What's Included in Real Waterproofing

You get a complete moisture control system tailored to your specific situation. This might include exterior excavation and waterproof membrane installation, interior drainage systems, or basement wall sealing – whatever your home actually needs.

We handle both the masonry work and waterproofing installation. Cracked foundation walls get properly repaired before waterproofing goes on. This integrated approach means everything works together.

Your basement gets protection that addresses the root cause, not just the symptoms. We’re not applying basement sealer over problems – we’re eliminating the conditions that let water in.

Basement waterproofing costs vary significantly based on your home’s specific needs, basement size, and the extent of water problems. Simple interior sealing might run a few thousand dollars, while comprehensive exterior waterproofing with drainage systems can cost significantly more. The key is getting the right solution for your situation rather than the cheapest option. We provide detailed estimates after inspecting your basement so you know exactly what you’re paying for and why each component is necessary for long-term protection.
The best approach depends on your specific water problems and home conditions. Exterior basement waterproofing addresses water before it reaches your foundation walls and typically provides more comprehensive protection, especially for homes with significant groundwater pressure like many in Greenport. Interior waterproofing manages water that does get through and can be more practical when exterior access is limited. Many effective solutions combine both approaches. We evaluate your situation and recommend the most effective method based on where water enters, your soil conditions, and your home’s construction.
Most basement waterproofing projects take 2-5 days depending on the scope of work needed. Simple interior applications might be completed in a day or two, while exterior waterproofing with excavation typically takes longer. Weather can affect exterior work timing, and we’ll adjust schedules accordingly. We provide realistic timelines upfront and keep you informed if anything changes. The goal is thorough work that lasts, not rushing through important details that affect long-term performance.
Proper waterproofing dramatically reduces basement humidity by eliminating moisture sources, which helps prevent mold growth. However, existing mold needs to be addressed separately, and you might need additional humidity control depending on your basement’s conditions. Waterproofing stops water intrusion, but factors like poor ventilation or remaining moisture in materials can still contribute to humidity issues. We’ll discuss what to expect for your specific situation and recommend additional steps if needed to achieve the dry, healthy basement environment you want.
Signs you need basement waterproofing include water stains on walls or floors, musty odors, visible mold or mildew, white mineral deposits on walls, peeling paint, or actual water pooling during or after storms. Even minor dampness shouldn’t be ignored since it often gets worse over time. If you notice any of these issues, especially after heavy rains, it’s worth having a professional evaluation. Early intervention typically costs less than waiting until water problems become severe and cause structural damage or extensive mold issues.
Warranty coverage varies by company and the specific waterproofing methods used. Quality contractors typically offer warranties on both materials and workmanship, though terms differ for interior versus exterior work. The most important thing is working with a contractor who stands behind their work and uses proven methods and materials. We discuss warranty details upfront so you understand exactly what’s covered and for how long. Remember that proper installation is more important than warranty length – waterproofing done right the first time rarely needs warranty service.
