"Although I did not hire them, I was impressed by their honesty. He explained what the problem was, and told me that it could best be solved by a carpenter, as it was not a cement foundation problem as I thought it was. He also gave a price range of what he thought it would cost. Would hire if I had a problem."

"John was very professional and responsive. They arrived when they said they would ( a rare occurrence, we have discovered, when dealing with several other providers). We got three bids and they were right in the middle. The staff was professional and courteous and the quality of the work was very good. Wish everyone we worked with on our basement remodel were as good as these folks.

"Jim came and gave me a direct quote on Wednesday 03/05 and was there on Friday 03/07 to start work.  He told me he would be done in 4 days and he was and the cost was the exact quote.  His attention to detail is incomparable to previous contractors I have hired.  Jim had a carpenter come to put in the new bookshelves, but when I returned home to view the finished shelving I was appalled at the different lengths of trim and lack of quality in the work.  I told Jim about my issues and he took the time to replace the trim himself because he agreed with me.  He didn't like the bookshelf work either!!!  He helped me with bringing in a fireplace repair company to service my dated gas insert and talked to the service guy as I didn't know anything about my insert.  He found a new sash and painted it to my specs.  Jim went above and beyond in terms of service and quality.  I will be hiring him again to replace my fence when I have saved the funds.

Basement Waterproofing FAQs, answered by experts

If there is standing liquid on your concrete, remove it before attempting any of the above cleaning methods. For small amounts of water, use rags, a bucket, and a mop. For larger areas of liquid, lay down cat litter or baking soda to soak up the water first. If you have extremely large pools of water sitting on your concrete, break out the wet vac and get to work.

The best ventilation for a crawl space is a fully encapsulated crawl space with its own separate ventilation system. If you go this route, ensure you have the proper crawl space code requirements done and dusted before encapsulating your crawl space with a moisture barrier and installing appliances that may not be up to the proper specs.

Yes, water coming up from the floor should be treated as an emergency. If you're unable to either identify or stop the source of the water on your own, contact an emergency plumber right away. In addition to harming your flooring, standing or pooled water can lead to water-damaged concrete.

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.

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.
