I contacted the company to have someone come out and provide me an estimate for waterproofing my basement/repairing my wall from recent water leaking into the basement. The whole point was that water was coming in - it's usually helpful to be able to show someone while the area is wet so there is no ambiguity. They were unable to send anyone to assess the situation until such time as the weather was suitable (read: sunny) and that they would have to cancel for inclement weather. Heh? That defeats the point! Took them 3-4 days to get someone out. When he did come, he was insistent the flooding must have come from a drain outside of the door despite me indicating no less than 4-5 times that was not the case. (He clearly wasn't listening.) Ultimately, he determined that he had no idea what the issue was - or what to fix. (Mind you, this was 1 of 4 estimates I was getting for the work. And, this was the only one that couldn't come up with some kind of recommendation or proposal.) After the fact, I got a call from the company indicating that they could not complete the work because I had a leak in my roof which caused the issue (heh?!). I can only hope that they confused me with someone else.. because my roof was no part of the discussion, and in a 3 story house.. that was not the source of water coming in under a basement footboard.

Went very well. David came out the same day we called. He gave us options for the work and once we decided on the basic repair so we could stop the leak, he moved quickly to cut the line, attach and solder the new pipe, and verify that the new line was leak free. We found the leak the evening...

"Our deck caught fire last summer and we contracted Chris Heinz to do the rebuilding and replacement of our fire-damaged exterior. Chris was wonderful to work with! He worked with our insurance company tirelessly and also kept us informed every step of the way. He and his crew removed our old deck and siding, and built a new deck, a landing and stairs off our kitchen, installed a new sliding door and four windows, replaced our siding and trim, and installed new outdoor lighting. There were a few delays due to the pandemic and materials being readily unavailable from one of the manufacturers, but the timeframe was reasonable given the circumstances. Chris and his crew did an amazing job and we couldn’t be happier. We love our beautiful new deck and the new siding and trim. We get so many compliments from our neighbors and passers-by! We will definitely go to Chris next time we need work on our house and recommend him to everyone!"

FAQs for basement leak repair projects in Pimmit Hills, VA
The cost to finish a basement is $18,400 for the average homeowner. However, this cost could be as little as $2,800 or as much as $34,500, depending on the basement size and the materials needed. If your basement is already outfitted with electrical and plumbing, expect the cost to fall on the lower end.
For example, the drywall cost for this project averages around $1,750, but other features, like hiring a plumber, cost between $45 and $200 per hour.
The cost to remodel a basement is between $12,100 and $33,400 for the average homeowner. The price you pay can be as little as $3,500 or as much as $50,200, depending on the size and condition of your basement and the type of remodel you're doing.
If you're doing a simple project like adding a home office to your basement, you can expect to pay anywhere from $500 to $3,000. However, if you're adding a bathroom, which is an extensive project, you can expect to pay between $6,600 to $16,500.
Damp proofing and waterproofing are both methods to help keep your basement dry. Damp proofing keeps soil moisture from entering your basement, which is helpful since your basement is underground. Waterproofing, however, keeps both soil moisture and liquid water out of the basement, which is essential, especially if you live in a wet environment. Because it’s more protective, waterproofing typically costs more than damp proofing.
Although homeowners often use the terms basement remodeling and basement finishing interchangeably, they are quite different terms.
Finishing a basement is the process of taking a basement space that is not habitable and adding elements to make it usable. This includes adding plumbing, flooring, and insulation.
Remodeling a basement means taking an already existing finished basement and changing it, often by adding or removing walls, adding plumbing, or changing the existing flooring.
The cost of basement waterproofing is $4,950 for the average homeowner. However, you could end up paying between $600 and $14,000, depending on factors like basement size, waterproofing method, and the region you live in.
If you live in an area with heavy rainfall, you might be paying more for waterproofing than if you lived somewhere drier since waterproofing contractors would be in high demand. Likewise, a 500-foot basement costs between $2,500and $5,000 to waterproof, but that price rises significantly for a larger basement.
