Is $10,000 to install interior waterproofing a fair price?

Project Details

Moved into a 1960s house in Toronto with double block walls. Noticed water intrusion in the unfinished basement (framed and insulated) during winter. Moisture readings suggest hydrostatic pressure from below. Area may have been a former riverbed.

Quote Details
