Illustration

The house cross-section showing the six water entry paths, the crack-pattern diagrams on the crack triage page, and the Dry Cellar mark are original illustrations created for this site.

Data

Basement waterproofing and foundation repair cost averages cited on our reference page follow widely published national contractor-survey figures. New Hampshire frost depth is given as the commonly used design figure of approximately 48 inches; it varies with location, soil and snow cover, and your town's building official is the authority for a specific site. All other price ranges are our own and reflect typical Lakes Region residential work.
