"To start, this was our situation: our basement has three "rooms", one of which is predominantly a crawl space area. In this section, there is a lot of ledge in the basement, and a LOT of water worked its way into our basement with every rainstorm. On top of this, the crawl space section was closest to the stairwell, so the mildewy smell kind of permeated throughout the house. TC Hafford was extremely easy to work with. Our initial estimate was fast, easy, and informative. They will actually send you detailed brochures and outlines of how they're going to waterproof your space. From there, it became obvious that the customer service and workers really cared about the quality of their work, and in making sure we were happy every step of the way. The service was fantastic, and we always felt "in the loop". The job took slightly longer than expected (it was not an easy job), but the end results were exactly what we had hoped for. What we ultimately had done was this: the team encapsulated our entire crawlspace with the CleanSpace and Waterguard system, then installed a single sump pump to replace the two we already had. To do this, they needed to install Waterguard drainage piping with crushed rock throughtout the basement (which was later cemented over again so it's unobtrusive). Then they covered the ledge and unfinished parts of the basement with CleanSpace with Waterguard underneath, which keeps the moisture separate from the rest of the basement and allows the piping to carry any water down to the sump pump. They then installed a drainage system that led away from the house (again, as unobtrusive and well-done as possible). Given our experience as a whole, we plan to call TC Hafford in the future with any needs, and would definitely recommend them."

"Crack-X sent Tom to fix it. I am very satisfied with the work Tom did on my basement crack on July 19. He was very professional. He would inform me his lateness due to the traffic. When he’s here, he would tell me what he would do and how long it would take for each step. He finished the work just as he said. I am so glad that all is moving so smoothly. The fix has stood the tests of the last a few rains and no any sign of leaking again."

"I had contacted Brent about some renovations we wanted done on a home we were purchasing (I contacted him before we took ownership to try to schedule work to begin soon after we got the home). He had initially been enthusiastic because he thought he would be available just when we would need the work. He was a little slow to reply to emails and I had to follow up with him a few times -- I assumed this is because he was busy with his current job. There were some odd lapses in professionalism at times -- once, for example, he emailed me that he had just gotten back from a job and was too tired to reply but would get back to me later, which he never did. It seemed strange he didn't just flag the email to respond to at a later time. Also, he picked up the phone when I called him at one point and it quickly became apparent he couldn't really talk -- it seemed like he should have just let it go to voicemail. <br /> <br /> When I followed up with him recently to arrange a time to come by to do the actual estimate, he told me that he was busy with another job, and added that the job was probably too far away, and that he wasn't licensed to work in Massachusetts. I was annoyed that he hadn't said any of this at first contact, as it would have saved me the trouble of following up with him multiple times previously. Generally, he didn't seem as knowledgable or helpful about the whole process of renovation (licensing, permits, etc.) as other contractors I've spoken with."

"Our experience with Cory and Basement Improvements could not have been better! Cory was a pleasure to deal with - very professional, polite, and an extremely hard worker. He also communicated very well during the entire process. Our basement looks great and has stayed perfectly dry during many heavy rainstorms. Thank you Cory for a great great job!"

"The project consisted of new landscaping and beds on both front and side yards. We worked directly with the owner Jack Oswald for the design and he was innovative, highly professional, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. The landscape staff were very competent, professional, and kind. The quality of all the work that had to be done, including the sprinkler system was exceptional. The completed project is stunning and just like I wanted. My husband and I highly recommend Black Bear Landscaping for your projects. You will enjoy working with them."

"We began planning the project in the summer and again, Chris Moon was our project manager. The project began in the fall, after we left for the season. It was a much more difficult and complicated project than we expected because of the nature of the sewer lines necessitating water to be pumped upward. Permits were complicated and took more time than usual but Chris persisted and everything was eventually approved. The project included a double shower, toilet, sink and linen closet. It is very spacious and laid out beautifully. The project was completely done by Hazelwood and sub-contractors coordinates by them. Electrical, plumbing, painting and al finishing. Washer and dryer were also re-located and rough in’s were done for a future laundry sink. All work has been completed. The winter presented many challenges during this construction that were all handled and resolved. Everything was left in order. In the next few months, we plan to complete finishing the rest of the basement. Plans have already been discussed and I look forward to working with Chris again. His work ethic is exceptional and he is simply a caring person who gets the job done with the highest level of professionalism. Certainly Hazelwood is lucky to have him. Thanks again, Hazelwood!"

"They are honest about things that needed to be done, that he could or could not do. He has a lot going on and so he has to work on bigger project first but that is common. Sometimes if he do not have a big job you cannot really expect to get quick service, that kind of goes for a lot of people. I would use his services again in the future, as eventually it’s the right thing."

FAQs for foundation, basement or crawlspace waterproofing / encapsulation projects in Ocean-park, ME

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.
