"I had purchased $200 worth of services for $119 on Angie's list because we had a leaking drain in our shower. The plumber came out and went under the house twice, without being sure what the problem was. We (the plumber and me) determined that when you stand in the shower it leaked. He said the problem was the mortar under the shower and it would cost approximately $650 to fix. Two weeks later I started looking on Angie's again and reading reviews. After much reading, I called Jerry. I explained the situation to him on the phone and he asked if I had a tile floor in the shower. I don't, I have a one-piece fiberglass shower. He then told me I wouldn't have mortar under the shower and he could fix it for $100. This conversation happened on Monday. I scheduled him for Friday. Well this is Friday and Jerry was here approximately 30 minutes and charged me $100. The drain had broken off from the pipe, all he had to do was move it and he could tell. What a great guy!!!! Honest and efficient. It is great, what a relief. I have a plumber that I trust for life. Yippeeee!!

"Immediate call back when requested quote, and great service. Crew workers are hard working and respectful. The work performed went way beyond the basics... from cutting down 3 ft weeds, removing debris, spraying for weed control, trimming under bushes, cleaning up edges of flower bed, and then spreading bark. I would hire them again, and recommend this company ?."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

You can DIY basement waterproofing in some ways to help save on the overall costs. If your basement isn’t experiencing a lot of water but is noticeably humid, you can try running a dehumidifier that will pull the excess water out of the air. If you notice water leaking due to outdoor drainage issues, you can add downspout extensions to keep rainwater away from your home. 

However, if the problem is more severe and requires a more extensive solution, it’s best to call a basement waterproofing professional to assess the treatment you need and install waterproofing safeguards properly. Since keeping water out of your basement is important, ensuring this job is done correctly the first time is best.

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.

No, your basement dehumidifier doesn’t need to be on 24/7. While it’s an excellent tool for tackling damp, musty air, especially in humid seasons, leaving it running nonstop can backfire. Over-drying the space can mess with your sinuses, warp wood, and even crack certain materials. Instead, only use your humidifier when moisture levels rise above 50%, and then give it a break when the humidity levels drop.

Topical sealers adhere to the surface of concrete to create a protective layer. In many cases, this is all you need for concrete that sees light to moderate traffic, such as your basement. Penetrating sealers, on the other hand, bond with the free lime in the top layer of concrete to form calcium silicate, which prevents liquid from passing through. This type of sealer protects the surface from water, oil, and gasoline spills.

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.
