I want to waterproof my basement and had four different estimates. Which one is best for me? Part of my basement is wet (not flooding) after it rains for a long period of time. I wanted to solve this problem so i called up four different waterproofers. 1st one said that they will put piping and tubes around the floor where the water seems to be. He said the pump is not necesssary because theres not much water. He is going to charge $695 with 2 years warranty. 2nd one said that he was going to remove sheet rock to see if there is a crack in the foundation wall, and if there is, he is going to seal it. He is charging $750 for it. 3rd one said that he was going to kill the molds and put pipes and pump. He offered life-time warranty for it. But he's charging us $6500. 4th one said said he was going to put pipes and pump along the whole side of a wall. He is charging $3500 with 10 years guarantee. After these four estimates, i don't know which one to work with. Please give me any advise or suggestions and I will greatly appreciate it. Thank You!

Why are my house insurance estimates so high? We're buying our first house & our mortgage guy estimated our costs for house insurance should be $400-500.

Or is there somthing more?
