Why You Shouldn’t Ignore a Wet Basement
Older homes with brick or clay tile foundations are especially vulnerable to moisture issues due to the porous nature of these materials. These basements often trap humidity and odors, leading to persistent wetness and mold growth. Our waterproofing approach includes specialized vapor barriers or encapsulation systems for these foundation types to eliminate moisture and improve air quality.
For homes with block or poured concrete foundations, we tailor the solution using internal drainage, sump systems, and thinner moisture barriers where needed — especially behind finished walls.

We install interior drainage systems to collect and redirect water before it pools — fast, clean, and highly effective.
Moisture in the air is just as dangerous as water on the floor. Our dehumidifiers keep humidity low and mold at bay.
Redirect gutter water away from your foundation to prevent pooling and pressure buildup on basement walls.
Seal your basement with a heavy-duty vapor barrier system for maximum moisture protection and air quality improvement.
Our sump pumps remove water fast — even during power outages when paired with battery backup systems.
Apply moisture-resistant coatings to your foundation exterior to prevent vapor penetration and surface dampness.
