"I was concerned about moisture in my basement and decided to utilized Managed Service Group for a second opinion. Scott, the contractor, was upfront, honest, and told me what the problem was. He did not come out with 10 plus men to rip out my basement like JES Foundation Company wanted to do. Thank you Scott for saving me thousands of dollars. I will definitely use and recommend this company to others."

"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"

"The repair to the shutoff valve was straight forward and was done quickly and professionally.  The bathtub repair was more involved beacuse they had to cut into the plywood floor from the basement access panel and then remove the drainage pipe which was cracked. They made the repair and there have been no further problems. Techniction was friendly, explained what needed to be done and went over the pricing before starting work. They have standard charges for each type of service which appear a little on high side but the price is the price no matter what it takes so if it is very quick you may feel overpriced but if they take a lot longer you don't pay more. 
I previously had purchased their Diamond Service which insured same day response and a discount on services which was applied in this case.  They also do annual free inspections as part of this service.
Overall a very positive experience

"Brendan and his team inspected our home before we purchased it and determined there were moisture issues in the crawlspace. After we moved in, he promptly got us on his schedule, and completed the encapsulation of our crawlspace. The quality of the work is top notch and Brendan is professional and cares about his customers. I highly recommend Foundation Works if you need work done to your basement or crawlspace!"

"The technician who came to do the tune-up did all that was needed to do.
However, I noticed that he did not use the usual protective shoe covering that I always see other technicians use, and he went about my house to get water for the furnace from the kitchen sink, and to the area where I have the thermostat without asking for permission from me (after the first time he asked me where the thermostat was).  I was very particular about this and I want to be asked what he needed and what he was doing.  I wanted to know why he would suddenly go upstairs while I was downstairs in the basement with him where the furnace was.  That made me uneasy.
Also, when I asked him what he was doing, when I saw him pouring water into the furnace, I found his response a little curt, when I know I have the right to know what the technician would be doing, after all, this is my property.  This has been my good experience with the other technicians I have hired to work on different things at my house.  This technician did not seem to want to bother to explain to me what he was doing or even why he was going about my house, shoes and all.
Even right when he came in, and I told him that I had the pilot light turned off, because that was the recommendation of the previous technician who serviced my furnace, he immediately told me that it would have damaged something in the furnace and that this might cost me more for him to do anything with it, and that I would not even save much on doing that.  I must say, I saved a lot of money during the summer just by doing this, but we went into an unnecessary discussion about that savings.  I actually had to do my own research later to find out if what he was saying might be true, but could not find any.  In fact, I saw a number of suggestions to actually turn it off during the summer for gas cost savings.
In fairness, he did do the tune-up, opened up and cleaned the furnace, took a little while to get the pilot light turned on, but managed to do it.  He made some recommendations for the heating system.

Basement Waterproofing FAQs, answered by experts

Unfortunately, mold can grow pretty much anywhere, on any kind of surface. However, you’re most likely to see it in damp areas like basements or bathrooms, as well as anywhere there has been a water leak. Consult a local mold specialist to determine if certain areas of your home are prone to mold based on climate and other factors.

When considering finishing your basement, take into account a few pros and cons:

Pros

  • Can increase the value of your home

  • Separate space from the rest of the house 

  • Customize and personalize the basement to suit your needs and style

  • Increase the amount of living space in your home

Cons

  • May not regain enough value to cover the cost of finishing

  • Lack of natural light if it’s below ground level

  • Moisture or flooding can cause costly damage

  • Installing plumbing and electrical can be messy and costly

You should always hire a structural engineer or a professional and licensed foundation repair company for crawl space repair. These professionals will often be able to treat the symptoms of the issue as well as the underlying problem so that you don’t have ongoing damage. They’ll also often take preventative measures to stop the issue from recurring in the future.

Proper basement ventilation is very effective at reducing humidity. Without enough ventilation, your basement is prone to mold and moisture damage. Your basement should have as much natural ventilation via windows and doors as possible, and if your budget allows, you should also consider installing an ERV system to keep basement humidity levels at bay.

Walkout basements cost more than other kinds of basements, and can also increase your risk of leaks as well as a loss of insulation, leading to higher heating and cooling costs. Improperly installed walkout basements may lead to structural issues with your foundation, so ensure you’re working with a contractor who has extensive experience with this kind of basement.
