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

Four commitments that separate a properly trained exterior waterproofing crew from a generalist showing up with a truck and a hope.
Crews are trained in proper excavation depth, membrane application technique, and footing drain installation specific to exterior waterproofing systems.
Local crews understand your region's soil composition and typical frost depth, both of which affect excavation planning.
No surprise charges for unexpected utility lines or rock encountered during excavation — those are flagged and discussed before proceeding.
We apply rubberized asphalt or sheet membrane systems rated for below-grade application, not a consumer-grade coating that degrades within a few seasons.
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.
We excavate along the affected wall section down to the footing, clean and prep the existing foundation surface, and apply a rubberized waterproofing membrane rated for permanent below-grade exposure. 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.
Four steps, start to finish — from your call to a backfilled, regraded foundation wall.
Active pooling against the foundation is flagged for priority scheduling.
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.
