"The basement king was a pleasure to work with. His knowledge is unmatched in the Texas area for sure. I received multiple quotes and talked to multiple companies and he was the best. He's passionate about his work and the manner in which it's done. If he says something, it happens. An added benefit was their cleanliness. Usually a job site of this size and complexity is a mess, but not with the basement kings. 10/10!"

"I am an older widowed woman and had a slab leak and needed a new water heater and had a couple of other plumbing issues. They came 80 miles, checked out the problems, gave me a bid on the entire job with a Plan A and Plan B. With a signed contract in hand, they came back the next day and did the job in a totally professional manner. They were polite and I felt very comfortable with them in my home for several hours. I also know that the price was half of what I was quoted from other plumbing companies! I highly recommend these guys! Thank you, Derek, Cole and Troy."

"Home advisor doesn’t have the actual job they did available on the drop down menu, which seems silly. ARMS Plumbing repaired our sewer line under concrete and did a great job at half the price as another local mega-plumber with fancy vinyl-wrapped vans. The crew were professional and they went above and beyond in their service and work. These guys are my go-to plumbers now, I’m not calling anyone else."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

The purpose of crawl space encapsulation is to prevent mold by blocking moisture and reducing humidity. If the vapor barrier is properly installed, it significantly reduces the chance of mold developing within the crawl space. However, mold can sometimes grow behind the encapsulation material, but it will be sealed away from the main area. Additionally, moisture can still condense inside the encapsulated space, so if you notice excess humidity, installing a dehumidifier is recommended to prevent mold and mildew growth.

Underfloor insulation alone will not cause moisture and mold, but improper installation can. Although the purpose is to seal any drafts, your subfloor still needs ventilation. If you seal the area too tightly and prevent all airflow, this can cause moisture to get trapped. This moisture eventually leads to mold and—if your floors are wood—rotting.

Yes, many repair services include reapplying waterproofing and UV-resistant coatings.

Venting the crawl space can be a good alternative to encapsulation if you live in a dry climate and the moisture problem isn’t severe. You could also try a dehumidifier or install a vapor barrier on the floor, leaving the walls exposed. A new drainage system may eliminate the moisture problem if it is not caused by humidity.

In most cases, a crawl space will not dry out on its own unless the moisture comes from an uncommon flood and isn’t expected to be a recurring issue. For most homeowners, moisture problems in the crawl space will only continue to get worse over time, so addressing the underlying problem with gutter systems or a foundation drainage system and setting up a preventative solution like a dehumidifier is necessary.
