What We Do

Five Services. One Dry, Healthy Basement.

Water on the floor, cracks in the wall, a sump pump that can’t keep up — each of these is a different problem with a different fix. We diagnose what’s actually going on in your basement and recommend only the services you need. Pick one below to see how it works, or book a free inspection and we’ll figure it out for you.

The Services

Built to Work as One Solution

Most wet basements need more than one of these five. They work as one solution. The drain catches the water low and the sump pushes it back outside, while the wall treatment runs seepage down to that drain instead of trapping it behind paint. Humidity is its own fight, so dehumidification handles the moisture the bare concrete keeps giving off long after the last rain. We diagnose which pieces your basement needs. We tell you the ones it does not.

Basement Waterproofing

Our complete fix for a wet basement. We dry out the floor, the walls, and the air, and keep it that way all year.

Basement Wall Waterproofing

For walls that stay wet, stain, or peel after a storm. We move the water off the wall and out, so your paint and finishes stop failing.

Basement Wall Crack Repair

A cracked or bowing wall? We give you an honest read on whether it's serious or just settling, then fix the ones that need it.

Basement Drains

The root fix for a floor that keeps flooding. We catch the water where it comes in and carry it out, so it stops pooling for good.

Sump Pumps

For a pump that can't keep up, or no pump at all. We install one sized to your basement with backup power for the next big storm.

How We Stop the Water

One Honest Method: Collect It, Then Get It Out.

Nobody seals a basement against a saturated yard. Diversion works. We let the water in at a controlled point and carry it out faster than it can pool. That is an interior subslab drain. It is the spine of nearly every job we run, and the steps below are the same whether you have one wet wall or four.

1. Open the floor beside the footer

We cut a 10-by-10 trench around the inside perimeter, beside and below the footer. This is the part competitors get wrong. A proprietary drainage system sits on top of the footer; ours goes lower, so pulling water away never undermines the footing your house rests on.

2. Lay perforated pipe in washed gravel

A 4-inch slotted pipe beds in clean drainage rock. The rock gives water an easy path into the pipe instead of forcing it up through your slab. The line is pitched to the lowest point of the floor.

3. Drain the wall

A dimpled mat runs up the inside of the wall, and we drill weep holes in the bottom course of block. Water trapped inside the hollow cores drops into the trench rather than holding against the wall. On a quiet night you can hear it trickle behind the block once the holes are open.

4. Re-concrete flush and pitch to the sump

We pour the floor back level, terminate the trench in a sump pit, and the pump lifts the water and discharges it outside, away from the foundation. Interior only. The yard, the grade, and the landscaping stay where they are.
Everybody in this market sells one patented system and tries to make every basement fit it. We do the opposite. We read the wall, then we pick the material. Going beside and below the footer is what protects the house. That’s the line we won’t cross.

What We Don’t Do

A Tight, Honest Scope

We work inside only. A tight scope is how we stay good at the basement work we keep. If a job needs something past our lane, we tell you and send you to the right specialist.

We Do Not:

  • Dig the yard for exterior excavation
  • Set helical piers
  • Install foundation underpinning
  • Install egress windows
  • Perform Crawl Space Work (Crawl spaces are Crawlspace Medic’s lane, our sister company.)

Not Sure Which Service You Need?

That’s what the free inspection is for. We diagnose the basement and tell you exactly what it takes, and what it doesn’t.
