Exterior Waterproofing
In many circumstances waterproofing issues can be resolved with external waterproofing applications.
A properly waterproofed exterior wall will block out the water that seeps through making it continue to a properly configured drainage system.
The Process
Excavation will occur around the perimeter of your home. The size of the excavation meets industry safety standards and allows for workman maneuverability.
All visible cracks will be enlarged and refilled.
Parging Hydraulic Cement is then applied thoroughly and evenly across the problem area.
Aqua Guard 720-38 is then troweled evenly and thoroughly across the entire perimeter of problem area.
The drainage system is installed.
Dimple board (Delta Membrane / Hydroguard) is applied.
As an additional option we can install styrofoam insulation to help keep your basement warm in the winter and cool in the summer

Interior Waterproofing (Alternative Solution to Exterior)
Our internal water proofing system provides a solution when exterior waterproofing is not an option.
The ABC's of your Interior system:
We will break the floor area around the perimeter of the basement
We will remove the concrete and dig out a trench to accommodate the necessary weeping tile.
The weeping tile is installed and connected to a sump pump or a suitable drain.
A dimpled sheet of drainage membrane is installed on the interior exposed wall.
We then install gravel over the weeping tile to ensure maximum drainage to the tile.
Finally we will install a layer of concrete over the exposed trench that will finish the floor back to its original state.
