"I highly recommend this contractor. They were highly professional in every way: they always came just when they said they would, they did exactly what they said they would, they were great at solving problems that arose during the basement waterproofing project, and they did a really good job of keeping us informed multiple times a day about the progress of the project. The crew that handled our project was outstanding. We were especially appreciative of the work done by the foreman, Dan. Just great all around work."

"Great company to work with, very friendly knowledgeable people and customer satisfaction is their goal. Matt and his crew did a superb job restoring our finished basement after it got flooded when our sump pump had failed during heavy rains. Dual pumps were installed, along with waterproof and mold proof walls and flooring and a Sedona dehumidifier air purification system."

"From the beginning working with Guilio to come up with the plan to scheduling, and the work itself this was a great experience. This was one of 3 bids I got for the project. I had Chris, Steve and Rick working on my job and they were great. Showed up exactly on time, were respectful of the space and completed the job job faster than I thought they would. They made sure to provide regular updates while working and walked me through the work and the system to make sure I understood everything before they left. I would definitely recommend Highlander for your Waterproofing needs."

"Mold Buster's got it right. Chris and Sayde and the crew are hard working honest people who know what they are doing. Not only is Chris knowledgeable about this service, he is honest and forthright. He is committed to your total satisfaction with the job. We hired him after we inherited my father's house/cottage. The roof had been leaking and moisture had been getting into the basement and exterior walls, causing mold growth throughout. Chris quickly identified all the problem areas, suggested various solutions, worked with us to set up budget and schedule, answered all our questions, and completed the job in a timely fashion. Bottom line is we are very pleased with the result, would use Chris again, and recommend him highly."

Basement Waterproofing FAQs, answered by experts

If you decide to fill the space around your home’s foundation with landscaping materials, it’s important to consider the aesthetic as well as technical factors like drainage and protection from pests and the elements. Materials such as gravel, rubber mulch, concrete, and brick masonry are all good options.

Proper drainage prevents water damage, mold growth, and foundation settling, protecting your home’s structural integrity.

Overwatering can cause issues like water pooling and drainage problems. To prevent overwatering, monitor your soil levels on a regular basis and change your watering schedule as necessary.

Yes, it is possible to over-dehumidify a house by removing too much moisture from the air. This can create an overly dry environment that negatively affects those with respiratory or skin issues, and may cause your skin, hair, and sinuses to feel dry. However, this is unlikely to happen with most modern dehumidifiers, as they are equipped with moisture sensors and adjustable settings. These features allow the unit to pause automatically when the desired humidity level is reached, preventing the air from becoming uncomfortably dry. In contrast, older or more basic dehumidifiers left running for too long could potentially over-dry the air. To avoid this, aim for a balance between removing excess moisture and maintaining a comfortable environment. You can often monitor your home's humidity levels using a modern thermostat for guidance.

You should take care of any sign of water in your basement, whether it’s dampness after heavy rain or puddles of water on the floor. Besides potentially causing a health hazard, the moisture can damage your home’s structure and foundation. Furthermore, mold can grow quickly and spread throughout the rest of your home. With mold remediation costs ranging between $1,200 and $3,400, it’s best to avoid mold issues by fixing the leak.
