"It was a complex project. They were very careful with their procedures and raised sunken concrete sections next to the house and around a pool to allow for drainage. They filled the major cracks. They were courteous and on-time over several days. After many years the water in the basement problem has been resolved."

"We faced a plumbing emergency on Friday afternoon. The supply line to our bathroom sink sprung a leak, the shutoff valve was corroded shut, and other parts were failing and needed replacement. All of the plumbers we have used previously were unavailable. We called Boss Pro and they came quickly and stopped the leak. They collected all the parts necessary to correct the situation and came back to complete the repairs and reinstall the sink. We are very pleased with their work and will call them the next time we have a plumbing problem."

"Randy from R & R Masonry and his crew did an excellent job. I had water leaking into the basement. They dug down outside and found two small holes which they patched and put waterproof concrete along the whole side wall and installed a drainage pipe to keep water away from the basement wall. They put sealer around flashing of the windows. I also had them replace the step at the back door which had patio steps that kept coming loose. They put one concrete step and I had them install a railing too. I also had them repair the concrete wall of the bilco door too. They did an outstanding job and I highly recommend them."

"I had a stump ground down and needed the area cleaned up afterward, and I couldn’t be happier with the service I received. Bryan was quick to respond, communicated clearly throughout the entire process, and showed up exactly when he said he would. The job was done quickly and efficiently, and he was very friendly and professional the whole time. Everything was cleaned up great afterward. I would absolutely recommend him to others and would definitely hire him again in the future!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

In Schenectady, interior basement waterproofing typically takes 2 to 7 days, while exterior solutions may require 1 to 4 weeks, depending on foundation repair needs and site complexity. Permit approval, weather, and access can impact timelines. Projects in historic neighborhoods or involving multiple systems may take longer. It’s wise to schedule 4 to 8 weeks ahead, especially during peak spring and summer seasons.

Helpful?

In Schenectady, success depends on using materials that withstand freeze-thaw cycles, installing proper exterior drainage, and ensuring foundation repair is thorough. Effective moisture control, high-quality sealants, and integrating sump pumps with reliable backup systems are crucial. Homes with clay-heavy soil or historic stone foundations require specialized solutions. Regular maintenance and inspections help extend the life of your waterproofing investment in NY’s variable climate.

Helpful?

In Schenectady, it’s time to consider basement waterproofing if you notice persistent dampness, white mineral deposits on walls, or musty odors after heavy rain or spring thaw. Cracks in the foundation, peeling paint, or rust on appliances are common warning signs. Homes with older stone foundations or those near the Mohawk River are especially prone to moisture issues and benefit from early intervention.

Helpful?

For a smooth basement waterproofing project in Schenectady, confirm all permits are secured and utilities are clearly marked. Schedule work during dry months for best results. Protect landscaping and clear pathways for equipment, especially on narrow city lots. Notify neighbors about potential noise or access needs. Choose a contractor experienced with local soil types and coordinate storage for belongings to streamline the process.

Helpful?

In Schenectady, basement waterproofing can impact HVAC, plumbing, or electrical systems, especially if sump pump installation or interior drainage channels are needed. Temporary relocation of appliances or access panels may be required. Before work begins, coordinate with your contractor to ensure water heaters, circuit breakers, and utility lines remain accessible and protected, particularly in older homes with tight or finished basement spaces.
