"Original estimate was for just under $4,000 and I was told I would pay extra for anything over the quote, but that it, "probably wouldn't be much, if any." I was thrilled. I immediately signed and cancelled the other estimates I had scheduled. On the day of work, the Technician stopped 1/3 of the way through and stated he used all the foam that was allotted and that any additional work would cost extra. When he was done, my project wound up costing almost $10,000. Voicemails to the project manager went unreturned for a week and a half. Finally received an email after escalating and got a simple email stating that the tech shaved off some cost and that I authorized the additional work. Needless to say, this felt like a bait and switch and left me with an extremely poor opinion of this company. Needless to say, I will never be doing work with TerraFirma again."

"I contacted Foundations First NorthWest and a couple of other contractors when an inspection revealed some foundation settling and crawl space damage. I chose Foundations First to make the repairs because they included more work, and at a lower price, than their competitors. I can't say enough about how professional everyone at Foundations First NorthWest was, from the first meeting with the sales rep to the constant communication with office staff throughout the project. Every step was completed without a hitch -- getting permits, engineering, the repair work and county inspections. The work crews worked quickly and efficiently on both the installation of stabilizing foundation piers, and also on the crawl space repairs. And they left the work areas in a very clean condition. I highly recommend Foundations First!"

"Our basement flooded in January 2021. Drainage Master was one of 3 estimates we obtained. Seth inspected the situation and suggested and exterior drainage system The our two estimates we for interior systems with a sump pump. The other two companies would not provide an estimate for and exterior system. Also the estimate did not include the cost to repair damage the installation of an interior system would do to a finished basement. The crew was great the foreman answered all of our questions the job was done on time and in budget. I would highly recommend them."

"The crew did the job in two days! David and Zack were professional and skilled, and the job site was neat and clean when they finished. Matt was personable and easy to work with. In fact, we're looking around for other jobs these guys could do! Highly recommend."

"We were one of the lucky ones to work with Lovett, County, an another Contractor on a project that we didn't want! When they got to moving our water meter and PRV, the contractor or Water company couldn't work on private property, so they hired Lovett. Where they move our PRV, it was under water. We had told them where they were putting it; that the water table is high. But, Lovett and the County said this is where it needs to go. This whole process lasted for months, I sent photos of our PRV under ice, no response but it did show up on their Facebook page, "to call if this happens to you" my photo that I had sent! I have chatted with both Scott and Gabe, plus the tech(s) on site. All (3) companies kept putting the blame on one another. I had a conference call with all 3 of them, and told them that my PRV is under 3' of water and I need help. I asked multiple times for an estimate, and no one would send me one. This whole mess started with their employee coming into our home looking at our hot water heater and mentioning where that PRV is, that we will have problems. This is in the wrong location. They did come out and move it 12", which was a complete waste of time. Again, as I mentioned it's under 3' of water. Their answer was this employee no longer works with us! Over and over! Scott told me in the very beginning, "We will take care of you, if not you can write a review". Where here I am writing a review."

FAQs for foundation, basement or crawlspace waterproofing / encapsulation projects in Salem, OR

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.
