"I had Lux come out to do foundation work on our home, as well as exterior waterproofing. It was a large job, and as a first-time homeowner, I didn’t know what to expect. Miguel and his team were efficient and did a great job. They communicated very well, which I really appreciated, and the job was completed in about a week. They ran into a small snag during the work, but were able to locate the issue and fix it quickly. They were very flexible and understanding, even after the job when I had a few follow-up questions. I would definitely use them again!"

"They rep advised a lot to waterproof the crawlspace at a very large amount$$$$$ And made it sound as if the foundation was crumbling and in disrepair I had a contractor friend also look and came up with a better priced solution and would alleviate the water from even entering the crawlspace or walkout basement area That way I would not need the overkill of waterproofing the crawl but keeping the water from entering the area in the first place"

"Nearly three years ago, I asked JES to install a waterproofing system around my basement (in 2016). After they did this, there was no further flooding or leaking of ground water into my basement. In addition, the dehumidifier makes the whole house smell fresh."

"One of the hardest workers. He is very honest, and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend. He saved us thousands from what another company wanted to charge for unnecessary work. Going on 4years since he finished his waterproofing and mold removal,we have had record rains and no leaks and no mold. Only dry basement on the block."

"Sadly our initial review has to be amended to FAIR due to the fact that our basement was not completely waterproofed by Ameri Dry. After explaining to our Ameri Dry representative that our basement was added after the home was built and several original outside walls were now "inside" walls, but we were told that these areas of our basement did not need to be waterproofed. We had 2 other written estimates and each estimate was for the entire perimeter of the basement. We asked the Ameri Dry representative several more times about waterproofing the remaining sections of basement and again and again we were told not to worry about having water in our basement ever again....

Unfortunately, we had water in our basement in the areas that were not waterproofed due to the fact that we trusted the expert company, Ameri Dry to come back to our home and complete the job how it should have been done in the first place and at no further charge to us. Why no charge to us - 1. We hired an expert company. 2. We asked more than several times about waterproofing the original walls. Ameri Dry is the expert, that's why they were hired.

After several calls back & forth as well as a home visit by an Ameri Dry representative, I was told by JC that for under $700.00 (I cannot remember the $600 odd dollar amount) Ameri Dry will come fix the basement problem which is about 8 feet of space that should be waterproofed to tie into the sump pump. I told JC that we should not have to pay additional money to fix a problem that should never occurred. After going back and forth on the phone with the issue at hand not resolved to my satisfaction, the conversation ended.

We did get 3 estimates, Ameri Dry was the most expensive (Ameri Dry did match B Dry's price) and choose Ameri Dry for the great initial communication. Our other 2 estimates (which were both less expensive) were for the entire perimeter of the basement.

In hindsight more expensive isn't better and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND B DRY FOR YOUR HOME WATERPROOFING NEEDS.

The Ameri Dry management was rated "C" but the employees are an "A" for their Quality, Responsiveness, Punctuality & Professionalism!"

"This review is for Master Services, Crawl Space and Foundation Repair in Knoxville, TN. phone # 8653453030 , [*** Link removed ***] . We had the pleasure of meeting Nick (Sales Inspector) and Brandon, Brandon, and Jacob (Installers). We hired Master Services on 2/16/21 (work done on 2/22/21) to install a WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system in our home in Greeneville, TN. Nick is a terrific salesman. He is professional and does not push any unnecessary work. Brandon, Brandon and Jacob (I believe Jacob was our installers name - sorry if not), did such a tremendous job. They worked quickly, efficiently, and made sure to keep our home free of mess. Overall we are very happy we hired Master Services and recommend them to anyone needing foundation repair."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Basements with persistent moisture problems or flooding shouldn’t be finished until the moisture issues have been fixed. In addition, if your foundation is cracked, you have unmitigated radon levels, or you have asbestos or lead pipes, remediate the underlying problem before finishing your basement. Turning a basement into living space before fixing these issues can lead to serious health risks or structural damage. 

Signs include persistent dampness, mold or mildew presence, musty odors, and visible water stains. If any of these occur, it is advisable to contact a professional for an inspection.

A crawl space encapsulation isn’t always necessary, but it’s a wise choice, especially if you live in an area that sees a lot of precipitation. Sealing a crawl space not only reduces damage caused by moisture, mold, and pests, but it also increases your home’s value. It can also save you money by reducing energy bills and avoiding costly repairs for structural or foundation damage.

Yes, if your crawl space is prone to humidity, a dehumidifier can help keep it dry. For use in a crawl space, you’ll need a high-capacity and high-efficiency dehumidifier with built-in air filtration. It’s also wise to purchase one with a self-draining feature. Otherwise, you’ll need to climb into the crawl space to empty the dehumidifier.

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.
