"I contracted with American Foundation & Basement Repairs, LLC for waterproofing services to include replacing the drywall once the installation was complete. The salesman listened to me, made all the changes that I requested, answered my questions, and did it all quickly, efficiently, and without pressure. The work crews were courteous, cleaned up after themselves, hauled away all the debris, and kept me well informed throughout the process. They called daily to let me know when they would arrive since the repair was not at my residence, giving me plenty of time to get there to let them in the house."

"Blalock waterproofing did a fantastic job in my basement. Cory came out, gave an estimate and completed the job of 60 ft of waterproofing in just 6 days. From estimate to completion in 6 days, amazing. He started on Monday and Wed. Afternoon, cleaned up and job down. He dealt with my stairs- they were in the way, and added some additional support to the 4x4s that had been rotted out from all the water at floor level. Final price was exactly what was estimated. Hire them!"

Basement Waterproofing FAQs, answered by experts

It is better to have a crawl space that is tailored to the outside temperature, your needs, and the season. For example, it is much better to have a vented space when it’s very hot outside and your AC bills are sky-high. Conversely, when the temperature drops and humidity rises, it is almost always better to have your vents shut and covered if possible.

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.

Yes, engineers assess soil load-bearing capacity and provide construction guidelines.

Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable.

Standard homeowners insurance policies may cover basement water damage or flooding, but only if it is caused by a sudden and accidental event that is a covered peril, such as a burst pipe or a failing appliance. Damage caused by natural flooding from extreme weather, groundwater seepage, or heavy rain is typically excluded and requires a separate flood insurance policy. Some insurers also offer an optional water backup endorsement for issues like sewer backups. Review your policy or speak with your agent to understand your specific coverage.
