"David and Cody from John's Waterproofing went straight to work; they quickly found the problem, showed me the problem, discussed what would have to be done to fix the problem, fixed the problem, then thoroughly cleaned up. Very nice people to work with, from the schedulers through the technicians."

"I was please with the estimator, Boston's knowledge and willingness to walk me through the process and unfamiliar territory of basement waterproofing. He was very knowledgeable and answers so many questions, at the time of the walk through as well as in the days after when I had questions after receiving other bids and trying to compare them. In the end, it was just my low budget that kept me from going with Terra Firma. I thought their system was excellent, and would have worked well with my basement, but I had to opt for a less expensive design."

"From the first visit to my home from Sean for an estimate, to the crew that arrived to do the project I was impressed. Everyone was extremely professional. The crew arrived on time, the crew leader introduced me to the rest of the crew and explained how they would proceed with the project. They protected the work spaces with plastic from my garage to the crawl space opening in side my closet. They went to work and kept me informed about the progress. The whole crew worked very efficiently and got the project done in one day. They left work area spotless when they were done. I would highly recommend this company for any waterproofing project!!"

"Andrew and his Crew from Roseburg were wonderful. They were able to get into our crawl space and did an amazing job clearing it out, installing drainage, a layer of plastic and sump pump. They left the area so much cleaner than it was when they arrived and they explained everything to us clearly so we would know what to do. We recommend them highly and it was a pleasure to meet them."

"Aaron and his son were amazing! They got the job done in just 3 days! We had to have a completely new sewer line installed, about 100 feet from the house out to the street. ER Pipeline had the best priced bid out of 4 different plumbing services in Eugene that I got quotes from. They were much more affordable then any of the big name plumbing companies in town. Aaron and his son started the job within a week of providing me a bid. They dug the new trench in one day, laid the new pipe line the second day. The third day they had to have the city inspector come approve before backfilling the trench, Aaron took care of arranging the inspection and proper city permits. Once the inspector approved, they filled the trench by the end of the day. They did an excellent job in packing down the dirt after it was back filled, leaving a minimal amount of a hump in the yard. They also replaced all of the stone rock in an area of the yard. There was minimal concrete that needed to be replaced, only two sidewalk slabs. Aaron’s “concrete guy” came out and took care of the new sidewalk slabs. They were done perfectly! Better then they were before the work, before there was a lip in the sidewalk that neighbors have tripped on, and now there is no more lip! Overall, ER Pipeline Services did an amazing job and were extremely friendly. They even had their adorable “ditch dog” Marley who was on the work site every day watching over everything ;). I would highly recommend them if you’re looking at doing similar work."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Mold and mildew are the things in basements that actually cause the musty odors, but moisture is the underlying issue that causes mold and mildew growth. Addressing moisture and water problems and then removing materials that are moldy are some of the best ways to get rid of the musty odors. Preventive measures after that—like installing air fresheners and a dehumidifier—can help keep musty odors from returning.

You don’t always need to install a dehumidifier in your encapsulated crawl space, but it might be a good idea in certain instances. If you notice obvious signs of condensation, mold, or musty smells permeating from your crawl space, a dehumidifier can help. It’s ideal for homes in humid areas.

In a worst case scenario, structural damage like rust on metal beams, rotting wood, and swelling on doors and windows can signal moisture problems that would benefit from a dehumidifier.

The difficulty of adding a basement to an existing house can vary depending on the house’s location, the size of the basement, and the type and condition of the existing foundation. Adding a basement is a job best handled by the pros, so you’ll need to enlist professional help for this project.

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.

If you decide to fill the space around your home’s foundation with landscaping materials, it’s important to consider the aesthetic as well as technical factors like drainage and protection from pests and the elements. Materials such as gravel, rubber mulch, concrete, and brick masonry are all good options.
