Basement Waterproofing

Basement waterproofing is the process of protecting basement floors, walls, joints, and other vulnerable areas from water seepage, moisture and water ingress. A properly assessed waterproofing system can help protect the basement from dampness, leakage, surface deterioration and recurring moisture problems. 

Common Basement Problems

• 💧 Water seepage through walls

• 🌧️ Rainwater infiltration

• 🌊 Groundwater pressure

• 🧱 Cracks in basement walls or floors

• 🔗 Leakage through construction joints

• 🚰 Plumbing or drainage-related leakage

• 💦 Damp floors and persistent moisture

• 🎨 Peeling paint and surface damage

Our Basement Waterproofing Approach

• 1 Site Inspection — Examine basement walls, floors, joints, cracks and areas showing signs of moisture.

• 3 Surface Preparation — Clean and prepare affected surfaces so the selected treatment can be applied properly.

• 4 Crack & Joint Treatment — Address suitable cracks, joints and other vulnerable points according to their condition.

• 5 Waterproofing Application — Apply the appropriate waterproofing system for the basement's specific requirements.

• 6 Drainage Assessment — Where relevant, evaluate drainage and water-management conditions that may contribute to water ingress.

• 7 Final Inspection — Check the treated areas and workmanship after completion.
