Basement Waterproofing

Frequently Asked Questions
My basement already has water damage — can it be fixed?
Yes, we handle both new installations and remedial waterproofing on existing basements.
What causes basement water ingress?
Hydrostatic pressure, poor original waterproofing, cracks in the structure, and failed drainage are the most common causes.
How long does basement waterproofing take?
Depending on the size and complexity, most basement jobs take between 2 and 5 days.
Do you need to excavate to waterproof a basement?
Not always. In many cases we can apply internal tanking systems without excavation. We assess each situation individually and recommend the least invasive effective solution.
How do I know if my basement waterproofing has failed?
Signs include damp patches on walls or floors, white salt deposits (efflorescence), musty smells, and visible water seeping through walls or floor joints.
