Basement Waterproofing Company Freeport

We Know Long Island Basements

Diamond Masonry & Waterproofing LLC has been solving water problems for Freeport homeowners who understand that their basement issues aren’t going away on their own. We’re not the guys who show up, patch a crack, and disappear.

We’re masonry and waterproofing specialists. That means we understand how water moves, where it comes from, and how to stop it permanently. Living on Long Island means dealing with high water tables, coastal storms, and soil conditions that most contractors don’t really understand.

You’re not getting a one-size-fits-all solution. You’re getting people who’ve seen every type of water problem Freeport basements can throw at us.

Basement Waterproofing Process Freeport

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we figure out where your water is actually coming from. Not just where you see it, but where it starts. We check your foundation walls, floor joints, window wells, and exterior grading. Most water problems have multiple entry points.

Next, we create a waterproofing plan that makes sense for your specific situation. Sometimes that’s interior basement waterproofing with drainage systems and sump pumps. Sometimes it’s exterior basement waterproofing to stop water before it reaches your foundation. Often, it’s both.

Then we execute the plan without turning your life upside down. We protect your belongings, work efficiently, and clean up properly. You get a basement that stays dry through the next storm, the next spring thaw, and the next decade of Long Island weather.

How much does basement waterproofing cost in Freeport?

Basement waterproofing costs depend on your specific water problem and the solution needed. Interior waterproofing typically runs $3,000-$8,000 for most Freeport homes, while exterior waterproofing ranges from $8,000-$15,000. The investment is significant, but it’s a fraction of what you’ll pay for foundation repairs, mold remediation, or structural damage if water problems continue. We provide detailed estimates after assessing your situation, so you know exactly what you’re paying for and why.

Should I choose interior or exterior basement waterproofing?

It depends on where your water is coming from and your budget. Exterior basement waterproofing stops water before it reaches your foundation walls – it’s the most comprehensive solution but requires excavation. Interior basement waterproofing manages water that’s already getting in through drainage systems and sump pumps. Many Freeport homes need both approaches for complete protection. We’ll assess your specific situation and recommend the most effective solution for your water problems and budget.

How long does basement waterproofing take to complete?

Interior basement waterproofing typically takes 2-4 days, depending on the size of your basement and complexity of the drainage system. Exterior waterproofing takes longer – usually 5-7 days – because of excavation and proper curing time for waterproof membranes. Weather can affect exterior work timelines. We’ll give you a realistic schedule upfront and keep you updated throughout the process. Most homeowners are surprised how quickly they can get back to normal life with a permanently dry basement.

Will basement waterproofing solve my mold and odor problems?

Proper basement waterproofing eliminates the moisture that causes mold growth and musty odors. Once we stop water intrusion and improve ventilation, existing mold problems typically resolve naturally. However, if you have significant mold growth, you may need professional mold remediation before waterproofing work begins. We’ll assess your situation and recommend the right sequence of work. The key is eliminating the moisture source permanently – otherwise, mold and odors will return even after cleaning.

Do you guarantee your basement waterproofing work?

Yes, we stand behind our waterproofing work with comprehensive warranties. Interior waterproofing systems come with warranties on both materials and workmanship. Exterior waterproofing includes warranties on membranes and installation. Specific warranty terms depend on the materials and methods used for your project. We’ll explain exactly what’s covered before starting work. Our goal is your complete confidence in the solution – if water gets in where it shouldn’t, we’ll make it right.

When is the best time to waterproof my basement?

The best time is before you have major water damage, but we understand most people call us after problems start. Spring and summer are ideal for exterior waterproofing because of better weather conditions. Interior waterproofing can be done year-round. Don’t wait for the next big storm to find out if your current water problems will get worse. Early intervention prevents expensive damage and gives you more scheduling flexibility. If you’re seeing any signs of water intrusion, address it now rather than hoping it resolves itself.
