"Let me start by saying that I would ABSOLUTELY recommend Weather – Tite Waterproofing to anyone who has water in their basement. They were incredibly professional and did top notch work. I had been getting water in my basement on and off for years. After fixing the gutters and fixing the roof it was time to address the basement. I consulted with three different Angie’s List companies (all very highly rated). Each company had a slightly different price but more importantly a different approach to resolving the problem. I picked Weather – Tite because I was comfortable with the approach that they proposed, and the price was in line with the other quotes. The work took 2 days. Day 1 was spent digging the trenches around the interior of the basement. Day 2 was spent putting in the stones and piping and hooking it all up to the sump pump. As you can imagine, putting in a drainage system is messy work – you would have been none the wiser – my whole house was spotless (including the basement) – no dust anywhere. The work was so professional that I had them come back and put up the baseboard and sheet rock. I can happily say that since the work has been completed, we have had quite a few heavy rains, and my basement has stayed dry."

"Guys came in and worked. No lollygagging or long breaks or any of that just plowed through on a dirty two-day job and their work made me feel a heck of a lot better about the structure of our home. Did great work. The only complaint is that they did not repair a small basement window casing that they pried open to get materials to the basement. I am sure had I contacted them they would have come back and fixed it, but it was not anything nice to begin with and I was able to repair myself pretty easily so I never even brought it to their attention."

"Fausto and his team did an amazing job ripping out old fiberglass and installing new spray in. They also made a custom drywall cover for the exposed pipes. All done in 1.5 days. Less expensive than the comp. Would use again. Great to work with."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Water damage always poses a primary risk of mold and mildew, but growth is not guaranteed. The chances of mold developing depend on several factors, including the severity of the damage and how quickly the area is cleaned and dried. To prevent mold, you must act quickly—ideally within the first 24 hours. Clean up all water and thoroughly dry the affected area. If the damage is extensive, you were unable to address it immediately, or you suspect mold has already started to grow, it is best to assume it is present and hire a professional mold inspector or removal expert to assess the situation.

Rigid foam board insulation is one of the safest insulation materials for basement walls. The panels offer a moisture barrier to prevent mold and mildew build-up. At the same time, this material is also fire-resistant, so you don’t have to worry as much about a fire breaking out as you would with spray foam insulation. 

The best basement waterproofing method depends on the specific issue causing the water intrusion. For minor problems, simple solutions like installing a properly functioning gutter system to direct runoff away and grading the soil to slope away from your foundation can be effective.

If you have more significant water problems, the solution will need to be more robust:

  • For standing water on the basement floor, a floor drain or a sump pump system may be the best solution.

  • For water pooling around the foundation, installing an exterior French drain can intercept water before it reaches the basement walls.

Other effective waterproofing methods, which can be used depending on your home's specific needs, climate, and soil type, include sealing the interior walls, landscape alteration, installing interior drainage systems, and using a dehumidification system to control moisture levels.

In perfect conditions—meaning, no overexposure to the elements without roofing material on top of it—an ice and water shield can last for decades. In fact, many come with a limited lifetime warranty because they should last for a long time. If, however, the membrane is exposed to the elements during building or if there is a delay in installing the roofing material, it might only last up to 180 days if exposed to the elements. The key is to make it a layer of protection and then protect that layer by installing the roofing.

Anything having to do with the structure of your home, such as raising the ceiling, is usually the most expensive part of finishing a basement. Another project component that could be a surprisingly high expense is adding an exterior entrance. 

The cost of a walkout basement can be anywhere from $5,000 to $35,000.
