This job study will focus on a job from April 6, 2018, out of Independence, MO. When Keith’s crew arrived, they talked with the homeowner and explained the process and reviewed what would happen during the project. They also answered any questions that were still left to be asked. This was a waterproofing job without foundation damage repair.

Foundation Drainage

Keith’s crew first installed fifty-seven feet of our Basement Guardian System along the east, north, and south wall. This is a system which is designed for stopping water from coming into the basement by managing the water in the soil and directing it to a sump pump to be removed from under the floor. We installed a 1/3HP Sump Pump as well here to redirect any extra water that should come in along the southeast corner of the home. We installed a small drain that connects to the system underneath the doorway will help control water. The system comes with a Lifetime Warranty and you can transfer it to the new property owner. This is a great investment for your home because not only will you have one less thing to stress about, but you’ll save yourself some trouble if you ever decide to sell your home.

Waterproofing

After the job was completed, Keith and his crew cleaned up the area and answered any questions the homeowner may have had.

Sump pump

Waterproofing is essential if you want your foundation to stay safe, dry, and stable for the rest of its life span. There are small things that you can do yourself to keep water away from the foundation. These include making sure that the gutters are at least five feet away from the foundation, that you have a proper slope next to the home (i.e. water is not pooling next to the foundation), and that you are checking your home for cracks and water damage in the foundation walls. All of these steps, plus regular maintenance and checkups, will help keep your home safe and stable.

Satisfied Customer Reviews

Camden came and did a thorough inspection of our foundation and explained the findings well. I felt he was honest with his recommendations and did not try to convince us to do something that wasn't necessary.
Will use KC Waterproofing and Foundation Repair again and highly recommend.
Thank you Cam!
We recently had foundation repairs with multiple piers and poly-fill. Not only were they professional on-site, but one of the employees even noticed a package sitting outside starting to get rained on so they placed it in my mudroom. They kept me informed through the process and ensured I understood each repair prior to commencing.
Fran was incredible! He was prompt and very knowledgeable about our questions regarding our foundation. He showed us that we already had a bracing system and our foundation was secure. I would recommend him to anyone!
Fran Heisinger came out and gave a detailed and thorough inspection of our foundation. His experience, service and expertise assured us if we needed additional work, his crew and company could do the job. Highly recommend.
We recently used KC Waterproofing to do our foundation, put in an IBeam and jack post, multiple piers. When I say these guys did an excellent job from start to finish… I can’t even express it enough. Very professional. Very clean work. They cleaned up so well you can’t even tell we just had major work done. This was a week and a half project. The entire crew has just been so amazing in this hard time. I will forever recommend and be using them for future projects. I don’t quite remember every one’s name but the ones I do, Cam, Kyle, Jacob, Jesse, Gerry, Connor, you all were amazing and fantastic job. Start to finish!
The team showed up exactly when they were supposed to. They kept us informed with everything they were doing! The entire experience was excellent‼️
Mario came out to check the sump pump. After cleaning the pit out and checking both the main and backup pump he wiped everything done and left the area cleaner than when he got there. Very friendly and knowledgeable guy!
We recently had KC Waterproofing out at our home in North Kansas City, and I cannot say enough great things about Ryan Marshall and his team (Austin & Jacob). They worked at our property over the week of July 17/2025 - and absolutely blew us away with their professionalism, work ethic, and transparency.

Ryan took the time to thoroughly explain the problems we were facing, what caused them, and exactly how they were going to fix them. His honesty and willingness to go the extra mile truly set him apart.

Ryan and his assistant worked hard, were respectful of our home, and made sure everything was done right the first time. It's rare these days to find that level of care and craftsmanship. Because of professionals like Ryan, we’ll continue to turn to KC Waterproofing for future needs.

Highly recommend this company—especially if you get the chance to work with Ryan and his crew! When it comes to foundation issues we will always recommend KC Waterproofing. They have been in the business, are trusted, and will do the job correctly.
We are very happy with the service we received from KC Waterproofing.
We had a very good experience with KC Waterproofing foundation repair on our house in south Kansas City in February and highly recommend you give them an opportunity to look at your foundation for an estimate and any work to be done.
