"Terry inspected my foundation, but unlike the other inspectors, he inspected and measured inside my house as well as outside, spotting cracks that helped him diagnose the problems. He proposed a solution that involved placing pilings beneath the foundation in the back of the house. The work went extremely well. Daniel headed up the installation of the pilings, and after three days, I was able to open the sliding door in my basement for the first time in a year. Everything was cleaned up I am very pleased with the quality and price, and I strongly recommend VFS to everyone."

"The team from Tiger C Construction were professional and completed my French drain install quickly (they actually installed it on a holiday and didn’t charge me extra!). The job was completed just before a rain storm and the drain proved itself quickly. Hiring the Tiger C Construction will leave you happy with not only the work they complete for you but the workers as well."

"I have a very old house and the basement drain has clogged twice in the past two and a half years.
The first time the clog left two inches of water on the floor. Noah Ball came the same day I called and flushed the drainpipe.
He also gave me tips on how to try to keep the drain clear.
Two years later he had to come back for the same reason, although the damage wasn't as bad. This time it was determined that there were roots in the pipe; he cleared it and we have discussed what my next steps will be. At some point the line will have to be repaired or replaced, but prior to that he will do a TV scope to get to the specifics of the problem.
I was very impressed with Noah. He is professional but easy to talk to - and appears to be sincerely interested in doing the best job possible at a reasonable price. I wouldn't think of using another company for rooting. AND, in both cases, he came the same day I called. Now that's good customer service!

"We had astronomical winter heating bills in the first winter in our new (old) home. I hired Shane and his team to install a vapor barrier in my crawlspace, insulation in my basement and to replace my crawlspace doors which were deteriorated and lacked insulation. The quote process was thorough but quick. They scheduled the work quickly as well. On install, they literally unearthed a mountain of construction debris that had collected under the house for who knows how long. They completed the job in just a couple of days and the results were more than impressive. We also chose to replace our windows and the result of both jobs brought our energy bill down by more than 50%. All-in-all we were thrilled with the outcome of the work with Managed Services Group and would highly recommend them to others. Priced fairly and flexible on scope. These guys just get it."

"Insulating a crawl space is incredibly expensive (especially for a space that hardly anybody ever sees or goes into), but they did a good job and it has helped in keeping the pipes warmer in winter and reducing damp feeling inside the house."

"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."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

The best basement waterproofing method depends on the specific issue causing the water intrusion. For minor problems, simple solutions like installing a properly functioning gutter system to direct runoff away and grading the soil to slope away from your foundation can be effective.

If you have more significant water problems, the solution will need to be more robust:

  • For standing water on the basement floor, a floor drain or a sump pump system may be the best solution.

  • For water pooling around the foundation, installing an exterior French drain can intercept water before it reaches the basement walls.

Other effective waterproofing methods, which can be used depending on your home's specific needs, climate, and soil type, include sealing the interior walls, landscape alteration, installing interior drainage systems, and using a dehumidification system to control moisture levels.

Flooded basement cleanup can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks, depending on the extent of water damage, the type of water involved, and the need for repairs or mold remediation. Severe cases with structural damage or extensive mold may require longer timelines. Quick action and professional help can speed up the process and reduce overall damage.

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.

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.

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.
