"Response time was very quick, which I greatly appreciated because my water heater flooded the platform it stood on and caused a great amount of damage to the surrounding walls as well overnight. Removal and installation went very well. Jose was very professional and informative. I absolutely recommend and will continue to use this company."

"Company was late by hours to every appointment, always excuses and complaints. Didn't have all the equipment required to do the job, borrowed mine, asked for a day to "purchase parts", then showed up 4 hours late the following day with no parts. Had to call the office to have someone go buy the parts. Was without any water to the house from a Tuesday at 3:00pm until Thursday at 7:00pm. Finished filling the hole outside my front door the following Monday after missing the Friday appt. completely. Had to ask for my extension cord back. I paid cash for each segment of the work that was done so payment was never a question."

"Outstanding service from Nick M. Proved awesome support, knowing how to get the job done. Answered any questions I had and took the time to complete the job. Not like other vendors in Vegas, he was not pushing other serviced or things I did not need. I will be calling Vegas Valley again and asking for him to come out in a few weeks to take care of some other plumbing project. Ask for Nick, he did an awesome job. Keep up the good work Nick!!!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

It’s not the number of weep holes that should be of concern to builders but rather their spacing. Weep holes are usually spaced anywhere between 16 inches on center when using round tubes or wicking materials and 24 inches on center when using open-head joints. This is a more conservative spacing than the 33-inch maximum spacing on center that’s mentioned in the International Residential Code. All in all, the total number of weep holes a brick exterior should have will depend on the size of the structure.

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.

Regular inspections, maintaining proper grading around the foundation, and keeping gutters clear are advisable. Vapor barriers and sealants may need checking for wear after several years.

Crawl space foundation problems can stem from a few different issues, but the most common are moisture and water problems and soil instability. Moisture and water issues are often a result of poor drainage, which can lead to water intrusion and soil expansion and contraction, leaving your foundation under added stress. A few things can cause soil instability, including poor drainage, karst landscapes and resulting sinkholes, and poorly compacted soil during construction.

Topical sealers adhere to the surface of concrete to create a protective layer. In many cases, this is all you need for concrete that sees light to moderate traffic, such as your basement. Penetrating sealers, on the other hand, bond with the free lime in the top layer of concrete to form calcium silicate, which prevents liquid from passing through. This type of sealer protects the surface from water, oil, and gasoline spills.
