"After years of a damp basement and mildew problems a water leak from a broken kitchen pipe above the basement led us to use our insurance and redo the floors. That led to us wanting to solve the wet basement problem once and for all if possible. Mildew experts were going to be very expensive and not solve the problem of dampness that created it. I read a lot of reviews and then called B-Sure. When family owner Ron came to analyze the problem he was knowledgeable and very forthcoming about costs and pros and cons. He suggested we put a french drain around our basement to change the hydrostatic pressure around the house. B-Sure also removed all mildew, took out two covered windows and filled in two window wells along the ground, replaced our sump pump and replaced an old window. All of that cost less than the mildew company was going to charge to just remove some mildew from part of the basement. This was a very big project in the winter in the middle of a pandemic and the family members and other employees who worked on it were on-time (or early!) polite and did a great job cleaning up! It only took them a few days to do all the work! Six months later our basement is dry and nice and that is after a spring with a lot of rain. We just hired them again to work on solving an issue we have had for years with a drainage pipe in our yard that is clogged. This company is great at what they do and you get a lot for your money. They get my highest recommendation!"

"ErieHome waterproofed my basement. The crew was polite, kind, and came in, did an excellent job in 3 days by digging a trench on the inside of the basement, removing the dirt from the bottom of the foundation, installed corrugated tubing, rock and then cement. They also installed a Humidex airpurifier and new sump pump with a backup pump. They cleaned up afterward. Any questions I had were answered in a respectful manor. I now have peace of mind knowing that I no longer have to monitor weather forecasts for rain or have to clean up anymore incoming water. The system is warranted for the life of the house and included within the price, which increased the value of my home."

"Woodford brothers did a great job waterproofing my basement. There estimate was right on par with other companies and actually a bit lower. The workers were very professional and very respectful of my property and house. Shoutout to Hunter who answered all questions thoroughly and didn’t mind at all how many I had as he was working! They showed up on time and worked all day, barely taking breaks. And so far, and we’ve had a few rainy days, we have had no water in our basement. I would not hesitate to recommend Woodford Brothers."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Syracuse professionals first address immediate threats like active leaks, significant foundation cracks, or visible mold growth. Next, they repair or upgrade sump pumps and drainage systems to prevent future water entry. Preventive measures, such as installing vapor barriers or regrading soil, follow. Seasonal timing is important—urgent repairs are handled before winter, while larger exterior projects are planned for spring or summer to ensure lasting results.

Helpful?

Syracuse homeowners are choosing interior French drains and sump pumps with battery backups to handle frequent storms. Vapor barriers and integrated dehumidifiers are favored for moisture control, while moisture-resistant flooring is popular for finished basements. Many are opting for smart sump pump systems with remote alerts and insulated foundation walls, which help with energy efficiency and make future basement renovations easier.

Helpful?

In Syracuse, basement waterproofing is often needed along foundation walls exposed to heavy snow and freeze-thaw cycles, especially where older concrete block foundations are present. Floor-wall joints and window wells are common entry points for moisture after spring snowmelt. Pay close attention to sump pump pits and exterior foundation edges, as shifting soils and poor surface drainage can accelerate water intrusion in these areas.

Helpful?

In Syracuse, ensure safety by selecting water-based sealants and installing temporary barriers to separate work zones from living spaces. Use HEPA air filtration to reduce dust, especially in older homes where lead paint or asbestos may be present. Store all tools and chemicals in locked containers, and keep walkways dry and slip-resistant. Ventilate the area well to minimize odors and reduce the risk of mold during cold months.

Helpful?

In Syracuse, piling snow or mulch against the foundation, letting gutters overflow with autumn leaves, or using salt near basement walls can weaken waterproofing. Failing to extend downspouts away from the house and allowing poor grading to persist increases water risk. Indoors, neglecting sump pump checks or blocking ventilation can lead to moisture buildup, so regular maintenance and proactive drainage habits are essential.
