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.
Certification covers grading assessment, drainage board installation, and rubberized membrane application to manufacturer spec.
Initial exterior assessments, which require walking the full property perimeter, are typically scheduled within a few days.
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.
Each service below is scoped specifically to exterior waterproofing, not a generic waterproofing menu with the name swapped in.
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.
Older homes often have footing drains that have silted in or collapsed over decades — we assess existing drain condition and replace where compromised.
Soil that slopes toward the foundation instead of away from it sends every rainfall straight at your basement wall, regardless of how good the membrane below is.
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.
Describe what you're seeing from outside — pooling water, visible efflorescence on the wall, soil that stays saturated — and dispatch routes a crew equipped for an exterior assessment.
Most Allendale, NJ exterior assessments are scheduled within a few days given the scope of a proper perimeter evaluation.
Pricing is itemized by excavation footage, membrane material, and drainage work, in writing before any digging begins.
We document the completed system with photos before backfilling, so you have a record of exactly what's below grade.
