"First off, I'll admit that I was not certain the repair was as critical as it was; and, I thought the estimate was really high and not within our budget.... but, when the inspector patiently and carefully showed us the damage and explained everything to us, I felt we definitely needed to make the repairs. They installed wall anchors, drain trench and pump, and wall waterproofing. The team that came and performed the work were remarkable! These young guys...John Stepp, Alex Fernandez, and Ivan Goldston were on time, worked steadily through the entire day, finishing up late in the day. They welcomed me being a bit nosey and helped me understand what they were doing at each step of the way. I've met a lot of repair service persons in my day and I count these three and the inspector as some of the most professional, warm, knowledgeable, and conscientious workers ever. Hey AFS leadership, I hope you know what you've got in this crew!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Proper drainage prevents water damage, mold growth, and foundation settling, protecting your home’s structural integrity.

The best basement waterproofing method depends on the specific issue causing the water intrusion. For minor problems, simple solutions like installing a properly functioning gutter system to direct runoff away and grading the soil to slope away from your foundation can be effective.

If you have more significant water problems, the solution will need to be more robust:

  • For standing water on the basement floor, a floor drain or a sump pump system may be the best solution.

  • For water pooling around the foundation, installing an exterior French drain can intercept water before it reaches the basement walls.

Other effective waterproofing methods, which can be used depending on your home's specific needs, climate, and soil type, include sealing the interior walls, landscape alteration, installing interior drainage systems, and using a dehumidification system to control moisture levels.

Yes, basement insulation needs a vapor barrier due to its susceptibility to moisture seeping in from the outside of the house. You should install a moisture barrier before you install insulation or purchase insulation that comes prebuilt with a moisture barrier to avoid water damage in your insulation and costly mold and water remediation expenses. 

Whether to waterproof your basement from the interior or exterior depends on several factors, including your budget.

Exterior waterproofing is generally considered the superior method because it stops water at the source, preventing it from seeping into and damaging your basement walls. This approach offers the most protection, making it ideal if you use your basement for storage.

By contrast, interior waterproofing is often less expensive and requires less labor because the area is more accessible.

For maximum protection against water leakage and moisture, applying waterproofing measures to both the inside and outside is the best solution. However, if you must choose only one, stopping water from the outside is the most effective approach to preserve your foundation and prevent damage.

The most cost-effective foundation repair is using masonry patches and sealants to seal foundation cracks and offer some support to prevent further damage. These methods are used to fix minor foundation cracks quickly. However, they’re not suitable as a long-term solution, and they only offer minimal stability. On average, masonry patches and sealants cost $500, but a sealant like an epoxy crack injection can total over $2,000. If you’re handy and only looking for a temporary solution until you contact a local foundation repair contractor for a more permanent one, you can save hundreds by DIYing this repair.
