Is Your Home At Risk Of Water Intrusion?

EVALUATE a water intrusion risk before it’s too late! Is your home 40 years old or older? Do you have a basement? Is your home on a hill? Have you or your neighbors recently changed a grade around your house? Are there any new apartments or housing developments built within last three years in your area? Are the gutters and downspouts functioning well? Have you noticed some cracks or settlements in the house foundations or steam walls? If you answered yes to any of these questions, your home could be at risk of water intrusion – with devastating results.

 

The best protection against such a disaster is PREVENTION! Contact us for consultation!

Is Your Home Flooded? Act Quickly!

Has water flooded your home? This is a true emergency and must be addressed at once! Don’t leave wet carpets or floors unattended. Water damaged areas must be dried within 24 to 48 hours to prevent mold growth. Moreover, once water has eroded a path into your home it is unstoppable. Reoccurring flooding will occur and the resultant mold and fungi growth are now your number one concern. If you want to save a lot of money and time, don’t call “Water Damage Restoration Services”. They only suck up water and dry the area temporarily leaving you with a hefty bill (sometimes 5-digit one) and still leaving you with a headache of unresolved problems.  Run to a local hardware store or rental place and get blowers and humidifiers. This would save you money that you will need to use for installing a permanent solution.

There Is A Permanent Solution For You!

The key to mold control is moisture control. Wet Basement Services combines simple water redirection with state-of-the-art drainages and membranes to control water intrusions permanently. We have a 100% success rate in extreme water abatement. We’ve helped clients who suffered for decades from winter flooding of their basements. Our system desaturates liquefied soils under your house footings and basement floor slab. This solution is different than most drainage systems of our local competitors, which act only like a “band aid”, and not address real sources of the issue you have. We will be happy to elaborate on it when we meet together when you schedule your Free Inspection.

 

Our systems will cure your headache PERMANENTLY!

We offer a lifetime transferable warranty on our interior waterproofing solutions to ensure your family’s protection, health, and peace of mind.

Interior Waterproofing Solutions

Our interior waterproofing system, uses membranes and French drains placed along foundation footings and basement steam walls, thereby encapsulating the basement from the outside. We place new drainage pipes at the side of the footings and cover them with P-gravel and drainage fabric, which redirect water to the exterior by using gravity or a sump pump. This is a highly effective and cost-efficient way to control water intrusions. Interior waterproofing can be done faster than exterior waterproofing.

Exterior Waterproofing Solutions

Our exterior waterproofing consists of excavating foundation walls to the bottom of the footings. Once the area is excavated, the walls are covered with exterior membranes, like Delta or Mira drains, which expand drainage areas to all layers of the soil profile. In addition, we may seal the dry walls with waterproofing solution. And at the side of the footings, we install new drainage pipes covered with P-gravel and drainage fabric.

WET BASEMENT SERVICES provides moisture and mold control in the Greater Seattle area with benefits which are unapparelled to systems of our competitors. 

Shield your home from water intrusion for life.  Guaranteed!

 

Our proprietary  Extreme Water Abandonment (EWA) system –  provides a permanent and complete water control solution, with a lifetime guarantee. We offer basement flooding and waterproofing services in the greater Seattle area, including Redmond, Kirkland, Bellevue, Renton, and other suburbs.

 

 

  • Waterproofing basements
  • Relieving hydrostatic pressure under concrete slabs and foundations
  • Restoring basement walls and floors

 

We believe in educating our clients so they can make informed decisions. Here’s a summary of the key benefits you’ll receive when choosing our system:

 

  • Superior Drainage System: We use building code-compliant 4″ PVC piping (unlike many competitors who use smaller, less effective drains). This ensures optimal water flow and prevents clogging. We also include vertical wall drains to protect against unexpected leaks, safeguarding your finished basement and preventing mold growth. Our system is installed not just in the concrete, but also in the underlying soil, ensuring complete desaturation and long-term stability.

 

  • Professional Concrete Removal: We use wet-cutting vacuum concrete saws to cleanly separate concrete, preventing micro-cracking and maintaining the structural integrity of your basement. This crucial step is often overlooked by competitors, potentially leading to future water intrusion and mold.

 

  • Expert Mold Remediation: If mold is present in your basement, we have the knowledge and experience to handle it safely and effectively. We adhere to strict health and safety standards to prevent cross-contamination and offer certified laboratory testing.

 

  • Safe Dust Control: We prioritize your health and safety by using advanced dust control measures, including encapsulation, dust knockdowns, shop vacuums, air scrubbers, and axial fans. This minimizes exposure to harmful silica dust, a known carcinogen, and keeps your home clean during the process.

 

  • Honest and Reliable Warranty: We offer a lifetime transferable warranty and encourage you to compare it to others. We believe in transparency and fulfilling our obligations. We are happy to provide client references and reviews to demonstrate our commitment to honoring our warranties.

 

 

We understand basement waterproofing is a significant investment. We encourage you to consider the quality of work, not just the price. Our system is designed for long-term effectiveness and peace of mind.

Flooded basement? These are your guys!

Flooded basement? These are your guys! With the record setting rain in Seattle in the last year, we unfortunately experienced a bunch of flooding in our finished basement and were left very unsure of how to manage; we reached out to several “waterproofing” companies and we received various responses from plumbers, foundation contractors and so-called “water cleanup experts (which were vendors that relied on a large wet vac to clean up water but provided no actual solve).

 

After speaking to a dozen companies (and having half a dozen of them swing by) we were almost set on selecting a vendor who required that we demo the walls of our entire basement, in walks Jerzy from Wet Basement Services! Asides from explaining EXACTLY HOW he was going to fix the issue, he also brought a presentation deck that outlined the science OF WHY this was occurring in the first place. He then directed us to his website to see detailed photos of the construction process with further information regarding water table and hydrostatic pressure.

 

To prep, we simply had our own contractor partially demo HALF of our finished basement. The construction process went smoothly! Asides from trenching and installing a proper drainage system, the crew also installed a sump pump. John, the PM/Lead on our project, was polite, personable and most importantly, made himself available to answer calls and all of my questions.

 

He and his crew came in and did all the work over the course of three (3) days and they left the jobsite cleaner than when they began. With an owner lifetime guarantee, I’d say they have one of the best warranties in the business. Here’s to seeing how well it went the next time we get some major rain – but I have no doubt that in the unlikely event of any issue, John and Jerzy would offer assistance without reservations.

I couldn’t be happier with the exceptional service…

I couldn’t be happier with the exceptional service and outstanding results I received from Wet Basement Services.

 

I am a first time home buyer and got myself in a pickle where I purchased a very old house that had a previous water leaking issues in the basement. As someone who had very little knowledge on homes and understanding this was a huge issue, I received estimates from around 10 different vendors. I was surprised on how little knowledge a lot of these vendors had on water intrusion and many of these vendors suggested solutions that go against city codes. John from Water Basement Services came by and his knowledge blew everyone else out of the water. Other contractors asked me where and how the water was coming in (which I had no idea) while John was able to provide his expert opinion on the cause and was able to talk about his solution and even was able to explain why his solution was better than competitors I brought up. John cares about the quality of his work and understands that he is supporting the community in Seattle vs other companies who just want to get the job done and get out.

 

I am very satisfied with the waterproofing work (Interior French Drain + Sump Pump) that they installed in the basement. I also had them do some framing (drywall) and help get me closer to finishing my basement. Jerzy, the owner who is great guy, also installed a beautiful ledge surrounding the framing and they also installed trim on the stairs which is beyond what I asked for.

 

My basement is now a usable, dry space, and I owe it all to their expertise. It gives me a great peace of mind and helps me sleep a little better at night. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of basement waterproofing services.

My family hired Wet Basement Services last year…

My family hired Wet Basement Services last year when our basement flooded after a particularly heavy rain storm. After calling numerous companies (all of who were booked out for weeks) I was so lucky to find Wet Basement Services. They were busy as well, but they were able to come out after a couple of weeks. John quickly identified the issue and recommended the best system for us that also fell within our budget.

 

Within a couple of weeks John was able to install the system, and it kept our basement dry for the past year!!! Jerzy also recently sent a follow up email to customers reminding us to check our systems ahead of the upcoming rainy season. Unfortunately our main pump appeared to have stopped but John quickly returned to our home to inspect and replace our main pump. If Jerzy hadn’t reminded us to check our systems, we wouldn’t have found out our main pump had malfunctioned until it rained again. The great thing is our backup pump (also recommended by WBS) was working just great the entire time, so it was comforting knowing we would have been fine anyway.

 

Thank you so much to Jerzy, John, and the Wet Basement team for your excellent work and customer service!

We had WBS come out in early 2022…
We had WBS come out in early 2022 to install a sump pump and drain tiles in our basement during a house remodel. They were quick and accommodating to our needs and explained everything to us as they worked. Our house is on a high water table (which we did not know when installing the pump), so during heavy rainfall in December of 2023 we noticed the concrete where the tiles were installed was wet and that the pump was not keeping up with the amount of water coming in. I called Jerzy immediately and Jon was at our place the same day to take a look. He thought he had fixed the issue by adjusting the pump so the floater wouldn’t get stuck, but it turns out the issue was greater than that. In Jan of 2024 we noticed that again, the pump was not able to keep up with the incoming water flow, so I phoned Jerzy and he came out himself to take a look. He deemed the pipe leading the water out of the house was too small and was creating a bottleneck for the water to exit the pump well. Jerzy came back out a few days later to install a bigger pipe himself and did this all as a complimentary service! We are so grateful for this service and commitment to his customers. We highly recommend Wet Basement Services to anyone looking to solve water issues in their basement. Gives us peace of mind that we don’t have to worry about mold or damage in the future.

Hi Jerzy and John!

Hi Jerzy and John!

 

We don’t always do a great job letting people know when something is working well…unfortunately, we always let them know when it’s not.

 

So, we wanted to reach out to let you know that ALL your systems installed in June of 2022 at our home in Wallingford are functioning well under pressure…literally 😉

 

We’ve heard, but are not overwhelmed by the sound, of both submerged pumps working to move water from the two basement locations and have joyfully noticed a solid stream (of water) coming from the curb drain at the west end of our sidewalk, taking care of both the garage gravity system as well as the south retaining wall.

 

So…for two full years, no flooding. The basement is safe.
Bravo!

Had a great experience with these guys…

Had a great experience with these guys; they were up front about our various options, how disruptive they were, and the total cost. I felt like I had all the information I needed to make a good, informed decision. The actual work was done exactly on schedule and for a very reasonable price. Very happy with everything: ease of getting a quote, options offered, speed and quality of work, just all around a great experience. Thanks folks!

 

Edit: it’s now March we’ve gone through our first winter, and a pretty wet one at that, since the work they did. It held up great and we didn’t have any trouble with water intruding into the basement. No leaks, nothing. Very happy with the results here, and EXTREMELY grateful for the peace of mind this work affords me. Thanks again folks!

I highly recommend this group…
I highly recommend this group. They took care of water intrusion in our basement. They took the time to studied the problem, and in our case went the extra effort to figure out how to problem solve because we had a challenging set up with floor radiant heating. They also gave me a competitive bid. Make sure you ask them to quote for the backup battery for the pump, which I recommend.

Having my basement fixed by Jersey and John…

Having my basement fixed by Jersey and John was one of the best decisions I’ve made since becoming a homeowner. Every time it rains, I’m so relieved we don’t have to worry about the basement retaining water.

 

Jersey was so quick with his estimate, and John and his team were thorough, reassuring and easy to communicate with throughout the process.

 

I’m so grateful for the amazing work that was done. Best money we’ve ever spent.
