Exterior waterproofing addresses the source directly: excavation, membrane application, and footing drainage designed to keep water away from the wall in the first place.

What "specialized" actually means for exterior waterproofing at our company — not a marketing word, a set of specific practices.
Certification covers grading assessment, drainage board installation, and rubberized membrane application to manufacturer spec.
Local crews understand your region's soil composition and typical frost depth, both of which affect excavation planning.
Quotes break out excavation linear footage, membrane material, footing drain installation, and backfill/regrading separately, in writing.
Footing drains are set in washed gravel and wrapped in filter fabric to resist silt clogging over the system's service life.
We don't run a one-size-fits-all playbook — every exterior waterproofing job starts from these core service components, adapted to what your property actually needs.
Drainage board goes over the membrane to create a channel for water to travel down to the footing drain instead of pressing against the wall. This is the most thorough exterior fix available and typically carries the longest service life of any waterproofing method.
A footing drain intercepts groundwater at the base of the foundation and carries it away via gravity or a connected sump system before it can build pressure against the wall.
We regrade the perimeter to direct water away from the structure and coordinate downspout extensions as part of a complete exterior fix.
We install window well drains tied into the footing drain system, plus a clear cover to reduce debris accumulation.
Cracks and cold joints exposed during excavation get treated directly at the source, from the outside, before the membrane goes over them.
Here's what happens between your call and a completed exterior fix.
Photos of the affected exterior area, texted ahead of the visit, help the technician plan equipment needs before arriving.
You'll get a text confirmation with an arrival window and any documents needed, like utility locate authorization.
A full grading and drainage evaluation identifies whether the fix needs full excavation, footing drain repair, or grading correction alone.
We document the completed system with photos before backfilling, so you have a record of exactly what's below grade.
