"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."

"Excellent work performed. When I had a question I was always called back within an appropriate time. Everyone was knowledgeable and experienced. Installers left the area clean after work was done. The only negative was that it took longer than expected to start phase 2 of the work finished. But it was done in a day, once it was started."

"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

Preventing future basement flooding often involves installing sump pumps, improving drainage, sealing foundation cracks, and maintaining gutters. Costs vary, but preventive measures can range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars, depending on the solutions chosen. Investing in prevention can save you money on future flooded basement cleanup costs and repairs.

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.

The primary downside to crawl space encapsulation is the high cost, which can be several thousand dollars. Additionally, the process can make future repairs more complicated by limiting access to plumbing and electrical wiring within the crawl space. Encapsulation also requires sealing off any vents, which can be a disadvantage for home designs that benefit from the airflow they provide. It's recommended to consult with a crawl space contractor to determine if the benefits outweigh these potential drawbacks for your specific home.

French drains and yard grading systems are two highly effective ways to fix standing water around the foundation. Since the French drain uses a perforated pipe covered by gravel, you won’t have to worry about water taking the soil away from your foundation. Meanwhile, yard grading levels out the ground to prevent water from gathering around your foundation.

Encapsulation can take the place of crawl space vents since it protects the area from moisture and air all year round. Determining whether you should open or close crawl space vents can be complicated since it often depends on the weather and humidity. Skip this step by investing in crawl space encapsulation whenever possible.
