"One of the best home repair experience ever. Everything about this engagement was first rate. Our tech, Jeremy, was excellent and we hope to have him as or tech in the future. Jeremy gave a very thorough cleaning to two older units in a house we purchased. He also installed advanced UV filtering on both units. All around great work."

"Mr. Korth was able to advance the appointment time to the same day and tested the water softener, confirming our expectation of poor performance. We arranged to replace the old water softener the next day, which was done on the projected schedule, very quickly.

"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

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 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.

Whether to waterproof your basement from the interior or exterior depends on several factors, including your budget.

Exterior waterproofing is generally considered the superior method because it stops water at the source, preventing it from seeping into and damaging your basement walls. This approach offers the most protection, making it ideal if you use your basement for storage.

By contrast, interior waterproofing is often less expensive and requires less labor because the area is more accessible.

For maximum protection against water leakage and moisture, applying waterproofing measures to both the inside and outside is the best solution. However, if you must choose only one, stopping water from the outside is the most effective approach to preserve your foundation and prevent damage.

You’ll need to reseal the foundation every five to 10 years, depending on the sealant you’ve used, the moisture conditions present in and around your home, and the condition of your foundation. Having a foundation inspection conducted before reapplication can help you catch any problems before you begin resealing. Of course, if you notice any new leaks or other moisture problems at any time, it may be necessary to reseal the foundation sooner.

French drains and yard grading systems are two highly effective ways to fix standing water around the foundation. Since the French drain uses a perforated pipe covered by gravel, you won’t have to worry about water taking the soil away from your foundation. Meanwhile, yard grading levels out the ground to prevent water from gathering around your foundation.
