Custom Basement Waterproofing Solutions
Exterior Drainage
Effective exterior drainage is crucial for preventing water intrusion and foundation damage. We offer customized solutions, includingFrench drains, footing drains, yard grading, and gutter systems, to redirect water away from your home. By controlling surface and groundwater flow, our exterior drainage services help protect your basement from leaks and excess moisture.
Interior Drainage
Interior drainage solutions manage water that enters your basement, preventing flooding and excess humidity. We install advanced interior drain tile systems and sump pumps to collect and direct water safely away from your foundation. These systems work in conjunction with other waterproofing methods to keep basements dry and structurally sound year-round.
Exterior Waterproofing
Exterior foundation waterproofing provides a strong first line of defense against water infiltration. Our solutions include specialized drainage systems and waterproof coatings to shield foundation walls from moisture damage. By sealing cracks and applying protective barriers, we prevent hydrostatic pressure from forcing water into your basement, ensuring long-term protection against leaks.
Mold Solutions
Moisture issues can lead to mold and microbial growth, compromising indoor air quality and structural integrity. We identify and address mold concerns by resolving underlying moisture problems with waterproofing solutions. Our team helps keep basements dry by implementing targeted drainage systems, dehumidifiers, and vapor barriers to prevent future microbial growth.
Vapor Barriers
Vapor barriers help regulate basement humidity by preventing moisture from seeping through walls and floors. We install high-quality, heavy-duty barriers to create a protective seal against damp conditions. By integrating vapor barriers with interior drainage and dehumidification systems, we enhance air quality and reduce the risk of mold and foundation deterioration.
