"Hello, we recently got an evaluation. Dylan was great and knowledgeable. He even found a diagnosis underneath our house about water running that we weren’t aware. He, with his awesome customer service, made us feel comfortable and confident on having him checking around our place to get our estimate done. Thanks s much Dylan and Mount Valley Foundation."

"We were replacing old Gutters that overflowed every time it rained. I got three bids for the job. Gutter Glove wasn’t the cheapest but based on our conversation, I felt it would be the best solution. The covers are by far the best I’ve seen. That will save me a lot of climbing on the roof. Troy arrived right on time, did exactly what he said he would, cleaned up after himself...no issues at all. We had a day of heavy rain later in the week and the gutters worked perfectly. They also look great. I would definitely hire Troy again."

"After a year of an absolute mess in my backyard due to pool installers not completing the work and refusing to come back we reached out JHS for help. They were very responsive, gave us a quote same day, and the work was completed a few days later. I can finally use my backyard and enjoy the pool that we spent thousands having put in. More projects to come and JHS will be the team I call for all of it. Exceptional customer service and attention to detail."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Since basements are prone to water and moisture issues and the resulting problems can be expensive to repair and potentially damaging to your home, basement waterproofing is almost always worthwhile. Even for homes that haven’t experienced water infiltration, waterproofing the basement is insurance against facing expensive repair bills in the future. All basements will leak at some point, so fixing drainage issues and taking steps to prevent moisture and water infiltration is wise.

Yes, it is possible to over-dehumidify a house by removing too much moisture from the air. This can create an overly dry environment that negatively affects those with respiratory or skin issues, and may cause your skin, hair, and sinuses to feel dry. However, this is unlikely to happen with most modern dehumidifiers, as they are equipped with moisture sensors and adjustable settings. These features allow the unit to pause automatically when the desired humidity level is reached, preventing the air from becoming uncomfortably dry. In contrast, older or more basic dehumidifiers left running for too long could potentially over-dry the air. To avoid this, aim for a balance between removing excess moisture and maintaining a comfortable environment. You can often monitor your home's humidity levels using a modern thermostat for guidance.

Generally, moisture barrier padding costs $0.75 to $1.50 per square foot, varying by brand and mix. That’s a lot more than standard padding, which runs $0.25 to $0.90 per square foot. The price difference between these two options might seem steep, but think of it as insurance against future carpet replacement costs and subfloor damage. If you have pets or kids, that extra investment in high-risk areas like your living room often pays off.

Preventing future basement flooding often involves installing sump pumps, improving drainage, sealing foundation cracks, and maintaining gutters. Costs vary, but preventive measures can range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars, depending on the solutions chosen. Investing in prevention can save you money on future flooded basement cleanup costs and repairs.

Yes, these services often increase home value by preventing moisture-related issues and enhancing the usable space in basements or crawlspaces.
