   One approach to stopping water from coming into a basement/crawlspace is by working on the outside of the house. In some cases, it is better to perform the work on the outside to prevent water from entering the structure.

   This is accomplished by excavating the outside of the house next to the foundation walls. After the walls are exposed, they will be cleaned, repaired, and sealed with a special membrane and a protection/drainboard. At the same time, the proper drainage system will be installed. Finally, the area will be backfilled with 57 stone aggregate and soil. Our years of experience have allowed us to develop several proprietary techniques to provide the customer with the assurance that his or her basement will remain dry.

   This approach is best when water is coming through the walls. If the water is coming through one or more cracks, it may be stopped by injecting the cracks. Other methods of injection (inside/outside) or diverting water from the structure may also be used. Please contact us for information regarding these other options.
