Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about basement waterproofing or LaPan Waterproofing’s services? Below, we’ve answered some of the most common inquiries to help you make informed decisions about protecting your home or business.

  • Is this a franchise?

    No, we are a local business, and we treat our customers like friends and family. We are not a massive corporation, we are part of this community, and want to do our best to keep this community happy.

  • Why should I care about basement waterproofing?

    A wet basement might seem like a small problem, but it can lead to much bigger ones. A leaking basement, or a basement that generates a lot of moisture, can attract toxic black mold or cause structural damage to your home’s foundation. A leaky basement also runs the risk of soaking any belongings you store there, increasing the risk of black mold. Basement waterproofing can stabilize your home’s property value and provide great peace of mind. 

  • Why do basements leak?

    There is a multitude of reasons why basements leak. These include:


    • Malfunctioning or lack of footer tiles.
    • Cracks in the walls or floor that allow water through.
    • Hydrostatic pressure building up under the floor or upon the walls.
    • Underground springs.
    • High humidity that causes condensation.
    • Poor sealant on the outside walls or no sealant on the outside walls.
    • Improperly installed waterproofing.
    • Leaks from sweating pipes in the basement.
    • Leaks through basement windows.

  • Does basement waterproofing increase home value?

    The simple answer: yes, it does. Buyers will not want to purchase a home that has a leaky basement, nor will they want to pay a regular market price for one. Showing that you’ve waterproofed your basement will ensure buyers that the home is protected, and they won’t have to worry about any leaks in the future, allowing you the potential to get more money in the sale. A qualified home inspector will see the signs immediately, alert potential buyers of the cause, and warn them not to buy until it’s fixed. This means money out of your pocket and a rushed timeline to complete the project. Instead, think ahead and waterproof your basement now before putting it on the market.

  • Can you provide us with references?

    We can absolutely provide you with references to former clients. In our opinion, it's extremely important to learn more about a company and guarantee that they are the perfect fit for your waterproofing project. We can assure you that all of our clients have been completely satisfied and would be glad to work with us again and again.

  • What will your services cost?

    It depends on your property and your own unique specifications. We take more time determining a realistic price for service levels that meet your expectations for quality and customer service. We don’t want to provide you with services that are not needed, nor do we want to exclude services that are required by your project.



  • Do you offer clean out installation?

    Yes, we do. We can install clean outs which allow for easy access for flushing out your drainage systems. These clean out systems help to extend the life of your drainage system by removing unwanted dirt and debris that can otherwise clog and get caught in your submersible pump causing it to wear out quickly.



  • Anything I can do myself to correct the problem?

    Depending on the situation, correcting the problem yourself is not a good option. You want a trained professional basement waterproofing expert to take care of the problem. If our trained inspector feels the problem is minimal, he will give you tips and ideas as to how you can take care of it yourself. However, if the problem is one that would need professional services, he will review all of the options available to you so you know your home is in the best condition possible.

  • LaPan Waterproofing being the better contractors

    20+ YEARS EXPERIENCE  LaPan Waterproofing was established in 1997 by the owner and operator John W. LaPan. After working for “The Big Waterproofing Company” for a decade, Mr. LaPan realized that his techniques, though working great, were not being applied by all employees. Being a perfectionist, he knew he could provide consistency and quality to all customers – all the time – by doing it himself. He found a reliable, dedicated staff to work with. Since then, all systems are working perfectly. We pride ourselves on having no callbacks due to problems with the system.




    25 YEAR TRANSFERABLE WARRANTY   LaPans 25 Year Warranty provides peace of mind that once the system is installed you will have a dry basement. The area we service will not get water again due to gravity keeping water in the drainage system and our “clean outs” giving us the ability to keep it from clogging. The system will truly last the lifetime of the basement. We had installed a system in a house then it burned down, they rebuilt the house and the system is still working perfectly!   Another home was torn down from the basement up and rebuilt and the system we installed still works fine.
