Damp and cold are the most common words that American homeowners use to describe their basements. They are magnets for moisture, attracting mold, standing water, dampness, and even pests that thrive in moist environments. What many homeowners fail to see is that the health of the entire home depends on your basement. There’s a lot that can go wrong in a space that is likely to combine excess moisture and mold spread. Unfortunately, either dampness nor mold stops at the basement door. They can affect your foundations, structural walls, and the air you breathe.
Additionally, a damp basement increases your energy costs and consumption. That’s where our basement waterproofing solutions can make a significant difference. Our team of waterproofing specialists can offer a range of services to tackle mold-prone and wet basements. Whether you’re considering converting your basement or want to make your home more energy-friendly and inviting, basement waterproofing can transform your home and health.
Customers are often unsure of how to approach basement waterproofing and what it includes. Our professional team can help you tackle the following issues:
- Do I need to repair my basement?
- How do I waterproof my basement?
- Can insulation make a difference?
- How to stop foundation damage?
- How do I remove water in my basement?
- How do I prevent moisture from seeping in?
- How much does basement waterproofing cost?
Basement Waterproofing and Repair Services
Every basement is different. Consequently, the team of experts at Sedona Waterproofing Solutions designs custom basement waterproofing solutions to fit each home. As such, there is more than one way of approaching your waterproofing requirements. We rely on the highest quality and most durable materials on the market to transform your damp basement into a safe space. Therefore, we can address individual basement issues and provide the necessary repair and replacement services for:
- Standing water and flooding
- Mold and mildew
- Pest removal
- Moisture seeps up through walls and flour
- Condensation problems from walls and HVAC units
- Fixing insulation falling from floor joists
Basement Wall Insulation
Our basement insulation approach differs based on your needs. We propose a full encapsulation service to protect you from moisture infiltration. Encapsulating the basement allows us to remove all potential damp spots. It is a highly effective approach for unfinished basements.
Our team also provides additional insulation services, including Bora foam insulation, which is both cost-effective and moisture-resistant for all basement renovation projects. Bora foam also is termite-resistant, which is why our team often recommends it for basement conversion projects. We provide the most relevant and practical insulation solution for your basement.
Foundation Crack Repair
Moisture can infiltrate your basement through the walls or the flour. Houses in wet locations often struggle with effective water removal around the foundation area, which can lead to cracks. Our team of experts ensures that no foundation waterproofing service is complete, filling all foundation cracks that are prone to let the moisture go through. This ensures your basement is protected from exterior water pressure from the soil. Additionally, it also strengthens your house structure.
Basement Water Removal
We have seen many homeowners worry about standing water in their basement. Standing water can be the result of water entering through open vents and windows wells or a leak. Our team provides a variety of solutions to tackle the issue in the long term and drain water effectively away from the basement. We believe that the installation of new gutters can help reduce water pressure on your foundation. We also focus our attention on equipping your basement with the most effective water drainage solution for your home, including grading and downspout extension installation.
Water Damage Repair
The presence of water in the basement is linked to a variety of damages to the structure and the integrity of your property. Our team is committed to repairing water damages and strengthening your basement permanently via:
- Professional mold remedial services
- Foundation repairs
- Cleaning and removal of favorable mold and pest factors
- Insulation replacement when it’s been corrupted by water
- Protection for electrical and plumbing units
Basement Dehumidifiers
Basements that are prone to accumulate condensation and excess moisture don’t always benefit from a draining solution. As such, we, at Sedona Waterproofing Solutions, can proceed to the installation of a basement dehumidifier that can reduce the air humidity. As part of their function, they can improve the overall health factors in the household and prevent dampness and cold from affecting your energy bills. Dehumidifiers require regular maintenance and filter replacement to maintain their performance. That’s why our experts offer an annual maintenance service to help you keep your basement dry.
Sump Pump Installation
For basements that are likely to get flooded or collect water despite repair works, we suggest installing a sump pump, which ensures the water can be pumped out and away from the basement. The pump keeps your home dry and protects the basement from future water infiltration. The installation may require the creation of trenches that can drain the water towards the system. Sedona Waterproofing Solutions offer an annual maintenance service for sump pump owners.
Vapor Barriers and Sealing
A vapor barrier is designed to prevent moisture from infiltrating your home via the basement. The vapor barrier is an addition to your basement insulation. It prevents the risks of condensation and mold spread, keeping the basement dry and the air clean.
Additionally, we also secure protective barriers with professional sealant. The typical basement sealing covers the floor and a few inches of the wall with a fully moisture-proof barrier. We also recommend encapsulation for full space cover, including walls and ceiling. In both cases, we use a professional sealant to hold the barriers in place.
Basement Waterproofing Costs
Each basement will have different requirements, as such the following factors can affect your basement waterproofing costs:
- Minor vs. major foundation crack repair
- Sump pump vs. dehumidifier
- Draining systems in place
- Encapsulation
- French drain installation
- Gutter installation
- Grading

A Wide Range of Basement Waterproofing Services
Sedona Waterproofing Solutions offers the right waterproofing services based on the different risks facing your basement. From groundwater infiltration to fault drainage, we look to the source to determine which direction our projects go in.
The most common solution is to excavate the ground around the basement. By creating trenches, we can install drain systems that lead to a sump pump. Water always looks for the path of least resistance, and our drain and sump pump systems create a path for it to flow into before safely pumping the water out, away from your property. Any water trying to get into your home will pump right back out.
Protecting Your Basement with Encapsulation
We can ensure that anyway water that attempts to make its way to your basement is redirected, but that doesn’t mean we ignore the need for protecting the space itself. With wet basement repair services, we can ensure that any material infiltrated by moisture is replaced or serviced so there are no lingering damp spots to worry about.
When your basement is clean of moisture and our other waterproofing solutions are in place, we will then ensure that it stays waterproof. We do this with waterproofing industry standard sealer liner that is applied to both the floor and the walls.

Brett StowersJune 7, 2024I had Sedona do some structural work to a water damaged band sill and joists December of 2023. Alan with Sedona was very professional and timely with all his communications and pricing. The crew onsite did a good job and completed the work in a timely manner.
Tia YangMay 15, 2024Well-deserved 5-star review! Absolutely incredible team from beginning to end! Quote Phase: Emily was responsive. They came out quickly and gave us a quote via email detailing the work and costs Pricing: Best prices for the work; we compared their quote apples-to-apples with 2 of their local competitors Scheduling Phase: Our work was scheduled 1 month out from the time they received payment Work Phase: The team was on top of communication throughout the whole process. Their electrician (Kevin) was late 1 day but was great with communication and very apologetic. We truly appreciate that they didn't rush to get the job done; Dan actually delayed the installation of the insulation to the crawl space because he recommended we give the products more time to dry. This, is professionalism! After Work Phase: Todd followed up with us for feedback. I told him that our humidity was high so he sent Darnell out to fix the issue the very next day. Above and Beyond: After all the work was done, I contacted Todd on a Sunday about some sitting water. He actually answered! He sent Dan out that week to talk to us about solutions and he was able to give us a quote that afternoon. Dan was extremely informative, professional and kind. Feedback to Sedona: Please allow us to make online payment at no charge or already include it in our quote **Update after 2 years** (5/15/24) Todd has been our main point of contact for our annual inspections. Todd is respectful and responsive. He provides pictures, updates and advice which really gives us a peace of mind. Thanks, Todd and Team at Sedona!

Cindy RatcliffJanuary 30, 2024Sedona Water Proofing was amazing. They responded quickly to our call (for help!) and within a week they were on the job. Travis and Jordan managed their team well and efficiently; they took time to answer any questions we had and thoroughly explained what the job entailed. The team worked long hours to get the job done in a timely manner for us. Travis did a final walk through with us and made sure we were comfortable and assured with the job they hade done. Would definitely recommend Sedona Water Proofing.
