Best basement waterproofing pros near Mount Vernon, VA

"Job was promised to be less than two days. The crew arrived at the time agreed on and was thorough, covered walls not affected by the work and were finished by the end of the morning. I will recommend AA Action to anyone in need to basement waterproofing, crawl space improvements and related items."

"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!"

"Basement Waterproofing Nationwide did excellent work in a timely and proffessional manner for a reasonable and appropriate fee. They said they would complete the work in 1-2 days and were done in one day. They were very careful and left things neater than they were before they came. We have used them before with great success and would use them again. So far, the problem we had, water in our basement, has not recurred, and our basement is bone dry. Tnank you Basement Waterproofing Nationwide."

"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!"

"I couldn't be happier with the job LUX Foundation Solutions did to resolve my basement flooding issue. I requested a list of basement repair professional on Home Advisor and LUX Foundation Repair was the first of three to respond to the request. I scheduled an appointment for LUX to give me a quote on what it would take to resolve my basement flooding. Keagan arrived at the scheduled time and I described the flooding issue. It would require replacing the basement stairwell drain, sump pump and connecting pipe. We also discussed putting french drain and a larger pad at the top of the stairs to close a gap between the foundation and stairs that allowed water to channel into the stairwell. Keagan was upfront about how and when the job would be scheduled. I was contacted when the job was initially scheduled and kept informed on any changes as the start date. Adam and Ace arrived the date specified and went right to work. They were professional, knowledgeable and answered all questions I had. They were a pleasure to work with. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a foundation repair professional."

"I could not recommend DES enough! If you have any kids related to keeping your house, safe from water, you must talk to Mark Lane. We had four contractors assess and recommend solutions. All of them were more expensive and none gave us the confidence he did. The work was done under the time estimated and for the exact amount of the quote. Mark came three times to check on progress, and even gave us some groundcover to plant for holding the new soil in place. We recommended our neighbor have DES repair his drainage and water intrusion issue and he was extremely satisfied as well!"

"Jaub (not sure of spelling) Miller and his crew members were the ones to waterproof my basement wall where water was leaking. They did a super job - very friendly and answered all my questions. I would recommend JES and this team! Good work, guys!!"

"Lux foundation repair did a wonderful job at my home. I have 4 pipes coming into my home that had deteriorating seals around the pipe. The seals had deteriorated to the point that I had a large plastic box under the pipes so that after every rain I would collect the water that otherwise would have destroyed our finished basement. After small storms, I would collect a couple gallons, after very large storms, I would collect over 8 gallons of water in the box. I spoke to one contractor who suggested excavating the outside of the home. No small task since the pipes enter about 6’ below grade and it would have involved removing several established plants. I was surprised with the estimator from Lux informed me that they could solve the problem from inside the home. I was surprised that the estimator was very confident that he could not only fix the problem, but guarantee that it would fix the problem. The work team arrived on time, quickly did their work and left. When the next storm arrived, I checked the box….no water at all. Was it painless? Yes. Was it worth the money? Yes."

"The pipe in the front yard providing water service to my home burst and was spilling water at the rate of about 4 gallons per minute, flooding my neighbor's yard.  On the recommendation of someone who was at my home providing an unrelated service, I called another plumber first.  Not only did this first plumber make me wait all day for his constantly postponed arrival, he also wanted to tear out the trees in the front yard, and remove large portions of a garden that was installed,at some expense, last year.  I didn't want to destroy the appearance of my home, or lose mature trees, without searching for some alternative first. 

I went on Angie's List to find another plumber to determine if there were an alternative.  I like using small, local businesses, and DB's has high ratings, so I called.  Dave and Tommy from DB's came to my home during the appointed time (no delays) and analyzed the problem from my perspective as the homeowner.  They found a way to install an entirely new line as the old, burst one was running adjacent and close to several other services to the house, including the sewer line, risking breakage, if the original path into the house were followed in laying a new line.  Also, the builder had installed the incoming water service toward the back of the basement, away from the front of the house.  In other words, there were considerable challenges of distance and location to overcome.  

Dave engaged another company with the technology to assist him with running a new line under the house.  No disturbance to the garden, no mess in the house, resulted in one happy homeowner.   The water line was replaced during one day!  They even saved the patches of grass over the few small holes they dug, and overseeded and laid straw on a larger area. Dave also documented the installation on video and is sending me a copy.  This is great service!!

I am so grateful that for this thoughtful, thorough, and professional work.  I cannot speak highly enough of the work that DB's did and strongly recommend this company.  By the way, DB's estimates are rock solid.  There is no surprise bill at the end, even if there are cost overruns, and the work is guaranteed for 5 years.  What's not to love?
