"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."

"I can?t say enough good things about Rozier Pest Control and the incredible service they?ve provided for my home here in South Hill, Virginia. About a decade ago, I was in an emergency situation and they came to the rescue with an encapsulation job that truly saved my house from potential water damage. The level of detail and the quality of their work were impeccable. Fast forward to today, nearly ten years later, the encapsulation still stands strong! I recently got under the house to shut off the water for some shower renovations, and everything remains perfectly clean and well-maintained. The dehumidifier is still running smoothly, which is a testament to the quality of their work. Michael Wallace, the owner-operator, made the experience even better. He was fantastic to work with.. Very professional, reasonable with pricing, and someone you can really trust. I would absolute"

"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."

"My wife and I have used kefficient before when we were having issues with our basement. They did an awesome job for us before, so when we decided to encapsulate our crawl space we knew exactly who to use. They came out and once again were fast, professional, and did an amazing job encapsulating. Our house and air quality feel so much better now. Thank you again! Hopefully we wont need any more services for a while but if we do, we know who to call!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Whether to waterproof your basement from the interior or exterior depends on several factors, including your budget.

Exterior waterproofing is generally considered the superior method because it stops water at the source, preventing it from seeping into and damaging your basement walls. This approach offers the most protection, making it ideal if you use your basement for storage.

By contrast, interior waterproofing is often less expensive and requires less labor because the area is more accessible.

For maximum protection against water leakage and moisture, applying waterproofing measures to both the inside and outside is the best solution. However, if you must choose only one, stopping water from the outside is the most effective approach to preserve your foundation and prevent damage.

It’s not the number of weep holes that should be of concern to builders but rather their spacing. Weep holes are usually spaced anywhere between 16 inches on center when using round tubes or wicking materials and 24 inches on center when using open-head joints. This is a more conservative spacing than the 33-inch maximum spacing on center that’s mentioned in the International Residential Code. All in all, the total number of weep holes a brick exterior should have will depend on the size of the structure.

Yes, water and water vapor can seep through cracks in your basement floor, which means you should address all basement floor cracks, even if they don’t indicate structural issues. Sealing settling cracks and shrinkage cracks is a good idea to keep water and moisture outside where it belongs. Doing so can improve your indoor air quality, reduce the risk of mold growth, make your home more comfortable, and help prevent pest infestation.

You’ll need to reseal the foundation every five to 10 years, depending on the sealant you’ve used, the moisture conditions present in and around your home, and the condition of your foundation. Having a foundation inspection conducted before reapplication can help you catch any problems before you begin resealing. Of course, if you notice any new leaks or other moisture problems at any time, it may be necessary to reseal the foundation sooner.

When doing any type of project involving mold, it's important to wear the right protective gear. You'll want an N-95 or KN-95 mask to keep yourself from inhaling mold spores, which can be irritating or trigger an allergic reaction in people with weakened immune systems. You'll also want to wear protective eyewear and gloves to limit your contact with mold.
