What is causing the moisture?
Ask how the water entry or moisture mechanism was identified and what alternatives were ruled out.
Exterior waterproofing focuses on water at the outside face of basement walls and the drainage conditions around them.
Where accessible, exterior work can involve excavation, wall preparation, waterproof membranes, protective boards, and footing drainage. Project scope varies with soil, depth, landscaping, and the wall condition.
The estimate should spell out which wall sections need treatment, what is excavated, how the wall is prepared, where collected water will go, and how disturbed areas will be restored.
Important: Exterior work can be more disruptive than interior work, so compare the scope and expected water-control outcome carefully.
Ask how the water entry or moisture mechanism was identified and what alternatives were ruled out.
Understand materials, affected areas, access needs, removal and restoration, maintenance, and warranty limits.
For a drain or pump, require a clear explanation of the path from collection to appropriate discharge.

Not necessarily. The right approach depends on inspection findings, water entry, drainage, and building conditions.
A contractor should inspect the issue and explain recommended work, access, discharge planning, and restoration before work starts.
