Protect your home and family with proven waterproofing solutions that actually work long-term.
You’ll finally have peace of mind during heavy rains. No more rushing downstairs to check for water or moving belongings to higher shelves every time the forecast calls for storms.
Your basement becomes usable space again. Whether you need storage, a workshop, or finished living area, you can actually use the space without worrying about moisture damage or that persistent musty smell.
The air quality throughout your entire home improves. When basement moisture is controlled, you’re not dealing with mold concerns or that damp feeling that seems to creep through the whole house. Your family breathes easier, and your home feels more comfortable year-round.
We at Academy Masonry have been solving foundation and waterproofing problems for Dorchester Center homeowners who need reliable solutions. We understand how New England weather affects older foundations and what it takes to keep basements dry through our wet springs and heavy storm seasons.
You’re working with licensed professionals who’ve seen every type of basement water problem this area throws at us. We don’t just patch the problem – we fix it right so you don’t have to deal with it again.
First, we inspect your basement to identify exactly where water is entering and why. This isn’t a quick glance – we’re looking at foundation walls, floor joints, cracks, and drainage patterns to understand the complete picture.
Next, we explain what we found and recommend the right combination of solutions. This might include interior or exterior waterproofing, foundation sealing, drainage improvements, or sump pump installation. You’ll know exactly what needs to be done and why.
Then we get to work using proven waterproofing methods and quality materials. We handle everything from crack repair to full perimeter drainage systems. When we’re finished, you’ll have a basement that stays dry and a clear understanding of how to maintain it.
Ready to get started?
You get a comprehensive approach that addresses your specific water problems. We handle interior basement waterproofing with high-quality sealants, exterior foundation sealing when needed, and proper drainage solutions to direct water away from your foundation.
Our work includes crack repair using methods that actually last, not temporary patches that fail after the next freeze-thaw cycle. If your situation requires sump pump installation or drainage system improvements, we handle that too.
Every job comes with clear explanations of what we’re doing and why. You’ll understand how to maintain your waterproofed basement and what to watch for. We back our work because we use the right materials and methods the first time.
