"Called company on Monday and got an appointment for an inspection on Wednesday. That following Monday, the technician arrived and went through each step is sealing off the concrete foundation to the water leak. The fix worked well and was put to the test with the recent record rains. Not one drop of water came into the basement."

"I have worked with Jeff Kowalik from Perma Seal for many years. As a Realtor, I have recommended them for all kinds of jobs. The work I have seen them do ranges from filling cracks to drain tile systems to vapor linings and even straightening out a bowed wall on a home. I have a cinder block basement in my home built in 1921. In order to keep moisture and ultimately mold away, Perma Seal installed a vapor barrier, a membrane, around the whole inside of the basement. And then with their suggestion of the dehumidifier, the basement is ready for finishing. First, their sales department is terrific. I use Jeff Kowalik, and he is knowledgeable and instills confidence with his knowledge of what is needed. The workers are on time, organized and get the job done. My personal experience was a 10+. I would highly recommend Jeff Kowalik & Perma Seal for any of your waterproofing needs."

"The installation of the drain tiles, sump pump with the buried drain pipe to the street and window well installation went well. The pipe leak is the only issue that caused the quality score to go down. I had offered to get a plumber in to fix the issue, but they told me they could fix the problem. The first person they had try to do the pipe repair informed me that he wasn't a plumber.after he came back because the pipe was leaking two days later, but they did get an actual plumber and he was in and out in 30 minutes, whereas the first gentleman took over 1/2 a day to try to fix it. The punctuality issue was another issue, as we are a business, and they would say they would be there at 9 but not get there until 10 or 10:30, and then didn't understand why I wouldn't stay past five so they could complete their work. Their half hour more always turned into 1-2 hours later."

"I would not recommend this company if you have a finished basement. The workmen were careless and caused damage to the room that was not discussed during the meeting with the salesman. They put duct tape on newly painted walls causing the paint to be removed with the tape. They were climbing in and out of a window and caused damage to the window ledge. Quarter sized holes were made in the drywall at all levels of the walls and a chunk of my staircase was gouged out. In total it cost $250 to repair. The company acknowledged that it was neglectful on the workers part but would only reimburse $125. Apparently they felt that we were partially responsible for the damage...I guess we were in that we hired them!"

"This company was great. It was try number 5, after dealing with hard sells to rip up my basement floor taking hours, upsells, price increases, false warranties, wasting my time, this company was a breath of fresh air. They gave me a price (which was good) over the phone of which they honored. They did not try to upsell me at all, but simply offered me a choice, I could use Epoxy or the foam. They explained why the foam was better, and since had a lifetime warranty on either, we just used the foam. The guy did the work right there on the spot, and was done a few hours later, leaving no mess. We just had a huge rain, and no leaks... dry basement. These guys are the ones to hire... no sales people to waste your time measuring and calculating... just the person who does the work giving you an honest assessment and then doing it. Nice to see some of those still exist!"

FAQs for foundation, basement or crawlspace waterproofing / encapsulation projects in Plano, 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.
