"Dave from Clifton Contracting/Exterior Waterproofing came out to diagnose a leak in our basement. He came out within 24 hours and quickly identified what was causing the problem (gutters). Although this is a job too small for Clifton Contracting/Exterior Waterproofing, I would not hesitate to contact them down the road if I ever had an issue they would be better suited for. Thanks!"

"I helped my daughter with this crawlspace encapsulation work on her house. I solicited 3 quotes and it was an easy choice to go with Basement Waterproofing Nationwide. From the initial inspection and quote with Tim, the financing and finally the work with Will and his crew, everything went well. They completed the job to my expectations, answered all my questions and kept me informed all along the way. They actually finished the job in 3 days instead of 4. I highly recommend giving them a chance."

"We are the 2nd owners of a 15 year old home. Don't know why the original owner/builder did not put a sump pump in the basement, as it would have been a cheaper option in the end. If you are building a new home with a basement, put a sump pump in, don't scrimp on what is a very valuable insurance policy. After looking at a handful of other companies to retrofit a sump pump in our cellar, we picked All Aspects Waterproofing, LLC. They did a great job! Very high quality work, and outstanding service. They did a great job! We enthusiastically recommend All Aspects Waterproofing to any homeowner!"

"Alex from Lux, gave me very helpful advice and he concluded that his company’s services were not warented. Trustworthy, honest advice, and he answered all my questions thoroughly with visual and verbal explaination. Lux is a company I would recommend and use in the future. In my personal opinion, Alex saved me $10-30k in waterproofing. He said that I did not have a moisture issue in my basement and he gave me 3 things I could do to make my basement environment safe and sound for the future. A different contractor came in and gave me a free estimate to put a sump pump in for $7k and then I’d need to finish my basement for an estimate of $20k. Alex from Lux, said I had a dry foundation and that my mold on my vinyl was likely a cause from a leak years ago from my washer or my dishwasher a level above. I truly felt that Alex was truthful, helpful and Honest. Go with Lux if you seek an honest opinion and company."

"Exceeded my expectation with waterproofing my entire basement + window wells. These guys are the real deal! I worked with Rob and I was educated and all my concerns were addressed. They do it right by you, the contract missed a window well and they were able to addressed that without having to go through a whole new quote/contract. Helped move some furniture around and left the place clean."

"They did an excellent job of waterproofing our foundation, burying downspouts, and replacing a patio to guarantee drainage away from the house. Most of our interaction was with the crew foreman. He spoke good English, showed attention to detail, and did a careful, professional job even when the weather got so hot we found ourselves urging the crew to take more breaks. They were not the cheapest bid, but worth it for the skilled workmanship. This is the second project we have hired them to do, and I would recommend them for any work where drainage is important."

"DB's has emergency service so, when the water line to my refrigerator was leaking late at night, they came out right away and replaced the line as well as the decrepit faucet that feeds it in the wall. The water line replacement moved pipes to a route under the house with no disruption to the walls. A small area about 18 inches square in the floor of the basement utility room was re-cemented, so there is no evidence of the replacement and they re-seeded the area in the front lawn that had to be dug up. This company has never failed me. They stand behind their estimates and never charge more. I highly recommend them."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Arlington’s humid climate, frequent storms, and dense clay soil increase the risk of basement moisture problems. Heavy spring and summer rains may delay exterior waterproofing work, while freeze-thaw cycles can stress foundation walls. The high water table means interior drainage systems and sump pumps are often necessary. Scheduling installations in late fall or early spring helps avoid the wettest conditions and ensures better results.

Helpful?

In Arlington, be cautious of quotes that don’t address the area’s high water table or fail to specify solutions for clay-heavy soils. Watch for vague proposals lacking details about sump pump installation, drainage systems, or vapor barriers. Avoid contractors who skip on-site evaluations, rush you to sign, or can’t provide local project photos. Always request proof of insurance and a clear breakdown of recommended waterproofing methods.

Helpful?

Before starting basement waterproofing in Arlington, verify if your project requires a permit and review any HOA guidelines. Arrange for underground utility marking to prevent accidental damage. Evaluate your property’s grading and drainage, as Arlington’s clay soils can complicate water flow. Plan your project outside of peak rainy periods, check local noise restrictions, and take photos of your basement’s current condition to document any pre-existing issues.

Helpful?

Homes in Arlington with visible water intrusion, musty smells, or efflorescence on basement walls are strong candidates for waterproofing. Properties near streams, in low-lying neighborhoods, or with poor surface drainage are at higher risk. If your basement houses essential equipment or has experienced flooding during heavy rains, targeted solutions like interior drainage channels or exterior waterproof membranes can provide lasting protection. Professional evaluation is recommended for persistent moisture issues.

Helpful?

In Arlington, effective basement waterproofing maintenance includes flushing French drains to prevent clay buildup, testing sump pumps before heavy rain, and inspecting foundation walls for new cracks after winter. Maintain basement humidity with a dehumidifier, especially during muggy summers, and clear gutters and downspouts regularly. Check for signs of efflorescence or mold, and inspect waterproof coatings annually to ensure continued protection.
