Verified record

Highlights
- Basement waterproofing — five of six reviews filed under that work
- Unbroken five stars — all six ratings, no complaint on either listing
- Angi Approved badge — platform states a 4.5-plus average maintained
- Stale review history — newest review on either page is January 2025
- One listing, two sites — HomeAdvisor mirrors Angi, so corroboration is thin
- Unverified licence — CS-089637 is self-reported, not state-confirmed
Six reviews, six five-star ratings, and nearly every one of them about a wet basement. Start 2 Finish Waterproofing Construction works out of 71 Elm Street in Foxboro and says it has 16 years behind it. The work is narrow and clear: keeping water out of eastern Massachusetts basements. Five of those six Angi reviews were filed under basement or crawlspace waterproofing, and the run is unbroken from 2024 into early 2025 — no complaint, no middling star. The catch is depth. HomeAdvisor shows the same 5.0 over the same six reviews because that page mirrors the Angi listing, so what looks like two sources agreeing is one set of customers counted twice. Age is the other thing to weigh. Nothing has been posted on either page since January 2025, so the praise describes the crew as it worked a year and a half ago, not necessarily the crew that would show up now. Both listings show a Massachusetts trade licence, CS-089637, with a February 2027 expiration. That number is the company's own self-report to the directory rather than a state confirmation, so ask to see the licence and check it against the registry yourself. Free estimates and warranties are stated on both pages. A reasonable call for a Foxboro-area basement water problem, with the honest caveat that you are working off a small, single-platform review history. Ask for two or three recent references, confirm the licence, and get a competing quote before you sign.

They came when they said and did what they said. What was especially nice was their professionalism. They worked hard each day. Cleaned up at the end of each day. We've had 3 rain storms since and we have a dry basement we hadn't seen in years. (Job cost stated on the review: $8,900)

Excellent company to go for.. Highly professional team. Dependable and right on time. Ed and Bob are so precise in their work and completed as per plan. I would highly recommend S2F to anybody looking for preventing water penetration in basement

I highly recommend Start2Finish Waterproofing. Ed was wonderful to work with. He was timely, informative, and honest. There's no inspection fee like most other companies. Their quote was very reasonable and has a lifetime warranty. Bob and the install crew were very efficient and left my basement in the same condition as when they came. For basement water issues this is the company to use!!

Ed and Bob were incredibly detail oriented from design to implementation. Very high quality solution done in a short time period - worked within the confines of my very old home and did the work with lots of care not to disturb existing structure. Extremely professional work (end of day tools kept neatly, no trash, very organized job) and clean. Highly recommend for french drain or basement drain systems. (Job cost stated on the review: $12,000)

What does basement waterproofing cost in Greater Boston?
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Start 2 Finish Waterproofing Construction. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
Not sure which you need? Start with an inspection — many reputable companies assess free, and independent assessments run up to $500.
The wall run getting the drain — a full 30×40 ft basement is about 140 ft.
Estimated range
$7,600 – $15,000
Typical waterproofing project around $11,300
