"From the beginning of the project to the end, Basement Gurus made the process feel painless. They gave me a clear understanding of what remedies were necessary to fix my foundation and ensured that all of my expectations would be met. The contracted workers were timely, considerate, clean, and personable. I strongly recommend Basement Gurus for any waterproofing work and will be using them as often as necessary in the future."

"First attempt at remediation was disappointing, but subsequently a more aggressive effort was made. I must say I was pleasantly surprised at the level of customer service and concern. In a time when warranties and customer satisfaction are just lip service, it is a refreshing experience to deal with a company that values its customerâ s concerns. I would recommend you consider Once And Done for your basement waterproofing needs.."

"This team was great. Tim did the initial site visit and explained everything in detail while drawing a diagram of the work to be completed. Crew was on time, friendly, professional and started work right away. Only about one third of basement needed waterproofing. If future conditions require additional areas to be waterproofed, I will definitely call Highlander."

"I have had a problem for 30 years with dampness along one wall of my basement after it rains. I called Crawlspace Services NEPA and got a prompt callback. After inspection of the basement and an explanation of a suggested repair I received a very thorough proposal and estimate at a competitive if not better price than other contractors. On the appointed day Jimmy, Dave, and their helper arrived right on time, again explained everything they were going to do, and completed the job that day. They were very friendly and did a pretty good job cleaning up the basement before they left. One word of caution: If you have a finished or semi-finished basement with drywall, Crawlspace Services NEPA will replace the sheet rock they remove but will not tape, spackle, or paint. This is left for the homeowner or another contractor. This is not unique to Crawlspace Services NEPA. All of the contractors I contacted who do basement waterproofing said they do not do drywall. Bottom line: Since the work was done there have been two torrential rain storms along with snow melt and for the first time in 30 years the basement is dry. So far,so good. By the way the guys guarantee their work 100%. If you are looking for basement waterproofing or crawlspace repair I would heartily recommend Jimmy, Dave, and the crew of Crawlspace Services NEPA."

FAQs for foundation, basement or crawlspace waterproofing / encapsulation projects in Wilkes Barre, PA

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.
