Choosing a Local Waterproofing Expert for Your Basement

Wet basements are not fun! Flooded basements are a homeowner’s nightmare. If you are suffering from constant worry about the health and safety of your basement, it’s time for a change. If you’ve tried DIY efforts to fix pooling water, cracks in your foundation, leaky basement windows, or high humidity, it’s time to find an experienced, professional waterproofer you can trust. A wet basement wastes valuable living space, damages building materials and stored possessions, pollutes the indoor air, risks the health of those living in the home, and puts your investment in your home at risk. That adds up to considerable risk.

Look for expertise, training, and experience

When you choose a Basement Systems contractor, you're getting a local company trained in and committed to the best waterproofing practices. Each contractor listed here is an expert in the diagnosis of sub-grade moisture problems as well as the design and installation of proper drainage, moisture and humidity control, and basement materials. Say good-bye to your wet basement with the best basement waterproofing in your neighborhood!

Why Do Basements in Maine Get Wet?

Flooded basement: Once your basement gets flooded, you want to understand why, in addition to getting it fixed. Severe basement flooding in Maine can be caused by heavy spring rains, summer thunderstorms, and flash floods.

Other reasons for wet basements: There are many possible sources for pooling water, damp basement walls or flooring, and high humidity. These include: rusty basement windows, poor grading around the foundation, leaks through cracks in the foundation, saturated soils, simple plumbing failures, and poorly functioning drainage or sump pump systems. A basement already musty and damp is ill-prepared for the next bad rainstorm! Basement waterproofing can address the underlying issues, prevent future water damage and improve the indoor air quality.

    I wanted to let you know how happy I am with the job done on my basement. The whole procedure was with almost no stress, and Sam explained everything to me until I'd understand, even when it meant me bugging him with text questions. He never got impatient! Everyone was friendly and professional, and always ready to answer any questions as they worked. I am very happy with how it turned out, and when we had the big rain storm last weekend, I went down cellar and not a drop was leaking! But I could hear water in the drainage pipes, so knew there would be no water on my floor! It made me smile! You are a very good company to work with, and I would recommend you to anyone. I also appreciated the fact that everyone there is a good communicator, always getting right back to me if I called, and passing on the information if needed. I hope you all have a safe and happy Memorial Day weekend, and thanks again for such a wonderful job. I really do think Sam deserves a bonus, if you knew how often I bugged him with questions!! Thanks very much

    I cannot tell you adequately how pleased I was (am) to deal with your company. Dealing with house maintenance is all new to me, very frightening, and definitely not my area of expertise. Everyone was a pleasure to deal with - from the always helpful, friendly, and kind office staff who initially answered my panicked phone call, to Mike the wonderful salesman, and even the crew who did the work fixing my foundation. Most companies do not realize how important it is to have excellent customer service skills in their employees. That is what people remember, and keeps them returning. All of you turned a frightening, disasterous situation for me into one that I realize could have been a lot worse. Thank you for being there when my need was great, and please keep up the excellent work!

    Very professional and personable. From the start, Mike was great to talk to when he was giving his estimate. I expected a new foundation wall, seeing it was old deteriorated brick. He said they could build a support wall inside with a warranty. I got my estimate within hours and felt that was reasonable. When they came over the crew did a quick and excellent job setting up. The day they poured my 4 year old grandson got to watch the mixer pour and the tender explained everything to him. After they removed the forms and cleaned up it looked terrific.
