Permanent solutions that protect your home, belongings, and peace of mind from basement flooding.
You’ll finally have a basement you can actually use. No more moving everything to higher shelves when rain’s in the forecast. No more of that musty smell creeping upstairs into your living space.
Your stored belongings stay safe and dry. Holiday decorations, family photos, tools, furniture – everything stays protected instead of getting ruined by surprise flooding.
The air quality throughout your entire house improves. When your basement stays dry, mold and mildew can’t take hold and spread those health-threatening spores through your home’s air system. You breathe easier, literally.
Academy Masonry has been solving basement water problems throughout Hyde Park and the greater Boston area for years. We understand how New England’s freeze-thaw cycles, clay soil, and seasonal water table changes create the perfect storm for basement flooding.
We’ve seen every type of water problem these older homes can throw at us. From hairline foundation cracks that turn into major leaks to full basement floods that destroy everything in their path.
That’s why we focus on permanent solutions, not quick patches that fail when you need them most. Your basement waterproofing needs to work during the wettest spring thaw and the heaviest summer storms.
First, we inspect your basement thoroughly to identify exactly where water is entering and why. Every crack, every seepage point, every potential problem area gets documented. No guessing, no assumptions.
Next, we create a comprehensive waterproofing plan. This might include interior basement waterproofing with professional-grade sealers, exterior foundation work, improved drainage systems, or sump pump installation depending on your specific situation.
Then we execute the solution using proven materials and techniques that work in New England’s challenging conditions. We seal foundation cracks properly, apply waterproof barriers that actually last, and ensure your drainage moves water away from your foundation effectively.
The result is a basement that stays dry year-round, protecting your home’s value and giving you the peace of mind you deserve.

Our basement waterproofing service addresses the root causes of water problems, not just the symptoms. We use foundation sealers that create lasting barriers against moisture penetration and install drainage systems that actually move water away from your foundation.
For Hyde Park homes, we often recommend both interior and exterior approaches. Interior basement waterproofing handles existing moisture issues and prevents future seepage. Exterior work addresses the source by keeping water from reaching your foundation walls in the first place.
We also handle the details that make the difference – proper grading around your foundation, effective gutter systems, and sump pump installation where needed. Every element works together to keep your basement dry during New England’s wettest seasons.
