"Josh Taft and Brad were very personable, professional and efficient. They were also respectful of my house. This is the second time I’ve used your company. No offense, but I hope I don’t need the services of your company again."

"Great experience. All staff were professional, respectful, and empathic. The staff all followed through with everything discussed and kept me informed every step of the way. The staff responded in a very prompt manner, and always with a positive professional manner. I would give them a 10 star on customer service if I was allowed, but the graph only allows a 5 star max. It has been a pleasure to work with this company and the people were real people, never felt like a number in their busy schedule. They went above and beyond in making a referral to another professional to assist us with another concern that did not relate to their work scope. I cant say enough about the politeness and responsiveness of all the staff which I came in contact with. It was a truely a pleasure interacting with Midstate Basement. I would recommend them to anyone who needs work done."

"I called numerous companies to give me an estimate on waterproofing our basement. Brandon was quick to respond and was able to address the problem and find a solution that was directed at the specific issue. Highlander was easy to work with and actually enjoyed having the entire crew at the house. They went above and beyond answering any questions with a guarantee and cost that I could live with. I highly recommend Highlander to anyone looking to fix a damp basement."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Yes, water and water vapor can seep through cracks in your basement floor, which means you should address all basement floor cracks, even if they don’t indicate structural issues. Sealing settling cracks and shrinkage cracks is a good idea to keep water and moisture outside where it belongs. Doing so can improve your indoor air quality, reduce the risk of mold growth, make your home more comfortable, and help prevent pest infestation.

The best ventilation for a crawl space is a fully encapsulated crawl space with its own separate ventilation system. If you go this route, ensure you have the proper crawl space code requirements done and dusted before encapsulating your crawl space with a moisture barrier and installing appliances that may not be up to the proper specs.

While a standard gutter system is widely considered the most effective way to prevent water damage to your home's foundation, several alternatives are available. These options can be used on their own in certain climates or as supplementary protection.

Common alternatives include:

  • Rain Chains: These are decorative chains that hang from the roof's edge, guiding rainwater to the ground.

  • Drip Edges: These metal strips are installed at the edge of the roof to direct water away from the fascia. While often used with gutters, they can be paired with a ground-level solution but are typically not sufficient on their own.

  • Rain Dispersal Systems: These systems work by breaking up the heavy sheet of water flowing off the roof, dispersing it over a wider area.

  • French Drains: This ground-level system uses a perforated pipe in a gravel-filled trench to collect and redirect water runoff away from the house.

  • Drip Paths: Placed directly below the roofline, these paths made of concrete, stone, or other materials prevent soil erosion and guide water away.

It's important to note that some alternatives like rain chains and dispersal systems may not be adequate in regions with heavy rainfall because they don't divert water away from the foundation as effectively as a full gutter system. Ground-based solutions like French drains can be very effective but are often more expensive and can affect your landscaping and curb appeal. Many experts recommend installing a full gutter system for maximum protection and using alternatives as supplementary measures.

Permits may be required for major repairs, structural work, or electrical and plumbing restoration after a flood. Check with your local building department to determine permit requirements and associated fees for your flooded basement cleanup project. Obtaining the correct permits helps ensure work is done safely and up to code.

Foundation repair uses methods such as underpinning, slab jacking, or application of hydraulic piers. Each technique is chosen based on structural needs, soil conditions, and damage extent, ensuring a stable and secure foundation.
