Question 1

Do I need interior or exterior waterproofing?

Accepted Answer

Exterior waterproofing is more comprehensive as it stops water before it reaches your foundation, but it requires excavation and is more expensive. Interior waterproofing manages water that has already entered and is less disruptive. Many situations benefit from a combined approach. We assess your specific conditions and recommend the most cost-effective solution.

Question 2

Will this fix my wet basement?

Accepted Answer

Yes, our comprehensive approach addresses both the water entry points (cracks, joints, porous concrete) and the underlying drainage issues that create hydrostatic pressure against your foundation. This dual approach permanently solves wet basement issues rather than just managing symptoms.

Question 3

What causes foundation water problems?

Accepted Answer

The primary cause is hydrostatic pressure—water accumulating in soil and pushing against foundation walls. This is worsened by poor grading, clogged gutters/downspouts, high water tables (common in Florida), and inadequate perimeter drainage. Over time, this pressure can cause cracks and water intrusion.

Question 4

How can I tell if I have foundation water damage?

Accepted Answer

Signs include: water stains or efflorescence (white mineral deposits) on basement walls, musty odors, visible cracks in foundation, peeling paint or bubbling drywall, warped doors that stick, and visible mold or mildew growth. Any standing water after rain is a serious warning sign.

Question 5

Is foundation waterproofing covered by insurance?

Accepted Answer

Typically, standard homeowner insurance does not cover water damage from seepage, groundwater, or poor drainage. However, flood insurance may cover certain situations. We provide documentation for insurance claims when applicable and can work with your adjuster.
