"I can't say enough good things about Proficient Plumbing. This was a big job. They couldn't reach the pipe to replace it from the basement due to a bathroom bump out and had to excavate outside to be able to remove an old, rusted & broken cast iron pipe and replace it with PVC. Paul, Kyle, Tim, and Jose were amazing to work with. Apparently this problem was years in the making, and I'm so relieved that it's finally been resolved. I've hired them before and would definitely hire them again. They're true professionals, honest, and communicate in a way that's easy to understand. And Kristen kept me informed every step of the way and was such a pleasure to deal with."

"John and his team were wonderful! Yes, wonderful!â I had checked out quite a few companies over several years and interviewed many other companies to correct the water problems in my walkout basement. The Blue Planet team was incredible. They were on schedule and over delivered on every aspect of my project. They did exactly as they said, it made me wish I had fixed the water problem sooner. Everything in my basement is looking so much better than it did before their work. And of course the basement is dry."

"My car had to go in for repairs on Saturday due to an accident.   It was a blessing in disguise because on Saturday night, since I couldn't go out, I went to the basement looking for something to do and found a large puddle of water.   I saw my water heater was leaking from the top and bottom - a result of being an old heater and well water.  I shut off the water to figure out what to do.  I turned to Angie's List on Sunday morning and found Garon T plumbing.  I contacted company on Sunday morning and spoke with the owner Tom. Though he was ready to come right out to assist, I didn't want to spoil his weekend. We scheduled an apt for first thing Monday morning and he promptly arrived before the established time.  He drained the old water heater, removed it, put in the new one.  Everything was done neatly and I once again have water.  Thanks Tom.

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

A leak under your foundation from a water supply line or sewage line is likely to lead to water pooling on certain areas of your property during rainfall, abnormally fast-growing or green grass in certain sections of your lawn, and differential settlement of your foundation, which can result in large foundation cracks, windows and doors failing to operate properly, a wavy or sloping roofline, or damages or irregularities in your interior walls, including cracks and bulging. If it’s a plumbing line embedded in your slab, you’ll also likely notice above-average water bills.

If you set up a dehumidifier, it will usually dry out your wet crawl space within 12 to 24 hours. Once the space is dry, it’s a good idea to take preventative measures to keep it dry. These include installing a French drain or other exterior foundation drainage system, installing a sump pump in the crawl space, and installing a vapor barrier in addition to leaving the dehumidifier running.

The best basement waterproofing method depends on the specific issue causing the water intrusion. For minor problems, simple solutions like installing a properly functioning gutter system to direct runoff away and grading the soil to slope away from your foundation can be effective.

If you have more significant water problems, the solution will need to be more robust:

  • For standing water on the basement floor, a floor drain or a sump pump system may be the best solution.

  • For water pooling around the foundation, installing an exterior French drain can intercept water before it reaches the basement walls.

Other effective waterproofing methods, which can be used depending on your home's specific needs, climate, and soil type, include sealing the interior walls, landscape alteration, installing interior drainage systems, and using a dehumidification system to control moisture levels.

Yes, many repair services include reapplying waterproofing and UV-resistant coatings.

A sewage smell in your crawl space is usually from a damaged or clogged pipe leaking sewer gasses or actual sewage underneath your home, but there are some other common causes. Moisture, from poor or damaged encapsulation or a malfunctioning sump pump, can harbor mold and bacteria, causing a musty smell. Pests can also get stuck in your crawl space and die, which causes a sewage-like odor.
