No answer on the site means "no information yet", never a guess.
Every listing starts from public business data for North Carolina companies filed under foundation and waterproofing work. We kept businesses that are open and have Google reviews, merged duplicates, and left out roofers, plumbers, insulation companies and other trades that list waterproofing only as a side service.
Then we read each company's own website and recorded the services it names, such as wall anchors, piers, drain tile, sump pumps or crawl space encapsulation. When a site does not say, the listing says so instead of guessing.

A damp crawl space, a crack in a foundation wall or a floor that has started to sag is stressful, and the first company you call may not be the right one. Some companies listed here mostly keep water out. Others mostly fix foundations that have moved. Many do both. This guide covers what to look for before you sign anything.
Many North Carolina homes sit over a crawl space, so moisture is a common starting point. NC State Extension says the soil in a crawl space should be covered by a plastic vapor barrier of at least 6 mil, that humidity should stay below 60 percent, and that roof water should drain away from the foundation walls. Walls that crack, floors that sag or doors that stick point to a structural problem that calls for piers, supports or wall repair. The NC Geological Survey notes that expansive soils can occur in almost any part of the state, and that their swelling and shrinking can crack walls and foundations and leave floors uneven.
Weather plays a part too. The state averages about 49.6 inches of rain a year, a storm at hurricane strength reaches North Carolina about once every three years, and Hurricane Florence dropped 20 to 36 inches on eastern North Carolina in 2018.
North Carolina requires a state general contractor license for any project valued at $40,000 or more. Smaller jobs do not need that license, so ask every company what license it holds and look it up on the state board's license search. The listings on this site show whether a company states a license on its own website. This site does not check licenses.
Under state law, work under $40,000 in a single-family home usually needs no building permit, but repairing or replacing load-bearing structures is one of the exceptions. Ask the company who pulls the permit, and check with your county or city inspections office. If the job means digging outside, North Carolina law requires notice to NC811 at least three full working days before digging starts. Call 811.
Each listing shows the services a company names on its own website: foundation repair, crawl space repair, basement waterproofing, piers, crack repair, sump pumps, drain tile, concrete lifting and more. A service under "No information yet" means the company's site does not say. Call and ask.
Ask what they think is causing the problem and how they know. Ask what the warranty covers, whether it is in writing, and whether it transfers if you sell the house. Get at least two written estimates that describe the same scope of work.
Each listing is an open North Carolina business with Google reviews that does foundation repair, basement waterproofing or crawl space work. Roofers, plumbers and other trades that only list waterproofing as a side service were left out. Owners can claim a listing to fix details or add photos.
No. A basic listing is free. Companies can pay for a featured spot or a premium listing, and those are always marked as featured.
No. A listing shows whether a company states a license on its own website, but nothing here is verified. Check the contractor's license or registration with the official agency before you hire.
Waterproofing keeps water out of a basement or crawl space, with drain tile, sump pumps, crack sealing or encapsulation. Foundation repair fixes walls and footings that have moved, with wall anchors, braces or piers. Many companies here do both. Each listing shows which services the company names on its own website.
North Carolina requires a state general contractor license for any project valued at $40,000 or more. Ask every company what license it holds and look it up on the NC Licensing Board for General Contractors' license search before you sign.
