Before you build a new home with a basement, it is important to consider how the basement will be protected from water damage. Over 90% of basement moisture leaks come from above grade foundation wall leaks. Why?
Often the foundation waterproofing stops at the grade line. Frequently, water-retaining mulch or topsoil covers much of the untreated surface. Other causes for leaks include:
We have all been in basements that retain a damp and moldy smell. These basements will never be the dry, cozy living area for which they were intended. As you invest in a new construction project, don’t let this happen to you.
“THANK YOU for the great work and effort you and your crew put into our basement waterproofing job. I had some initial concerns about whether the project would get done at all this year, but once you were on the job, it literally went faster and smoother than I could have optimistically imagined. It’s rare enough to get contractors to show up and “just do the work” requested; you guys took it a step further by not only working with speed, but with skill and confidence that gave me a peace of mind that the execution will hold up over time. Thanks for answering all of my questions and concerns along the way.”

“I just wanted to take a moment to say thanks again for all of your hard work with our basement waterproofing job last fall. After a spring of torrential rains (great for seeding a new lawn, not so much for basements), we remained completely dry. If you ever need a reference or testimonial, feel welcome to have anyone give us a call!”
