"Corey and David of John's Waterproofing Company took our project and had a commercial grade gas water heater installed and running in place of our old one the same day they received our call for service. Thank you John's Waterproofing."
"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."

"John Bullard directed an expert crew when my windows were installed. The installation could not have gone any better. They took a barely usable basement space and added windows which made for a well-lit, comfortable, workroom. There were no issues or problems. I barely noticed they were in the house and suddenly 14 windows had been professionally installed and the old ones removed."

Customize and personalize the basement to suit your needs and style

Yes, slab leaks are fairly common, especially in older homes and places that are prone to earthquakes which can move home foundations.
A sump pump can remove excess moisture from under a house if standing water is present. Other ways to protect your crawl space from moisture include installing a vapor barrier, using a dehumidifier, installing insulation, and using a fan to dry the space. Finally, keeping your gutters clear of debris and positioning your downspouts away from the home’s foundation can prevent moisture from getting into the crawl space in the first place.
In most cases, yes, because the large majority of basements leak or will have moisture issues at some point, and waterproofing methods can mitigate that risk or eliminate it entirely. Plus, water and moisture issues can be quite problematic, as they can lead to mold growth, rotting of building materials, structural damage, poor indoor air quality, increased electric bills, and other problems.
