

The best way to fix dampness in walls is to find the root cause and fix the underlying issue. After that, you’ll need to dry the wall with a heavy-duty fan and potentially a dehumidifier. If the wall has water damage, you can remove the damaged drywall, patch it with a new piece, and then paint it to match the rest of the wall.
