"We recently had our basement waterproofed by the American A-1 Waterproofing Company, and I couldn't be happier with the job they did. From start to finish, the team at American A-1 Waterproofing was professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated to ensuring that my basement would be completely waterproof. First, the team came out to assess my basement and provide me with a detailed estimate of the work that needed to be done. They took the time to explain the process to me, answer my questions, and address any concerns I had. I felt like they really listened to my needs and customized their approach to fit my specific situation. Once the work began, the team was punctual, respectful, and efficient. They took great care to protect our home and belongings, and they kept us updated throughout the process. They worked quickly but thoroughly, and we were impressed by their attention to detail. The waterproofing work itself was top-notch. The team used high-quality materials and techniques to ensure that every nook and cranny of my basement was completely sealed and protected from water damage. They also installed 3 sump pump and created a French drain to further safeguard our home. A-1 did a great job waterproofing our flooded and leaking basement. They kept coming back as bigger rainstorms showed smaller leaks and waterproofed the inside and outside until stayed dry. Overall, I highly recommend American A-1 Waterproofing for anyone in need of basement waterproofing services. They are professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated to ensuring customer satisfaction. Thanks to their hard work, I now have a safe and dry basement that I can enjoy for years to come!"

"I called Arid when my sump pump that the previous owner left died during a rain storm. I spoke with Pat, who was extremely responsive, honest, and professional. Pat was very understanding as I explained that water had come up into the basement through the sump well. He sold me on a primary and backup pump system with battery backup and sent his crew out to my home that day. The installation took about 40 min and 20 min after the pump was installed, the water levels dropped back to normal. I have already hired Arid again to come back and perform a liner install around the pump and will look to Pat and his team in the future for all my basement waterproofing needs."

"Weather-Tite was recommended to me by a contractor who I trust to evaluate and repair water and moisture issues that I was having in my garage. Bob and his crew did a phenomenal job!! My husband and I are beyond thrilled with the results! They are professional, courteous, and fastidious. Half of my garage is underground, as there is a hill in my front yard leading up to the house. The repair involved excavating dirt along the front of my house next to the garage foundation wall down to the drain pipe, repairing cracks and holes, applying waterproofing and more. The interior wall was cleaned and drylock masonry paint was applied. My landscaping on the outside had to be removed and then put back. They did such a good job that you couldn't even tell it had been moved at all. We also had Bob and his crew complete a second job for us. This involved excavating another trench but in the back of the house along 16 feet of the foundation, replacing a drain pipe and waterproofing. They were at our house for three days. During that time and after we had torrential rain and everything stayed dry!!! I highly recommend Weather-Tite Waterproofing, Inc.!"

"National Pro Waterproofing did an amazing job in our basement. Mike got us scheduled quickly, was professional and addressed any concerns I had. He showed up on time with his very experienced crew and they got the job done in one day. They worked quickly, neatly and even put up a plastic barrier to keep the dust from spreading out of the work area. They left the work area immaculate. I highly recommend National Pro Waterproofing!"

Customers say: True professional

"For several years we have had a leak in our attic near our chimneys. After every wind driven storm water would collect in our strategically placed buckets. The leaks persisted despite a new roof and multiple attempts at waterproofing the chimneys. Antonio solved our problem. He demolished, rebuilt and waterproofed our chimneys from the roof line up. We were very impressed with his professionalism, knowledge and attention to detail and are happy to report that despite several heavy rain events we have had no water in the attic since the work was completed. Antonio's crew was punctual, courteous and hard working. We highly recommend Mr. Debenedetto and would not hesitate to use him for any masonry projects we might have in the future."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

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.

Waterproofing or encapsulating protects against moisture, preventing mold growth and structural damage. These services also enhance energy efficiency and improve air quality by keeping humidity levels in check.

The foundation repair that will work best varies based on the extent of the damage, the underlying cause, soil conditions, weather conditions, and more. Permanent foundation solutions like underpinning and exterior drainage solutions are better than temporary fixes that don’t address the source of the issue. Some examples of more temporary solutions include mudjacking or slabjacking, waterproof paint, and dampproofing. The best course of action is to have a reliable foundation specialist inspect your issue, treat the underlying problem, and restabilize your foundation.

Water damage always poses a primary risk of mold and mildew, but growth is not guaranteed. The chances of mold developing depend on several factors, including the severity of the damage and how quickly the area is cleaned and dried. To prevent mold, you must act quickly—ideally within the first 24 hours. Clean up all water and thoroughly dry the affected area. If the damage is extensive, you were unable to address it immediately, or you suspect mold has already started to grow, it is best to assume it is present and hire a professional mold inspector or removal expert to assess the situation.
