"Did a great job at the installation. Great call back and showed up on time. The real gem here is a few months later the back flow valve failed. You really know how good a company is when you have a warranty claim and these guys were excellent! Called on a Sunday and they called first thing Monday morning and were here early afternoon to replace the back flow valve failed- under warranty. Great company!"

EverDry of Cincinnati is a full service basement waterproofing and foundation repair company. Our patented multi-step system is chosen by the vast majority of out customers.
"It would be zero if I could. DO NOT let them sell you on the WARRANTY aspect of their service! Not only have we had a few major issues over the 20 + years we have been customers but we currently have an actively flooding basement and I cannot for the life of me get someone out for service in a timely manner. They have "scheduled" us for an appointment that is months away. Meanwhile, it continues to rain and snow, water pouring into my basement. I've had to use and dump a large wet vac hours on end to try and contain it. Which tells me, either their system is so ineffective that multiple people are having the same issue so they don't have any appointments available or they simply prioritize new installs over emergencies. I've had my basement finished, had to rip everything out several years ago due to the system. I'm a seamstress and my work room is in the basement. Expensive machines. So much property destroyed and the time lost working is costing me thousands."

"Had them come out for a quote. High pressure sales but we caved as the sales lady was really nice and signed. Had second thoughts as it was a high pressure sales situation, and reached out to the sales lady, she came out a second time, addressed my concerns and questions, and updated the work order to add a woodwork project of sistering a joist and removed the permit fee as the job did not need a permit. They called to confirm the date they were coming out to do the job and I specifically asked for them to confirm that BOTH the waterproofing and woodwork was going to be completed that day, she paused, and told me yes, the job will be completed on Monday. Monday comes, they leave with incomplete job and request payment for the updated amount, so they had the correct updated order on hand. Part of the job included "remove and replace" the steps to the basement as they are in the corner. They dismantled the steps and did not replace them. I had 1/2 a set of stairs to my basement, just hanging there. Tuesday I reach out to GM Clayton and he tells me he will be in touch. Over 24 hours later I complete the "How did we do?" job completed survey, and I get a call from Clayton. They are coming out the following Monday to complete the job. Monday comes, they still do not finish the job and hire a subcontractor to finish the work. Literally had a different contractor come out and give Clayton a quote for the job in my home on Monday. He returned Tuesday morning to finish his job. He did a HORRIBLE job replacing the steps that were removed. Once I was FINALLY able to see the work in the basement, the workmanship is total crap. Clayton says they are coming out next Monday to repair the work but I am really disappointed with the whole situation. I will be seeking legal council about them breaching the contract, and seeking a refund for the inconvenience and stress of this due to their negligence."

Construction company and consulting engineering firm for residential, industrial, commercial, institutional, and retail clients.
"Had Betts Structural Engineering come and look at the foundation of a house we were in contract on. Josh came out and was professional and informative. He informed us the foundation was failing and explained what needed to be done. He throughly explained everything and told us how we could do it ourselves for much cheaper than a contractor could do it. In the end he saved us from a long and expensive process if we proceeded with the house."

Due to the nature of basements, some level of waterproofing is necessary to prevent water from seeping in and causing damage. Some definitive signs that your basement needs waterproofing measures or needs existing waterproofing measures need to be updated include:
Water in your basement, including damp walls or puddles on the floor
Mold spots in your basement
Musty smells or odors
Warped doors or walls
Cracks in walls
Insect issues, such as cockroaches and termites
You can DIY basement waterproofing in some ways to help save on the overall costs. If your basement isn’t experiencing a lot of water but is noticeably humid, you can try running a dehumidifier that will pull the excess water out of the air. If you notice water leaking due to outdoor drainage issues, you can add downspout extensions to keep rainwater away from your home.
However, if the problem is more severe and requires a more extensive solution, it’s best to call a basement waterproofing professional to assess the treatment you need and install waterproofing safeguards properly. Since keeping water out of your basement is important, ensuring this job is done correctly the first time is best.
Damp proofing and waterproofing are both methods to help keep your basement dry. Damp proofing keeps soil moisture from entering your basement, which is helpful since your basement is underground. Waterproofing, however, keeps both soil moisture and liquid water out of the basement, which is essential, especially if you live in a wet environment. Because it’s more protective, waterproofing typically costs more than damp proofing.
Several factors dictate if you should waterproof the interior or exterior of your basement. Waterproofing the exterior of your home is a great option if you use your basement for storage, as it provides the most protection from water and water damage. If you prefer work done outside of your home versus inside, exterior waterproofing is best for you. However, interior waterproofing is often less expensive since the area is easier to reach and requires less labor.
The cost of basement waterproofing is $4,950 for the average homeowner. However, you could end up paying between $600 and $14,000, depending on factors like basement size, waterproofing method, and the region you live in.
If you live in an area with heavy rainfall, you might be paying more for waterproofing than if you lived somewhere drier since waterproofing contractors would be in high demand. Likewise, a 500-foot basement costs between $2,500 and $5,000 to waterproof, but that price rises significantly for a larger basement.
