"Basement Waterproofing Nationwide did excellent work in a timely and proffessional manner for a reasonable and appropriate fee. They said they would complete the work in 1-2 days and were done in one day. They were very careful and left things neater than they were before they came. We have used them before with great success and would use them again. So far, the problem we had, water in our basement, has not recurred, and our basement is bone dry. Tnank you Basement Waterproofing Nationwide."

"I was very pleased with Smith Waterproofing. Tom and Kristina did the work themselves. They were here when they said they would be. They explained what they would have to do to fix the problem and then they did it. They kept everything clean and neat. I appreciate the job they did."

"Dave with 2 other workers were prompt and efficient. They came when they said they would and finished everything in 2 days. Everything looks fantastic because they protected my personal space with a plastic shield and cleaned everything up. Dirt and rubble was hauled away and they even sprayed my walkways outside. They installed the basement system and connected all my outside downspouts. I would highly recommend Highlander to anyone who needs waterproofing because they went above and beyond to make sure I was happy."

"This is the second time we have hired Groundworks (formerly Bakers Waterproofing) to perform work at our house. The first project was in 2017 when we had the waterproofing system installed. We called Groundworks a few weeks ago to get an estimate on lifting our front sidewalk and stairs that have sunk a lot over the past year. The steps had sunk to the point that the railings were not connected to the house, making it very unsafe for anyone coming into the front of our home. Aaron Lenker & Corbin Gillichbover were very professional and knowledgeable when they arrived to assess our sidewalk and steps to lift them. They left our sidewalk and the surrounding area better than when they arrived. Our steps and sidewalk are now level, and the railings are securely attached to the house again. We are thrilled! I would highly recommend Groundworks if you need a basement waterproofing system or any concrete lifted."

"I hired David Sauder renovations to make some improvements to my mothers house (interior and exterior) prior to selling the property, and then followed up with home-inspection repairs during the sales process. Work consisted of replacing a bathroom vanity, kitchen sink and associated plumbing, repairing plumbing leaks to exterior faucets, building new walls in the basement bathroom, minor exterior repairs to vinyl siding, and installing GFCI outlets. In addition, he managed the 1/2 acre property with grounds keeping services (grass cutting, bush trimming and removal, and mulch spreading). ALL work was coordinated from over 300 miles away through my realtor. What was MOST impressive was Davids dependability. When he said he was going to be there - he was there. He was direct and honest about costs, timing and value. A very professional contractor!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

When hiring a basement waterproofing professional in Lancaster, prioritize contractors with proven experience handling local clay soils and historic fieldstone foundations. Confirm they carry liability insurance and offer written warranties on their work. Ask for references from recent Lancaster projects and verify their knowledge of local flood zones and seasonal water table changes. Avoid anyone who uses high-pressure sales tactics or cannot explain their waterproofing process in detail.

Helpful?

In Lancaster, basement waterproofing maintenance should include testing your sump pump monthly during rainy periods and inspecting backup power sources. Clean gutters and downspouts every spring and fall to prevent overflow near your foundation. Examine basement window wells for debris and check for efflorescence or damp spots on walls after heavy storms. For homes with French drains, flush them annually to avoid blockages from Lancaster’s clay-rich soil.

Helpful?

In Lancaster, recurring wet basement floors after storms, visible mold growth, or peeling paint on lower walls often signal the need for waterproofing. If you notice water stains following snowmelt or musty odors that persist, these are common signs of moisture intrusion. However, isolated damp spots near plumbing may indicate a pipe issue. A local expert can help identify whether waterproofing or another repair is needed.

Helpful?

When planning basement waterproofing in Lancaster, consider the region’s frequent freeze-thaw cycles, which can widen foundation cracks. Homes built near the Conestoga River or on older stone foundations may face higher groundwater pressure. Always check for underground utility lines before digging and review local building codes, as Lancaster’s regulations may affect drainage system installation and exterior excavation timing, especially during the area’s drier summer months.

Helpful?

In Lancaster, below-grade basement walls facing prevailing winds, wall-floor joints, and window wells are especially prone to water seepage. Pay close attention to areas where downspouts discharge near the foundation and any exterior stairwells leading to the basement. Older homes with fieldstone or brick foundations, as well as crawl spaces, often require extra vigilance for moisture and foundation repair needs over time.
