How We Stop Water Problems

First, we come out to see what’s actually happening with your basement. Not just the obvious water you can see, but where it’s coming from and why your previous attempts haven’t worked. This inspection covers both inside and outside factors affecting your foundation.

Next, we explain exactly what needs to happen to solve your specific situation. Some basements need interior waterproofing, others need exterior work, and many need both. Our masonry background means we can handle foundation repairs that other waterproofing companies have to subcontract out.

The installation happens with minimal disruption to your daily routine. We protect your property, complete the work efficiently, and clean up thoroughly. You get a waterproofing system designed for your specific basement and Long Island’s unique conditions, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

What's Included in Professional Waterproofing

Our basement waterproofing services cover everything needed to keep your basement dry. Interior waterproofing includes proper drainage systems, sump pump installation when needed, and basement wall sealing that actually bonds to your foundation walls.

Exterior basement waterproofing tackles the problem at its source. This includes foundation excavation when necessary, exterior basement waterproofing membrane application, and proper drainage around your foundation. Our masonry expertise means we can also handle any foundation repairs discovered during the waterproofing process.

You also get the peace of mind that comes from working with contractors who understand Long Island’s building requirements and soil conditions. We know how water behaves in North New Hyde Park’s sandy soil and design solutions that work with your property’s specific challenges, not against them.

Basement waterproofing costs vary significantly based on your specific situation, but most North New Hyde Park homeowners invest between $3,000 and $15,000 for professional waterproofing. Interior-only solutions typically cost less than exterior waterproofing, which requires excavation. The size of your basement, severity of water problems, and whether foundation repairs are needed all affect the final cost. We provide detailed estimates after inspecting your basement because cookie-cutter pricing often leads to surprise costs later. The investment pays for itself by preventing expensive water damage, protecting your belongings, and maintaining your home’s value.
The best choice depends on where your water problems originate and your specific situation. Interior waterproofing works well for minor seepage and provides excellent results when exterior work isn’t feasible. Exterior waterproofing addresses water at its source before it reaches your foundation walls, making it the most comprehensive solution for serious water problems. Many North New Hyde Park homes benefit from both approaches working together. Our inspection reveals whether your foundation has exterior issues that interior-only solutions can’t address. Our masonry expertise helps identify foundation problems that affect waterproofing effectiveness, ensuring you get the right solution the first time.
Most interior basement waterproofing projects take 2-4 days to complete, depending on your basement’s size and complexity. Exterior waterproofing typically requires 3-7 days due to excavation and proper curing time for materials. Weather can affect exterior work schedules, especially during Long Island’s wet seasons. We schedule projects to minimize disruption to your routine and keep you informed throughout the process. We don’t rush critical steps like proper surface preparation and material curing that ensure long-term effectiveness. The timeline includes thorough cleanup, so your property looks better than when we started, not like a construction zone.
Properly installed waterproofing eliminates the moisture that causes mold growth and musty odors, but existing mold needs separate remediation before waterproofing begins. We can recommend trusted mold remediation specialists when needed. Once waterproofing is complete and moisture levels drop, new mold growth stops and odors gradually disappear as the basement stays dry. The key is addressing both the water source and existing moisture in basement materials. Some homeowners notice improvement within weeks, while others see gradual changes over several months as materials fully dry out. Proper ventilation and humidity control complement waterproofing for the best air quality results.
Yes, we stand behind our waterproofing work with warranties that cover both materials and installation. Warranty terms vary based on the specific waterproofing methods used and your basement’s conditions, but they typically range from several years to decades for different system components. The warranty covers water infiltration through properly waterproofed areas, not new damage from sources like plumbing leaks or foundation settling. We explain warranty coverage in detail before starting work, so you understand exactly what’s protected. We also provide maintenance recommendations that help ensure your waterproofing system performs effectively throughout its warranty period and beyond.
DIY basement waterproofing products exist, but they rarely solve serious water problems permanently. Professional waterproofing requires understanding water flow patterns, proper surface preparation, and installation techniques that ensure long-term effectiveness. Many North New Hyde Park homeowners who attempt DIY solutions end up calling professionals after their efforts fail during the next heavy rain. We regularly repair failed DIY attempts, which often costs more than doing it right initially. Professional waterproofing includes proper drainage design, quality materials, and installation expertise that DIY approaches can’t match. Unless you’re dealing with very minor moisture issues, professional installation provides better results and long-term value.
