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 If your house was built using outdated building codes, you might need to bring it up to code before waterproofing and repairs are done.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 414 reviews Posted on Reg KingTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We needed to have our crawl space "updated" in order to feel good about handing over the home to a new owner after 38 years! The service prior to the sale was thorough, informative and substantiated the costs of each part of the process. When the crew arrived on-site they were prompt, held a consistent clean work area, did a very neat "top drawer" job! Most of all they respected all of our property which is very important when bringing in outside agents! We appreciate the ownership and the young men who completed the work.Posted on David DouglasTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Trey Moore, a Dry Otter tech came to our house on 6/3/26 for an annual review. He was punctual, courteous, and thorough.Posted on Joyce KluttzTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an excellent experience with everyone who worked under our house. The initial inspection done by Mike revealed many things we didn't know, and the report was presented in a way I could understand. The drainage system was done first and fast, followed by a goodly amount of joist and sill repair, professionally done. The encapsulation was done by William and Josh, who did great work and made several trips to our house to make sure we were satisfied. It looks good under there. The new electric lights and switches will make future drain cleaning and pest inspections much easier than before.Posted on Donald NewmanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Outstanding performance. Arrived on time and worked all day. Completed encapsulation on time. Price was competitive. John, Corey, Desmond, Adam, Trey and Patrick were very professional and maintained communications with me. Always knew the status of the project. Great crew all around. Highly recommend Dry Otter for the Denver Area encapsulation. Crawlspace is great.Posted on ScottTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dry Otter has provided me with excellent, professional service since reaching out to them to upgrade my crawl space. Their competent service and technical expertise was always helpful. Also, their response to any questions or help was always met in a very timely manner. I want to call out specifically Adam, Trey, and Heather for all the assistance they provided. They went "above and beyond". I would recommend Dry Otter (and have numerous times) to anyone needing help with waterproofing services. Again, thank you Adam, Trey, and Heather...Posted on Damien KalacTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Thank you!Posted on KathrynTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Contacted dry otter for installing a dehumidifier and encapsulation, they promptly scheduled an estimate and were willing to work with me about what I could accommodate in terms of budget. The service was scheduled quickly (about 2 weeks). The crew, Will and Josh (under the Denver NC location), were very communicative and let me know of their arrival time and updates through the day. They were very professional, timely, and friendly. The work completed was very professional and well done. I would 10/10 recommend them to anyone looking for crawl space services!Posted on Fran EarlTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. troy was every good , he change the battery in the monitor and answer all my
