Cost of Waterproofing
When deciding to waterproof your basement it is very important to consider a budget. Depending on the area that needs to be waterproofed it can be very expensive, each job is unique, and the cost depends on what you need to be done, and the size and depth of the basement that needs to be waterproofed. Some problems are minor while others are major and need more work to be done. Minor basement fixes can cost anywhere from $500 to $6000, including crack injections and repairs. When choosing waterproofing options ensure to go over all options with your estimator because sometimes choosing the cheapest solution is not always the best solution to the problem and in the end, you might be spending more money than you bargained for because the cheaper option you went with was just a temporary fix.
