Mold, mildew, musty odors, and health problems often result from water damage in your home. The water damage often goes undetected in the basement or the crawl space until serious problems occur.  Health problems coupled with potential structural damage from water damage can really stress out the average homeowner. Waterproofing your space is the best way to prevent water damage and the symptoms it causes.  

Interior Drainage

Interior drainage system installation is the most permanent waterproofing solution available, but it can be expensive to install a French drain since it requires the digging of trenches. Sump pump installation can also solve flooding since it effectively removes water from your space. If you want to know more about either of these interior drainage options, we can answer all of your questions and give additional information to help you decide if interior drainage solutions are a better option than waterproofing.  

Sealants

Applied to the basement walls or over the dirt of the crawl space, sealants prevent water from seeping inside, eliminating risks of flooding and other common issues that occur as the result. Sealants are the most common waterproofing strategies homeowners use to protect their homes, but many people complain that they provide a temporary fix to a long-term problem. We understand that concern and use MaxxBarrier and LumberKote sealants to protect your home against moisture and water damage. These sealants provide long-term solutions to water damage in your basement and crawl space.
