"The initial work seemed OK, but it quickly became clear that there was still water leaking through the basement walls. After several phone calls, an employee returned to inspect the walls and agreed that the exterior work needed to be redone. I pointed out that plastic pipes had been left exposed in my yard, without drainage to the street. He agreed that this wasn't acceptable. I called multiple times to set up repairs. My calls were not returned. I obtained the number of Joey, the production manager, spoke with him after several attempts, and sent him detailed texts and photos. No return visit materialized. Over the course of the next several months, I called the company multiple times. They actually visited my home a total of 9 more times, but they showed up without a crew, with one guy and a shovel, or saying they didn't have the equipment for the job. Finally a single employee with a shovel appeared, unscheduled, buried the pipes, and said he corrected the plumbing from the sump pump. Unfortunately, he didn't connect the pipes, and the pop up is 8 feet from my porch. Now a fountain erupts from the drain along side the house, and gallons of water discharge along the basement wall, as well as from the pop up. The soil along the foundation has eroded, and after a rain there is standing water for days in front of my porch. This brand new problem has lead to the interior walls originally water damaged, to become wet again, and a wall that was NEVER even damp before is now soaked, and the dry lock paint has bubbled up. Recently a manager came to look at the situation, and said I would be notified of when the repairs would take place. A couple of weeks later, I called, and managed to get the work scheduled. A crew is to come out June 5th. I however, have ABSOLUTELY NO CONFIDENCE THAT THE WORK WILL BE PROPERLY COMPLETED AND DAMAGE THAT THE COMPANY HAS CAUSED WILL BE REPAIRED. After 18 months of excused, shoddy workmanship, untrained employees that have made matters worse, and now new damage, I am beyond frustrated and angry."

"Absolute WORST experience I’ve ever had with a company! They are extremely predatory and convinced my 63 year old mother that she had to sign the contract THAT DAY, and she didn’t even understand what she was signing! The first day they were scheduled to do the job, they showed up hours late, and said they “weren’t the right crew to do the job”. We then had to wait a couple weeks for a different crew to come, and when they came they said they weren’t the right crew to do the job either!! 2 weeks later, ANOTHER crew came and said THE SAME EXACT THING!!! So after 3 times of getting the runaround, I was completely FED UP with this horrible company and decided to cancel the contract. They FINALLY did let me cancel, but are demanding we still pay $600! After all they put us through over 3+ months, they had the nerve to charge us $600 for an outlet! PLEASE AVOID THEM AT ALL COSTS! All they care about is dollar signs, not about the QUALITY of their work or customer service."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

For basement waterproofing in Columbus, choose elastomeric coatings that withstand freeze-thaw cycles, high-quality vapor barriers for moisture control, and dimpled drainage boards for effective water diversion. Silicate-based sealers work well on concrete block foundations, while robust sump pumps and backup systems are essential for local rainfall. Opt for materials that resist mold and accommodate clay soil movement common in the area.

Helpful?

Before starting basement waterproofing in Columbus, inspect your foundation for visible cracks and test soil drainage around your home. Secure all required permits and arrange for early inspections to prevent project interruptions. Schedule work outside the wettest months to minimize weather delays. If your home is older, check for hazardous materials and gather multiple quotes from contractors experienced with Columbus’s unique soil conditions.

Helpful?

In Columbus, ongoing basement waterproofing maintenance includes testing your sump pump monthly, inspecting foundation drainage pipes, and monitoring humidity levels. Clean gutters and downspouts each spring and fall to direct water away from your foundation. Annually, have a professional check for new cracks or moisture intrusion, especially after heavy storms, and insulate exterior discharge lines before winter to prevent freezing.

Helpful?

In Columbus, unexpected costs during basement waterproofing often arise from discovering foundation cracks, the need to reroute old utility lines, or addressing extensive mold due to high humidity. Additional expenses may include repairing landscaping after exterior work, upgrading drainage systems, or reinforcing basement walls if clay soil movement is detected. Delays from seasonal weather can also lead to extra labor or material charges.

Helpful?

In Columbus, most basement waterproofing projects take between 1–3 days for minor interior repairs, while exterior solutions involving excavation or foundation drainage typically require 3–7 days. If your project combines multiple methods or addresses significant moisture control issues, expect the process to last up to two weeks, especially during wet or cold weather when drying and curing times may be extended.
