"My basement had wall crack steps, horizontal cracks, bowing issues along with moisture issues. Water would come in the basement regularly. Everything was taken care of by RENEW about 6-7 years ago. They replaced some of the foundation bricks, installed a drainage system, placed reinforcement rods along the walls and installed a sump pump. RENEW also helped me with additional request as the project progressed (removing personal items, etc). On the exterior they added and pitched dirt along with placing decorative rocks. I’m writing this 6-7 years later so I’m sure I’ve left a few things out. Since having the work done, my basement has been dry. THERE IS NO WATER/MOISTURE PROBLEMS AT ALL! RENEW is a family business that takes pride in their work. They are dependable, personable, reasonable with cost and most of all knowledgeable. Most reviews are done relatively close to when the work is performed. My review is years later which should tell anyone reading this, they do excellent work at a reasonable price."

"Chris at Accurate Basement simply excels! He responded quickly to my request, working me into the schedule on a tight week, and he was right on time. I was impressed by his thoroughness while still being able to clearly communicate results to an uninformed layman like me. My service involved a home sale basement/foundation inspection. Chris did a great job in making both buyer and seller comfortable which is no small feat."

"Erie Home Basement Solutions was a pleasure to work with. Everyone was on time, and always polite and courteous throughout this process. This is extremely hard work and they continued to always have a smile on their face and answer any questions I had. They worked diligently to complete the project on time and fulfilled all aspects of the contract. Actually, they went above and beyond to make sure I was pleased with their service, which is unusual in todayâ s work culture. I would highly recommend this company for your basement waterproofing needs."

"They are great to work with. Communication was superior. They stand by their work. A few years ago I had waterproofing done in my basement and this time they spray foamed the cavities of the basement too. Both times they did awesome work and cleaned up too! I highly recommend this company!"

"I was able to make an appointment through Erin in the office to schedule someone to come out within a week. Kyle came out to give us an estimate. He was prompt and courteous. He examined our basement walls from the inside and then walked the outside of the property. He informed us we didn't need basement or foundation repair. Our problem was our gutters and the grading of our lawn. He recommended two solutions to those problems and stated which would be cheaper. We appreciated his advice and that he didn't take any money for the estimate or advice. If our basement or foundation ever does need repair, we are definitely calling Accurate Basement Repair."

"I had them install an egress window mid-July. I was pretty happy with the window. Late August we had the major rains and the window held up great. Unfortunately, the dirt they back filled sunk 1.5 feet down around the entire perimeter 2-3 feet out. This was not a complaint for me, it happens with back fill. What was a problem was that I sent dozens of texts and phone calls to empty promises to bring me more dirt for almost 2 months. Then suddenly they tell me they won't bring the dirt since they considered this "landscaping" which was not included in the contract, without even coming to see the extent of the issue. This was a backfill problem, NOT landscaping. They FINALLY conceded to bring dirt, but complained they'd have to rent equipment to get to the backyard. At this point I just said put it in my driveway and I'd move it. So, this past Saturday, I (at almost 50 years old) spent 5 hours moving a huge pile of dirt instead of the people with young men and machinery that I paid $6,000 to do the work. On top of that, they dumped the dirt across the entire front of my garage instead of to the side (2 car driveway), trapping my car in the garage until I finished moving the dirt. So, either they were being massive jerks about it, or just incredibly stupid."

"When we bought our house, there were several cracks in the basement foundation walls - we were assured that the prior owners never had any problem with water leakage through them. However, once we lived there we discovered that every so often, under certain conditions, water would indeed leak through - and while it was never a lot of water, was in the unfinished part of the basement, and never caused any terrible problems, we always knew this was something we really should take care of at some point. So "Repair Basement Wall Cracks" was added to our "To Do List" ... where it remained for almost 10 years!  <br /> But at last it made it to the top of the list - the time had come! We contacted Dry Otter Basement Waterproofing after reading their excellent reviews on Angie's List, and were very pleased with their service. Co-owner Nick was very helpful and responsive when we were making the initial inquiries, the work was scheduled in short order, and the two workers who came to do the job were excellent - they were helpful, friendly, knowledgeable, and willing to explain the procedure and discuss some options for the project. They left the job site very clean as well.  <br /> The repairs look great - we have every confidence that we will have a dry basement going forward. If it did turn out that some issues remain, Dry Otter's excellent warranty and professionalism would make us have no hesitation in contacting them again to diagnose and address any remaining problems. <br />"

"From start to finish we were so impressed with how professional and proficient Gauranteed Foundations was. The owner really knows his stuff and was very honest and to the point. He did not try to scare us or sell us a bunch of stuff we didn't need. The work was very well done, and they left the job site spotless. Best of all our basement nightmare is officially over. Subsequently, when selling our home several realtors even mentioned how well the work was done compared to other companies' work they had seen. Thankfully we can rest assured the job was done right and the price was more than fair."

FAQs for foundation, basement or crawlspace waterproofing / encapsulation projects in Waukesha, WI

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.
