Hidden Springs sits tucked against the foothills northwest of Boise, a planned community where stucco and stone homes step down slopes of decomposed granite. The village center, with its white picket fences and front porches, feels a world away from the valley floor, but the drainage problems are pure Treasure Valley foothills.

Homeowners in 83714 call Boise Waterproofing because runoff from the hills above finds every weak spot in a foundation. Whether you are near the Hidden Springs Village Center or up a switchback on the ridge, we know how water moves through this ground.

Waterproofing Us in Hidden Springs (83714)

The terrain here is the story. Homes are built on decomposed granite that sheds water fast until it hits a foundation wall, then it pools. Spring snowmelt and summer cloudbursts send sheets of water down the slopes, and without proper grading and a French drain, that water ends up against your basement wall. We see a lot of exterior basement waterproofing and foundation crack repair in Hidden Springs because the freeze-thaw cycle opens cracks that were hairline in August. The soil also moves, so bowing wall repair and carbon fiber straps come up more than in the flat parts of Boise. Tight lots and steep driveways mean access matters, and we plan excavation around retaining walls and landscaping that homeowners want left alone.

Our team has worked these foothill streets long enough to know which fixes hold and which just move the problem. We are a dedicated basement waterproofing specialist, not a general foundation firm or a plumber, and we tell you plainly when simple crack sealing is enough and when hydrostatic pressure means an interior drain tile system is the better answer than exterior excavation.

How a Job Works in Hidden Springs

Step 1: You call (208) 314-5276 and we schedule a free basement inspection. We walk the basement and the exterior, check the grading, downspout extensions, and any sign of efflorescence or a weeping crack, and we explain what we find in plain terms.

Step 2: We set a date and do the work. In Hidden Springs, that often means coordinating with HOA rules on visible exterior changes and pulling permits from the local building department for structural repair or egress window cutting. We plan excavation around tight access and steep grade so we do not tear up more of your yard than necessary.

Step 3: We clean up, haul away debris, and walk the job with you. We leave your property clean and show you how the sump pump, check valve, and discharge line should be maintained.

Pricing in Hidden Springs reflects the foothill conditions. Foundation crack repair starts at $450, sump pump installation at $1,200, and battery backup sump pumps at $900. Interior drain tile runs from $50 per linear foot, French drain installation from $25 per linear foot, and exterior basement waterproofing from $95 per linear foot. Basement waterproofing projects start at $2,500, foundation waterproofing at $3,500, and bowing wall repair at $600. The final number depends on the length of wall, access, soil conditions, and how quickly you need us out. Call (208) 314-5276 for a free estimate.

Why do so many Hidden Springs basements leak after a big snowmelt?
The decomposed granite on these slopes sheds water quickly until it reaches a foundation, then it saturates the backfill. Snowmelt in March and April sends a lot of water down at once, and if your grading slopes toward the house or your downspouts dump at the wall, that water finds cracks and cold joints. We often recommend correcting the grade and adding a French drain before water ever reaches the wall.
What should I do if water is actively coming into my Hidden Springs basement during a storm?
Call us at (208) 314-5276. Move valuables off the floor and do not touch electrical panels if they are wet. We prioritize active leaks and can usually get someone out to assess the same day or next. If your sump pump is running continuously or has failed, we can replace it and check the discharge line for freezing or blockage.
How much does a typical basement waterproofing job cost in Hidden Springs?
Most homeowners here spend between $2,500 and $8,000 depending on the system. Interior drain tile with a sump pump is common, and exterior waterproofing on a walkout can run higher because of excavation on a slope. We give you a written estimate after the free inspection so you know the real number, not a range.
Do I need a permit for foundation crack repair or an egress window in Hidden Springs?
Permits are commonly required for structural foundation repair, egress window cutting, and work that alters drainage or the sanitary connection of a sump discharge. Rules vary by jurisdiction, so we always check with the local building department before we start. We handle the paperwork and inspections as part of the job.
My neighbor's runoff is making my basement wet. What can I do about the property line in Hidden Springs?
First, we inspect where the water is actually coming from. If it is surface runoff crossing the property line, that is often a civil matter between neighbors, but we can usually solve it on your side with a French drain or regrading. If your HOA has rules about drainage or visible exterior changes, we coordinate with them so the work does not create a violation.
Are you insured for work at my Hidden Springs home?
Yes. We are fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage.
What maintenance should I do each year to prevent basement water in Hidden Springs?
Clean your gutters and extend downspouts at least six feet from the foundation before the fall rains and again after snowmelt. Test your sump pump by pouring a bucket of water into the basin and make sure the check valve holds. Walk the perimeter in spring and look for settled soil or new cracks, and call us if you see efflorescence or a crack that is wider than a hairline. A free inspection every couple of years catches small issues before they become wet basements.

Our services

Our Basement Waterproofing Services in Boise

All your work handled by qualified professionals in Boise

Basement Waterproofing

We diagnose the actual water path first, then build the system that matches it.

Included in your service

  • Water path traced: hydrostatic pressure, wall seepage, or floor cracks
  • Interior drain tile, sump basin, wall treatment, and vapor barrier as needed
  • Honest call on what you need and what you do not
  • Transferable warranty on the system, terms set out in your written contract
Learn more→

Interior Drain Tile System

Perimeter drain tile at the footing, routed to a sump basin. Installed in any season.

Included in your service

  • Slab edge opened, perforated pipe laid in washed stone at the footing
  • Water captured before it reaches the floor, channeled to the sump basin
  • Works through winter, unlike exterior excavation
  • Concrete restored flush, basement left clean and usable
Learn more→

Exterior Basement Waterproofing

The most thorough fix there is: excavation to the footing, membrane, and new drains.

Included in your service

  • Excavation to the footing, foundation wall cleaned and repaired
  • Waterproof membrane and dimple board applied to the outside face
  • New footing drains bedded in stone and wrapped in filter fabric
  • Straight guidance on when exterior work earns its cost over an interior system
Learn more→

Foundation Waterproofing

Block, poured, and fieldstone foundations, each treated for how it actually fails.

Included in your service

  • Parging and crack repair matched to the wall construction
  • Membrane or crystalline treatment selected for the substrate
  • Drainage corrected so the treatment is not asked to hold back standing water
  • Period-appropriate approach for pre-1940 stone and block walls
Learn more→

Foundation Crack Repair

Epoxy bonds a structural crack, polyurethane seals a wet and moving one. We use the right one.

Included in your service

  • Crack graded first: cosmetic, actively weeping, or still moving
  • Injection ports set along the full depth of the crack
  • Epoxy injection where the wall needs structural bonding
  • Polyurethane injection where the crack is wet and needs to stay flexible
Learn more→

Sump Pump Installation & Replacement

A pump is only as good as the basin, the check valve, and where the water actually goes.

Included in your service

  • Zoeller and Liberty pumps sized to your pit and inflow
  • Sealed basin and check valve to stop backflow between cycles
  • Discharge line routed and freeze-protected for spring snowmelt
  • Old pump and debris removed, cycle tested before we leave
Learn more→

Bowing Wall Repair

Stop the movement without rebuilding the wall, in most cases.

Included in your service

  • Bow measured and monitored to establish how far the wall has moved
  • Carbon fiber straps bonded to the wall for lighter bows
  • Steel wall anchors where the bow needs active correction
  • The clay soil pressure driving it addressed, not just the wall braced
Learn more→

French Drain Installation

Intercept surface and groundwater before it ever reaches the foundation.

Included in your service

  • Trench graded to fall, gravel bed and perforated pipe wrapped in filter fabric
  • Curtain drains placed uphill of the house where the water actually arrives
  • Outlet tied to daylight or to a pump basin, never left to pond
  • Grading and downspout extensions corrected as part of the job
Learn more→

Drain Tile Repair & Replacement

Many homes here still run on original clay tile that stopped draining decades ago.

Included in your service

  • Camera inspection to locate the collapse, blockage, or root intrusion
  • Targeted excavation rather than replacing the entire run
  • Modern PVC replacement bedded in washed stone
  • Flow tested end to end once the line is reconnected
Learn more→

Vapor Barrier Installation

Stop moisture migrating through block and concrete before you finish the space.

Included in your service

  • Heavy-duty wall and floor barrier sealed at seams and penetrations
  • Fitted around the drainage system so moisture is managed, not trapped behind it
  • The right prep step before framing a basement finish
  • Paired with drainage, because a barrier alone does not remove water
Learn more→

Basement Wall Sealing

Sealers fix minor dampness. They do not beat hydrostatic pressure, and we will tell you which you have.

Included in your service

  • Surface prepared and efflorescence removed down to sound masonry
  • Penetrating or membrane sealer chosen for the wall and the conditions
  • Plain diagnosis of whether sealing is genuinely enough for your basement
  • If the water table is the driver, we say so instead of selling you a coating
Learn more→

Battery Backup Sump Pumps

The power goes out during the storm, which is exactly when the pump matters most.

Included in your service

  • Backup pump and battery sized to your pit and expected inflow
  • Automatic changeover the moment the primary pump loses power
  • Audible alarm so a failure does not go unnoticed
  • Runtime explained honestly, and maintenance checks available
Learn more→

Free Basement Inspection

A written assessment with photos, and a straight answer if nothing is actually wrong.

Included in your service

  • Walls, floor, cracks, and sump system checked point by point
  • Exterior grading, downspouts, and window wells reviewed as water sources
  • Photos and a written explanation of what needs fixing now and what can wait
  • Free and no obligation, including when our answer is that you need nothing
Learn more→

Basement Mold Remediation

Removal paired with the moisture fix, because mold returns wherever the water does.

Included in your service

  • Containment set up before any affected material is disturbed
  • Affected surfaces treated and remediated, damaged materials removed
  • Musty smell traced back to the moisture source rather than masked
  • Drainage or dehumidification added so growth does not restart
Learn more→

Window Well Drainage & Repair

A well that fills becomes a bucket of water held against your foundation.

Included in your service

  • Well excavated and a drain tied into the footing drain or a stone bed
  • Liner set true and backfilled with free-draining stone
  • Clear cover fitted to keep out rain, leaves, and snow
  • A leak source homeowners rarely suspect and inspections often miss
Learn more→

Egress Window Installation

Code-compliant egress, cut and flashed so the new space stays dry.

Included in your service

  • Opening cut and framed to the required egress dimensions
  • Window flashed and sealed against the foundation wall
  • Well drained properly so the new opening is not a water entry point
  • Permit requirements confirmed with the local building department first

“We had water seeping into our finished basement every spring, and Boise Waterproofing sealed the whole thing up in about two days. The crew of three was super clean and hauled away all the old caulk and debris. Bone dry down there now, even after that big rain last month.”

“Our old sump pump died and the pit was filling up fast. They got out to our place in Eagle within a couple days and swapped in a new pump plus a battery backup. Only gripe is they were a little late on the first appointment, but the install itself was solid and quiet.”

“Had them cut in an egress window with a proper window well in our basement bedroom. I was nervous about the digging, but the crew kept everything tidy and the drainage in the well works great. Feels like a real room now instead of a cave.”

“Foundation waterproofing on our 1970s ranch house. They dug down along the north wall, sealed it, and put in proper drainage. Two weeks of work and they cleaned up so well you couldn't even tell they'd been digging. No more damp smell in the crawlspace.”

“They installed an interior drain tile system along two walls of our basement and tied it into a new sump pit. I was amazed at how little dust there was for that much concrete cutting. Water hasn't come near the floor since.”

“Had a couple of hairline cracks weeping in the concrete basement walls, and they sealed them and did a full wall sealing job. Fast, fair price, and they explained everything before starting. Small thing, but I wish they'd given a bit more notice before showing up.”

“Our backyard kept flooding toward the house, so they put in a French drain along the foundation. Crew of four knocked it out in a day and a half and re-graded everything nicely. First big storm after, the water went exactly where it was supposed to.”

“They waterproofed our basement walls and sealed the floor slab after we kept getting moisture creeping up through the concrete. The vapor barrier and sealing made a huge difference, and the musty smell is finally gone. Genuinely relieved we called them.”
