Every moisture problem has a different source. We identify yours specifically before we quote anything β then we deploy the right system, not the most expensive one.

Interior French Drain & Perimeter Drainage Systems
Interior drain tile systems collect groundwater at the footing level before it enters your living space. We saw-cut the slab perimeter, excavate to the footing, install gravel-bed perforated pipe, and tie it into a sump system with battery backup β so you stay dry even during power outages.
Our sub-slab drainage systems use schedule 40 perforated PVC pipe in a stone bed, designed to handle high-volume water tables.

Exterior Foundation Coating & Drainage Board Installation
Exterior waterproofing is the most comprehensive solution available β stopping water before it contacts your foundation wall. We excavate to the footing, apply a rubberized polymer membrane to the exterior foundation face, install dimple-mat drainage board, and backfill with clean crushed stone to redirect surface water away from the structure.
We use SilkOate, UMARK, and other commercial-grade membrane systems β not the paint-on damp-proofing that deteriorates within a few years.

Foundation Crack Injection β Polyurethane & Epoxy Systems
Poured concrete foundation cracks are repaired from the interior using high-pressure polyurethane or epoxy injection β the appropriate chemistry depends on whether the crack is actively leaking or dry. Polyurethane foam expands into wet, actively leaking cracks and cures flexible, accommodating minor future movement. Epoxy injection is used in dry cracks where structural bond restoration is the goal.
Block wall repointing involves removing deteriorated mortar joints to a minimum depth of 3/4 inch and repacking with waterproof hydraulic mortar.

Crawl Space Encapsulation & Vapor Barrier Systems
Crawl spaces are the most overlooked moisture source in residential structures. An unencapsulated crawl space β even one that "never floods" β pumps humid air into your living area through the stack effect, raising indoor humidity, feeding mold growth in floor joists, and accelerating wood rot in your subfloor structure. Full encapsulation seals that air pathway permanently.
Encapsulation turns your crawl space from an uncontrolled dirt floor into a semi-conditioned space.

Primary & Backup Sump Pump Systems for Rochester Homes
The sump pit itself matters as much as the pump. We construct 18-inch diameter pits with a gravel bed at the base for proper water collection, sealed lids to prevent vapor and radon entry, and a discharge line that terminates a minimum of 10 feet from the foundation at a positive-grade daylight point.
For finished basements and properties with high groundwater, we recommend a dual-pump system: a primary submersible at normal operating level and a pedestal backup set two inches higher.

Egress Window Waterproofing & Well Cover Systems
We excavate and regrade window wells to the proper dimension, install a gravel drain bed with a perforated pipe tied into your perimeter drainage system, and apply waterproof flashing around the window frame β stopping the entry point at the source instead of managing it inside.
Egress window installations create a significant opening in your foundation wall, and sealing the rough opening properly is as important as the window itself.
