Hi! I've realized that I'm happiest in life working out-of-doors and with my hands. This has given me the opportunity to learn how to be an efficient and effective handyman with multiple areas of expertise. I spent several years in woodworking (furniture, floors, fences, maintenance, etc..), and currently co-own a seasonal landscape outfit specializing in Japanese-inspired landscapes.\n\nThis career has armed me with ample experience in anything from general lawn care all the way to major transformations. Some examples include: hardscaping, water features, patios, drainage, sprinkler repair, low-voltage lighting installation and repair, mulching, flower beds, rock gardens, and so much more. I'm not shy about getting on a roof and cleaning some gutters either, as well as other less glamorous work. \n\nI'm looking forward to connecting and lending a hand!

Basement Waterproofing FAQs, answered by experts

There are several small, inexpensive upgrades you can make to upgrade your basement. Although you still need to adhere to building codes and obtain permits when necessary, you can complete small but mighty tasks like painting the masonry walls and installing entertainment devices to make the space more usable. 

Standing water under your house can threaten its structural integrity. If water pools in your crawl space, it can damage the foundation and the structure above ground, causing wood rot, mold, and other problems. If you have a concrete foundation, standing water under your house can also make your foundation slabs crack.

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.

Some basement waterproofing methods can actually cause your water or moisture problems to get worse, which is why it’s so important to call in a professional who knows how to solve your underlying issue and use the appropriate waterproofing methods. An example of this would be applying latex waterproofing paint to the insides of your basement walls without fixing the water issue outside. Doing so can trap moisture in the basement walls, which can promote mold growth, peeling paint, and even damaged concrete. However, when done by a professional, the only downside to basement waterproofing is the up-front cost.

Yes, you can finish a basement that leaks, as long as you address the leak first. Before finishing a basement, you’ll need to repair any cracks in the walls and waterproof the basement to prevent future leaks. It’s much harder to clean up a water leak from a finished basement than an unfinished one, so preemptively addressing any leaking areas prevents expensive repairs in the future.
