These terms explain, in plain language, how waterproofnear.com works and what it does not do. By using this site, you accept these terms.
What this site is
WaterproofNear is a free referral service for non-emergency basement and crawl space waterproofing. We connect people with independent local providers. We are not a contractor. We do not perform waterproofing work, and we do not send our own crew to a home.
WaterproofNear is a free referral service. We are not a contractor. When you call, you are connected to an independent local provider who may pay us for the referral. Providers are responsible for their own licensing, pricing and work.
General information only
The information on this site is general information. It describes common causes of dampness and seepage, common methods, and questions worth asking a provider. It is not professional advice for a specific home, and it does not replace an inspection by a qualified provider. Conditions vary by home, soil, climate, and local rules, so a method described here may not fit your situation.
Work is agreed directly with the provider
Any inspection, proposal, price, schedule, or work is agreed directly between you and the independent provider. You are free to ask questions, compare proposals, seek a second opinion, or decline work you do not want. A referral is a starting point, not a commitment, and it does not lock you into a job.
What we are not responsible for
We are not responsible for a provider's work, pricing, or licensing. We do not set prices. We do not supervise work after a referral. We do not claim a provider holds a specific license, and we do not publish reviews, ratings, or job photos. Ask the provider for license details that apply in your city or state, and confirm them with the relevant local office before work starts. This site covers non-emergency work only. If water is rising fast, if wiring is wet, or if anyone faces an immediate safety risk, contact local emergency services first.
Privacy
For how we handle details you share for a referral, see our privacy policy at /privacy/. We collect only details you share to request a referral, and those details go to an independent local provider so that provider can contact you about an inspection.
How to reach us
Reach us through the contact page (/contact/). Use it to ask about a referral or about these terms. If a detail on this site looks wrong or out of date, tell us through the contact page so we can check it.
