Protect your home and family from basement flooding, moisture damage, and costly foundation repairs.
You get your space back. No more avoiding the basement because of that musty smell or worrying about what you’ll find after the next heavy rain.
Your stored belongings stay safe and dry. Holiday decorations, family photos, tools, and equipment aren’t at risk anymore. You can actually use that square footage for something other than water damage anxiety.
The air quality in your entire home improves. When moisture and mold aren’t growing downstairs, you’re not breathing it upstairs either. Your family’s health matters, and a properly waterproofed basement protects everyone under your roof.
We’ve been handling foundation and waterproofing work in East Somerville for years. We understand how these older homes behave during New England’s wet seasons and what it takes to keep water where it belongs.
Every basement tells a story about how water moves around your property. We’ve seen the common problem areas in this neighborhood and know which solutions actually work long-term versus quick fixes that fail when you need them most.
You’re not getting a generic approach. You’re getting someone who understands East Somerville properties and has the experience to back up the work with real results.
First, we inspect your basement to identify exactly where water is entering and why. This isn’t guesswork – we need to understand the source before we can solve the problem permanently.
Next, we address any existing cracks or damage in your foundation walls. These get properly sealed with professional-grade materials that can handle the pressure and movement that comes with settling and seasonal changes.
Then we apply the appropriate waterproofing system for your situation. This might involve interior sealing, exterior waterproofing, or drainage solutions like sump pump installation. The approach depends on your specific water issues and your property’s layout.
Finally, we test everything to make sure water stays out. You’ll know exactly what we did and how to maintain your newly protected basement.
