"would NOT recommend! Before I bought my house the seller hired this company to put up carbon fiber strips.. They put carbon fiber straps into our crawl space.. stood by this work and claimed there was nothing wrong with this work.. however we had many foundation contractors come out because it did not seem right and we were told a wall anchor was going to be put it and found these straps instead. and all said the same thing. What is this it looks like a 5 year old did it.. ram jack stood by this work and says it is doing its job and there is no need for an anchor at the bottom of the straps and it not being flushed against the wall and pulling up is a “ blemish not a failure” however once I reached out to the manufacturer of the carbon fiber strips I get an email stating it is “ dis heartining to see such a poor install and they will help me through this entire process.” Since the walls were not prepped properly or carbon fiber straps placed properly. as well as the co founder saying this job looks like a 5 year old did it as well. However they have refused to reach back out to the co founder of fortress who has tried to be in contact with them. Instead they email the seller of my house and CC me in stating they will only pay 1600 dollars of the job out of the $4800 that was paid.. SAVE YOURSELF THE HEADACHE!!!! *** anyone who knows about carbon fiber straps is they need to be anchored at the top and bottom however in our case they did not pour a footing to properly secure the carbon fiber straps with an anchor at the bottom***"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

It can be safe to live in a house with minor foundation problems as long as the issues are checked and monitored by a professional. Minor cracks are rarely a cause for structural concerns, but signs of leaks, sinking, or bulging walls should be strongly scrutinized by a foundation specialist. Similarly, it's always smart to hire a professional when you're concerned about buying a house with foundation repairs.

Preventing future basement flooding often involves installing sump pumps, improving drainage, sealing foundation cracks, and maintaining gutters. Costs vary, but preventive measures can range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars, depending on the solutions chosen. Investing in prevention can save you money on future flooded basement cleanup costs and repairs.

Although waterproofing your basement may not directly increase the value of your home, it will protect the value you already have by preventing water damage. A basement without any signs of water will be more appealing to prospective home buyers. A leaky basement is a major red flag during a home inspection, and it will likely reduce the amount that buyers are willing to pay.

Mold can grow anywhere in your home where there’s moisture that doesn’t dry out, usually in areas that are either not ventilated properly or where moisture gathers continuously. Insulation, drywall, and foundations typically provide mold with areas to grow if moisture is present and does not have a chance to dry out. Some of the most common areas in a home for mold growth include:

  • Attic

  • Walls

  • Bathroom

  • Crawlspace

  • Basement

The easiest methods for waterproofing your basement include installing a gutter system to direct excess runoff away from your foundation and grading the soil away from your home to pull water away from the concrete. In some cases, these methods alone can be enough to eliminate water intrusion and moisture problems in your basement. If you have excessive rainfall in your area, though, you might need to employ more complicated solutions, like installing a French drain and a dehumidification system inside.
