An independent referral service

Royal Oak Basement Waterproofing exists to give Royal Oak homeowners a straight answer about basement water and one introduction to a local contractor, instead of a lead form that sells your number to five companies at once. It is a small, independent website with no connection to any contractor's brand.

From your request to an estimate

You describe the problem in the form.
We pass the request to one independent waterproofing contractor who serves Royal Oak. Not five. One.
The contractor contacts you and gives a free estimate. You decide; there is no obligation.
The contractor may pay us a referral fee. You never pay us anything, and the fee does not change your price.

Our ground rules

No fake reviews. Any testimonial you ever see here will be from a real homeowner who agreed to be quoted.
No fake office. We have no storefront in Royal Oak; the contractor comes to your home.
Local facts on the Royal Oak page are sourced (Census, USDA soil survey, National Weather Service, FEMA, city permit pages) and dated so you can check them.
We recommend you verify any contractor's license at michigan.gov/lara before signing.
We say plainly on every page that we are a referral service, not a contractor, and we hold no contractor license.
