"Foundation builders installed the egress window on my basement not only they did a great job but at a very nice price. He can be a bit higher than the other companies but you really get what you pay for. If you want a job done well call them. The weather was not great but they worked through it regardless and that showed dedication. What I love the most about the company is that you don’t have to deal with big corporate companies where you get bounce from one department to the next. Mike the owner is very friendly very accessible he always answers all questions. The job was done in a week and they did an excellent job and they cleaned up the area leaving no mess, it rained the same day not one leakage. I also passed the inspection so I’m very happy with the job. I couldn’t ask for anything better. Thanks foundation builders"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

It depends on what caused your basement flooding, the extent of the problem, and the risk of the flood continuing. If your flood is coming from a septic system or sewer line, breathing in the sewer gasses can be dangerous, so you should vacate. If the flood occurs from an ongoing natural disaster, relocating to a safe area might be wise. If you just have a plumbing leak or rainwater coming in, you can likely stay in the house if you don’t have electrical lines down there, but make sure you call in professionals to fix the issue immediately.

Pooling or standing water in your basement should be cause for alarm and action. This indicates that there is a leak or a drainage issue, and until you repair the root of the problem, the situation will only happen again or grow in severity. It’s important to deal with water damage as soon as it occurs.

Sandbags are the most common and efficient way to create a flood barrier at home. Some local authorities pass them around to homes before the risk of a flood. Otherwise, you can use flood-proof house materials, like burlap or woven plastic bags, to make sandbags and fill them with sand or cat litter. Make sure that when you stack them, they’re tightly laid on top of each other, creating the effect of a firm wall against accumulating water.

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.

Yes, cleaning a crawl space is worth it. You might think you can ignore the area since it’s out of sight, but doing so can lead to pest infestations, mold, and other problems. Crawl space cleaning costs between $0.50 and $4 per square foot, but the cost to deal with pests or mold would be much higher.
