Looking for help with waterproofing? Best Home Partner is a matching service. Tell us what the project involves and we pass your request to up to 3 independent businesses that do waterproofing work and list your area. Those businesses contact you directly, and any agreement is between you and them. We do not carry out waterproofing work ourselves.
Water enters after every heavy rain, efflorescence appears on walls, or the crawl space smells damp. Problems of this kind often get worse, and more expensive to fix, when they are left.
We don't publish prices, because a job can't be priced properly without someone seeing it. The total usually depends on the scope of work, the materials chosen, how easy the site is to work on, the condition of what is already there, and local labour rates. This work is usually priced per project. Our Waterproofing guide explains each factor and how to compare quotes.
Interior systems manage water; exterior systems stop it. Make sure the bid matches the actual water source.
Costs in Chicago run about 10% above the national average for this trade, which is why the range at the top of this page is adjusted rather than generic.
Permit requirements vary by municipality. Ask anyone quoting your project who pulls the permit and whether the cost is included — in IL the answer should always be the business doing the work, not you.
Answer a few questions and we will pass your waterproofing request to independent local businesses.
