"Renew Basement Foundation installed an egress window in my basement. The work they did was excellent and my egress window is beautiful. I would definitely hire them again for any basement related project. They handled the entire project from end-to-end, permitting, install, and cleanup. They also made recommendations for options that I had not considered that resulted in a significantly better looking final result versus what I had originally chosen."

"Just a super positive experience overall. We were always kept in the loop on what progress was going to be made in the coming day or week. The workers became friends we looked forward to every day. They turned our sad dungeon basement into a light and beautiful and airy and cozy space we actually want to go spend time in with our tiny kiddos. =)"

"The Project Manager, Bob Reber, was extremely helpful. He really knows a lot about basement water solutions. He is also very polite and is welcome back in our home any time! He quickly developed a detailed recommendation for a solution to the problem we were experiencing. Even better was the fact that he was willing to reduce the required work as we discovered additional information about the details of our situation. If we ever need any additional help with our basement, Bob is the only person I will call! Thanks for all your help!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Brick is designed to absorb moisture, but it is also designed to let it evaporate as well. So in general, the goal shouldn’t necessarily be keeping moisture out but making sure it has the room to breathe. If you have excess moisture getting through your brick wall, it’s more likely that you have a crack or other issue at play that a typical sealant won’t fix. So, instead of investing in sealant, try repairing your brick wall instead.

Interlocking garage tiles made with PVC are the most effective for garages with past issues of humidity and flooding because damp concrete is not suitable for paint. Epoxy coating is also water-resistant and can prevent mold buildup. Finally, porcelain tiles are a wonderful option for wet conditions if your budget allows.

Yes, it is possible to over-dehumidify a house by removing too much moisture from the air. This can create an overly dry environment that negatively affects those with respiratory or skin issues, and may cause your skin, hair, and sinuses to feel dry. However, this is unlikely to happen with most modern dehumidifiers, as they are equipped with moisture sensors and adjustable settings. These features allow the unit to pause automatically when the desired humidity level is reached, preventing the air from becoming uncomfortably dry. In contrast, older or more basic dehumidifiers left running for too long could potentially over-dry the air. To avoid this, aim for a balance between removing excess moisture and maintaining a comfortable environment. You can often monitor your home's humidity levels using a modern thermostat for guidance.

Basements with persistent moisture problems or flooding shouldn’t be finished until the moisture issues have been fixed. In addition, if your foundation is cracked, you have unmitigated radon levels, or you have asbestos or lead pipes, remediate the underlying problem before finishing your basement. Turning a basement into living space before fixing these issues can lead to serious health risks or structural damage. 

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.
