Basements

Are you looking for an affordable
way to increase your living space in your home?

Basements are prone to water damage due to their location below ground level, and ForeverDry Basement Waterproofing services help protect you from moisture-related issues such as flooding, leaks, mold, and structural damage.

Our waterproofing your basement can be done through various methods, depending on the specific needs and condition of your basement.

Waterproofing Basement Services:

  1. Exterior waterproofing: This method involves excavating the soil around the foundation walls to apply a waterproof coating or membrane. It may also involve installing drainage systems, such as French drains, to redirect water away from the foundation.
  2. Interior waterproofing: In this approach, waterproofing measures are applied from the inside of the basement. It may include the use of waterproof coatings or sealants on the interior walls and floors, installation of interior drainage systems, and sump pump installation to collect and remove water.
  3. Crack repair: Basement walls and floors may develop cracks over time, allowing water to seep in. Waterproofing professionals can identify and repair these cracks using various techniques, such as epoxy injections or polyurethane foam injections, to prevent water infiltration.
  4. Sump pump installation: A sump pump is a key component of many basement waterproofing systems. It collects water that enters the basement and pumps it away from the foundation, preventing water buildup and potential flooding.
  5. Moisture control: In addition to waterproofing, controlling moisture levels in the basement is crucial. Professionals may recommend dehumidifiers, ventilation systems, or moisture barriers to maintain optimal humidity levels and prevent condensation and mold growth.

Benefits of basement waterproofing services include:

  1. Protection against water damage: Waterproofing prevents water from entering the basement, protecting the structure, belongings, and finishes from water-related damage, such as mold growth, rot, and deterioration.
  2. Enhanced property value: A waterproofed basement is an attractive feature for potential homebuyers. It adds value to the property and increases its marketability.
  3. Improved indoor air quality: By preventing moisture buildup and mold growth, basement waterproofing helps maintain healthier indoor air quality throughout the home.
  4. Expanded usable space: A dry and waterproofed basement can be transformed into additional living space, such as a recreation room, office, or guest suite, providing more functional areas for homeowners.

Frequently Asked Questions about Basement Waterproofing

Are you looking for an affordable way to increase your living space in your home?

By waterproofing your basement and foundation, you can ensure a moisture-free space that can be converted into a spare bedroom or additional living area.

Our barrier waterproofing methods help ensure the safety and integrity of your foundation. Foundational walls that have not been properly waterproofed will eventually give in to hydrostatic pressure, resulting in cracks as well as leaks.

Does your house seem to be sucking up all of the water after a thunderstorm?

The problem could be that your foundation is not waterproofed correctly. We can install a protective coating so that water and moisture will never enter your home again. That’s a LIFETIME GUARANTEE.

One of the benefits of our exterior waterproofing solutions is that this entire barrier method is done with no disruption to the interior of your basement. In fact, the workmen won’t even need to enter your home.

Can waterproof paint offer the same results as professional waterproofing services?

Unfortunately no. Waterproof paint will not stop moisture from seeping into the walls themselves and offers no protection for the floor. Another quick fix other waterproofing services may do is replace footer drains as a means to solve flooding, leaking or moisture problems. While footer drains can help to reduce the severity of basement flooding or leaking, they do not offer a 100% effective and lifetime solution.

How much will waterproofing a basement cost?

That can depend on a number of factors, including the size of the basement and materials the basement was constructed from. However, for all our waterproofing jobs we offer a FREE ESTIMATE.
