Wet Basement Causes
Interior Water Leak
We check for leaks around showers, toilets, sinks, dishwashers and pipes
Improper Grading
The ground should slope away from your house so water drains away from the foundation.
Missing or Faulty Gutters and Downspouts
If they are not correctly installed or are clogged, water will back up.
Foundation Cracks
Cracks are an entry point for water.
Poor or Absent Drain Tile and Sump Pit
The absence of a drainage system or a non-working one can cause issues.
Condensation
Basement condensation transpires when warm, humid air comes into contact with the cooler surfaces of the basement walls and floor, leading to the accumulation of moisture.

How Much does Basement Waterproofing Costs?
Many factors influence the cost of basement repair and waterproofing.
Size of the Basement
The size of the area directly affects the amount of materials needed and hours to complete the project, all influencing the final cost.
Extent of Water Damage
Repairing seeping walls is less expensive than extensive flooding. The degree of water damage affects the cost.
Interior vs. Exterior Solutions
Interior fixes are easier to implement. Exterior repairs sometimes involve the need for an excavator and specialized equipment. Dry Otter technicians only work on interior repairs.
Overall Home Age
The age of your home matters. If your house was built using outdated building codes, you might need to bring it up to code before waterproofing and repairs are done.
Materials Used
The choice of sealant method impacts the total cost of basement repair. Our technicians provide several options so you can compare the pros and cons of each choice.

What Our Customers Are Saying
EXCELLENT Based on 367 reviews Posted on Dylan CallicuttTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had Dry Otter Waterproofing complete a full crawlspace transformation at my home, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the results. Michael, Will, Josh, and Adam were outstanding from start to finish. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and clear communication made the entire process smooth and stress-free. They installed a sump pump, dehumidifier, full encapsulation, and several other improvements to protect my home from moisture issues. The crew worked efficiently, kept me informed at every step, and treated my property with great respect. The difference in my crawlspace is incredible — clean, dry, and well-protected. If you’re looking for a reliable and knowledgeable team for waterproofing or crawlspace work, I highly recommend Dry Otter. Michael, Will, Josh, and Adam did an exceptional job, and I’m extremely satisfied with the outcome.

Dry Otter recently completed the full climate control and encapsulation of our crawlspace, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. Huge shout-out to Tyler, Will, and Josh — an absolutely fabulous team. They were professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly easy to work with.
