Chris Snyder, Jake, and Jon of Baker Waterproofing did an outstanding job on the installation of our system! They were superbly professional, courteous, and helpful to us. They worked hard, quickly, and with as minimal disruption to our household as possible. There was one spot where they had to bore through the exterior wall through very recent, expensive, and high quality stone facing… they did a FANTASTIC job of that, totally minimizing any damage or disfigurement to the facing. We were extremely grateful for that! We thought the job would take all day but they finished before that and did an admirable job of completely cleaning up the work site. We heartily recommend them!

I hired Baker's Waterproofing when a recent plumber found a leak possibly in my foundation and recommended them to me. Baker's initial inspection uncovered that my foundation was built of cinderblocks and was leaking water from the hill behind my home as well as groundwater from below. They scheduled the work and sent out Victor and Miguel to complete a full waterproofing, French drain, pump installation and backup system. From start to finish of this project with Baker's Waterproofing, every person I spoke to was extremely professional, everything was explained clearly and concisely, and pricing was not only competitive, but extremely reasonable for the quality and quantity of work completed. Special thanks to the incredibly hardworking, polite, and professional Victor and Miguel. I highly recommend asking for them by name to ensure your work is done quickly but completely.

Josh C & Omar did an excellent job on my parking pad. The guys ultimate professionals, explained everything in detail and as work began Josh came to get me to discuss the situation with a particular section that was going to be problematic. He offered a few options, I explained my main concern was further loss of surface and tripping hazards for myself or anyone on property. I told him I would trust his professional judgment. And that was a great decision, the result exceeded what I thought would be possible. Josh & Omar kept a clean work area, and communicated with me as things progressed. I highly recommend Bakers from start to finish top notch service. From text, email, and phone I knew every step of the way. Bob did my initial assessment and he too was amazing. The level of time, and explanation about the process again amazing experience.

Awesome customer service! I worked with Bob Liga to get a quote for lifting some older concrete slabs. Super friendly. Very thorough and patient with all my questions. While I wasn't able to move forward with the project due to circumstances outside our control, Bob still made sure I understood their process and what was occurring both in- and outside my home. Would recommend to family and friends!

How We Stabilize Your Foundation

Foundations fail for a variety of reasons. With each situation being unique, there is not a simple one-size-fits-all solution. This is why we meet with you at your property and spend the time needed to properly diagnose the problem, provide the best solution that fits your specific needs, and make sure you understand why. We can use different foundation repair methods to provide you with the best solution for your property.

Wall Stability Solutions

Permanently Stabilize Walls

What We Do

Your walls are the first place to look for signs of foundation problems. Vertical cracks can show up in drywall, and stair-step cracks run down cinder block basement walls. Neither of these are purely cosmetic—they’re structural too. At Baker’s Waterproofing, stabilizing walls is the first thing we do to restore your home. Using tools personalized to your home, we anchor your walls into alignment and reinforce them to stand strong.

What We Use

Solid Floors, Strong Homes

Permanently Stabilize Floor Framing System

What We Do

When foundation problems strike, you’re going to feel it in your floors. Sagging, bouncing, uneven floors—all little issues telling you to act fast, and with Baker’s Waterproofing, you can. Any issue with your floors is a problem we want to address permanently. The worry stops with us, and that’s because we give you industry-leading supports fitted to your foundation to put an end to sagging, uneven floors.

What We Use

Foundation Fortification

Permanently Stabilize Perimeter Foundation

What We Do

Our team will ensure ongoing floor stability by using reinforcements, adjustable jacks, and expert engineering to ensure a strong and enduring foundation.

What We Use

We help protect everything you love, starting with your home’s foundation.

Contact Baker’s Waterproofing for Foundation and Basement Repair Today! 

Don’t allow foundation problems to compromise your home’s security, comfort, or value. Whether you’re dealing with floor cracks, wall cracks, or foundation settlement, we’re here to help. Taking action today can save you costly repairs down the line. 

Our dedicated customer service team is ready to guide you through our array of services and arrange for a free inspection

During this in-depth assessment, our certified inspectors will examine the specific needs of your foundation. They will pinpoint the root causes of any issues you have and suggest a customized plan of action that aligns with your goals and budget.  

Reach out to us today to start your journey toward a safer, healthier home.

FAQs

Generally, homeowner’s insurance does not cover foundation repair expenses. However, if the damage is caused by a covered event, like a burst pipe, your insurance may assist with the repair costs. Consult your insurance provider to better understand your coverage. 

Absolutely! In most situations, you can continue living in your home while the foundation is being repaired.

The duration of foundation repairs depends on factors like the extent of the issue and the chosen repair technique. Usually, after the free initial inspection, repairs are completed within 1-2 days, and you won’t need to leave your home during the process.
