"Some of the big companies charge an exorbitant amount to waterproof your basement. Bracken was very fair and reasonable with their price, as one company wanted 4x more for the same work. Dan was very professional and communicated well throughout the project. Bracken completed the job in the quoted time frame and the work was nicely done. Our basement is now completely waterproof with an interior French drain along the perimeter, carbon fiber straps to reinforce the wall that is bowing, and the downspouts to our gutters rerouted to a dry well. We are very happy with the value, professionalism, and quality of work that Bracken provided. Our family highly and enthusiastically recommends Bracken Waterproofing!"

"This project was the complete remodel of a split entry, three-bedroom house (in various states of disrepair). I was given a thorough estimate, and we reviewed the work scope in great detail. Even when confronted with some unexpected issues (items that were not obvious until we begin the demo) midstream, they gave me complete Information so that I could make an informed decision on how to proceed. Their work is excellent, they are reliable and easy to communicate with, they are proud of what they do and want you to be happy with the results. My project included general construction, electrical, plumbing, and mechanical assessment. I highly recommend Powerhouse and will continue to use them for my general contracting needs. As I recently told them, **you are my guys from now on!** Thank you, Clayton, JD, and Chris for a job well done!"

"Excellent service and excellent job! My husband and I just bought a house in Altoona and had 2 inches of rain a week later. Water came in the basement along a side wall, where the wall meets the floor. We called Dan for an estimate, along with 2 others. Dan scheduled an appt for an estimate a day later. His estimate was half the cost of the other 2 estimates and he fit us in his schedule to have the work completed the following Tuesday, starting at 6am. His crew was at the house at 5:50am on Tuesday, set up an impressive dust collection system, took 50 minutes to jackhammer out the floor, carry out the out concrete, and drill the holes in about 70ft! They then put in the gravel and pipe, and poured concrete to make it look like new. They were impressive and done in a few hour! We paid Dan with our Visa once the job was finished, so got cash back. Can't say enough good things about them!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Combining basement waterproofing with foundation repair, electrical upgrades, or insulation installation can be efficient in Johnstown, especially given the area’s freeze-thaw cycles and cold winters. Coordinating these projects can minimize disruption and ensure your drainage system is integrated properly. Wait to finish basement spaces or undertake major plumbing until waterproofing has been tested through at least one wet season.

Helpful?

Homeowners in Johnstown typically need to decide on the type of waterproofing system—interior, exterior, or a combination—based on the area’s frequent flooding and clay-heavy soil. You’ll also choose sump pump features, determine the best drainage system location, and decide what items to clear from the basement. Selecting a warranty and ongoing maintenance plan is especially important given Johnstown’s history of water issues.

Helpful?

Many Johnstown homeowners underestimate how clay soil and hillside lots complicate drainage system design. Seasonal timing is crucial—spring thaw and heavy summer rains can delay work or reveal hidden issues. Be aware of possible utility line challenges in older homes, the need for careful sump pump discharge planning, and the likelihood of addressing mold due to Johnstown’s persistent humidity.

Helpful?

Basement waterproofing in Johnstown is designed to combat chronic water intrusion caused by river valley geography, heavy rainfall, and clay soils. It relieves hydrostatic pressure, prevents foundation damage, and reduces humidity and mold risks. This work is essential for preserving older homes, maintaining property value, and ensuring a healthy living environment in a community known for frequent flooding.

Helpful?

When hiring a basement waterproofing professional in Johnstown, prioritize those with proven experience handling local flooding and soil conditions. Request references from nearby neighborhoods, confirm their knowledge of local permitting for drainage system work, and ask if they offer emergency services. It’s also wise to choose pros who use locally sourced materials and understand Johnstown’s unique weather patterns.
