"We highly recommend US Waterproofing. Unfortunately, after repeated issues (we’ve had water getting through a basement door, water backing up from drain/sewer pipe, foundation cracks – all which were addressed) we now have had issues with hydrostatic water pressure delivering a great deal of water to our finished basement. Only one solution – drain tiles and sump pump installation. US Waterproofing was outstanding, every step of the way. They communicated clearly what was needed, and much to our surprise, what was not. They did not ever try to sell us anything that was not needed – only what was – installation of drain tile, window well drains, sump pump, and all work related. All of the crews involved were outstanding – in particular, the crews installing the drain tile and sump pump. The supervisor clearly and concisely explained every step – and when issues arose, they were dealt with promptly. The teams removing drywall and reinstalling also did very good work, and were very responsive. Everything was done correctly, and on schedule The work is now complete – and the basement is back to normal. I commend USW on all facets – they explained everything, did not try to oversell anything, and were responsive to issues as they arose. All the way around – sales, customer support, install teams – outstanding. If you have an issue with water in your home, please consider US Waterproofing."

"My husband and I had a wonderful experience with The Real Seal in July 2024. They fixed a bowing foundation and waterproofed the basement for future finishing. Their team was prompt, respectful, organized and thoroughly educated us on the drainage tile system, installation process and prevention. Thank you, Real Seal for being the flawless first step to our dream basement/family space!"

"They did a great job.  They came out a couple of times to make sure they knew what they were going to do and explained everything to me.  When the time came for the job to start I wasn't able to be on site during the work so I gave them the keys and they did what needed to be done and I was very pleased. It took about four or five days. I can't say it enough, I'm still pleased whenever I go to the basement."

"My basement experienced water flooding in multiple locations after very heavy rain. A well-known company provided an estimate of 14K for floor tiles, a new sump pump and told me the bathroom would have to be remodeled because of the floor tiles. Allegro Design came out for an estimate and told me that they would have to cut the drywall in the rooms because they could not diagnose the problem by guessing. After hiring them, they cut the drywall which revealed there were huge wall cracks by the windows. They sealed them from both inside and outside. They dug up my yard and applied liquid rubber and cleaned up so well that you could not tell they were there. They also cut the drywall neatly so we could reattach them ourselves later. I appreciate their honestly, fair pricing, cleanliness and the fact that they did not try to sell me on an expensive new sump pump or floor tiles. I highly recommend them."

"My mother and I both had waterproofing done by Gus and Petro. They were very professional. It took 3 days to complete. Most of the 3 days it rained and they both continued to work regardless of the weather. The jobs were done in a timely matter."

FAQs for foundation, basement or crawlspace waterproofing / encapsulation projects in Arlington Heights, IL

The most affordable way to waterproof your basement is with interior methods like waterproof paint, costing between $1 and $8 per square foot, or silicate concrete sealers priced at $4 to $6 per square foot. However, these solutions are only suitable for certain issues. If your basement moisture is due to more serious problems like a cracked foundation, you'll need more extensive (and costly) repairs.

Absolutely! Waterproofing your basement is a smart investment that can increase your home's value. By keeping your basement dry and free of moisture problems, you protect your home's structural integrity and make it more appealing to potential buyers. Plus, taking proactive measures now can prevent costly water damage repairs down the line.

The time required to waterproof a basement depends on the selected method. Some approaches to interior waterproofing, like paint or sealant, can be completed within a day. Installing new drains or weeping tiles will need at least two to three days of labor. Any forms of exterior waterproofing that require you to excavate land will require an additional three days of work to prepare the ground.

Yes, basement waterproofing can significantly increase your home's value. A dry, leak-free basement is a strong selling point for potential buyers, enhancing your property's desirability and market price. Investing in professional waterproofing not only protects your home's structural integrity but also ensures a healthier living environment by preventing mold and mildew growth.

Waterproofing both the interior and exterior of your basement offers the best protection against moisture. Exterior waterproofing stops water from penetrating your foundation, while interior methods manage any moisture that does enter. If you must choose one, exterior waterproofing is generally more effective, as it prevents water from reaching your home's interior in the first place.
