KC Waterproofing serves Paola from our North Kansas City and Grandview offices. Your inspection connects the symptoms you see with a repair plan for your property.
If something does not feel quite right in your basement or crawl space, your home might be trying to tell you something. Foundation issues often start subtly, but the signs become more evident over time. Here are some common signs you need to look out for:
Shifting soil, drainage problems, and aging materials can all take a toll on your foundation. If your home has started to settle unevenly or you see gaps forming on the walls or between the walls and ceilings, it’s time for a professional inspection. We will identify the underlying cause and recommend the most effective solution. If you leave foundation issues untreated, these problems can put your entire home’s structure at significant risk. That’s why it is essential to get ahead of them early.

Our foundation repair solutions in Paola, KS, consist of a full suite of foundation repair services designed to restore stability and prevent future damage.
Pier systems are used to lift and stabilize homes that have settled unevenly due to weak or shifting soil. We install steel piers deep below the foundation until they reach stable soil or bedrock, then use them to lift the foundation back to its original level. This method prevents further movement and restores the integrity of your structure. Pier systems are long-term solutions that are backed by solid engineering.

Interior drainage systems are one of the most effective ways to protect your home against water intrusion. We install a drainage channel along the perimeter of your basement floor that collects water and directs it to a sump pump. These systems work behind the scenes and are completely hidden once they are installed. They protect your basement from standing water and reduce the effect of hydrostatic pressure on your walls.
Sump pumps remove collected water from your basement before it causes damage. We install high-capacity pumps that work automatically to discharge water safely outside your home.

Your crawl space is an important part of your home’s air quality and structural stability. That’s why we provide complete crawl space solutions that fix damage, control moisture, and protect your foundation.
Damaged support beams, rotting wood, and shifting floors are all signs your crawl space needs attention. We reinforce failing structures and replace compromised components to restore stability. Our repairs are built to last and improve your home from the ground up.

Everyone I’ve interacted with from KC Waterproofing has been a delight. Friendly, professional and hardworking - from our Foundation Specialist Patrick to every member of Schylur’s crew who completed the work. Their clear communication with me throughout the course of the project was very appreciated. The crew clearly enjoys working together as well as the work they are doing, which gives me full confidence in the caliber of the end result. I would contract them again without reservation and happily recommend them to anyone in need of crawl space waterproofing services.
Connor and his crew did an excellent job fixing our foundation. I can't believe they finish it in 5 days. Hardworking and professional crew. I would recommend them to anybody. Even clean up the basement really well.
Connor and his crew did an excellent job fixing our foundation. They finish it in 5 days and we love the result. Left our basement spotless as well. Would recommend them to anybody.
Mario serviced my sump pump today and did a good job. He also replaced tape on my wall shield. He provided excellent customer service and was willing ti come out any time needed or said to call him anytime if I had any questions.
Great price, great work! In just 3 days, Jesse’s team added two sump pumps and over 40’ feet of channeling with the full wall systems. No more towels, fans, and dehumidifier after every big rain storm!
KC Waterproofing and Foundation Repair has taken incredible care of my home through multiple visits. Gary and Davan handled my initial sump pump installation and crack repairs, and they were not only skilled but genuinely thoughtful throughout the process. We had a bit of early miscommunication, and instead of brushing it aside, they listened, acknowledged what happened, and adjusted the plan so everything aligned with what I needed. They brought me in at every step—walking me through pump location options, explaining the exit pipe decisions, and making sure I felt confident about the work being done. Their friendliness and respect made a stressful repair feel manageable. Later on, I had some cracks that needed to be reassessed, and Mario came out to take a look. He was incredibly kind, patient, and thorough, and he did an amazing job with the additional repairs. His calm, reassuring approach made me feel completely taken care of. I also want to highlight Don, the manager, who is just as kind and committed to making sure customers feel heard and supported. It’s clear this team truly values doing right by people. I’m grateful for their care and would absolutely recommend them for any foundation repair or waterproofing needs.
I am extremely grateful for the amazing work done by Gerry Reynolds and his crew at KC Water Proofing! They did an amazing job installing a drainage system, sub pump, and wall wrap. I would recommend them to anyone needing peace of mind in water proofing their sub basement. Thank you for the hard work!
Excellent service and work! I’ve worked with KC Waterproofing and Foundation Repair twice now (for foundation work and most recently window well/waterproofing work). I have been satisfied with their work both times. Always easy to schedule and Recently Riley helped with a quote and was not pushy about moving forward; which was my experience a few years ago too. They don’t take up hours of time to give a quote which I appreciate. The team that did the recent work (main contact was Schuyler) were easy to work with and talk too, very kind. You can tell this group of people works together and works together well. They had a lot of hand digging and they did it very quickly. When an unexpected issue arose (removing some sidewalk) Schuyler laid out the what/why/how plainly in an easy to understand way. They did replace the sidewalk concrete. It was a big job and they got it done in a day and a half and were in high spirits throughout. They cleaned up a lot after the project too, which is appreciated. Schuyler did a final walk-through and answered any questions I had. Pricing was good too, I got another quote that was astronomical for pricing and the other company wasted 3 hours of my time to provide a quote. If I need anything in the future I won’t bother with a second quote as I’ve always had excellent experiences with KC Waterproofing. The support staff is very kind and helpful too, as well as prompt. Overall, excellent experiences; highly recommend!
We had a leak in what we thought was our foundation. Water coming in under our basement floor. Francis Heisinger came and checked it out for us. He could have recommended a French drain that would entail digging, pipes, removing and replacing concrete and lots of money. Being the honest man that he is, he gave us his opinion as to what the problem entailed. Thank you so very much. Should we ever need foundation work done, we will definitely use this company!
