Exterior waterproofing addresses the source directly: excavation, membrane application, and footing drainage designed to keep water away from the wall in the first place.

What "specialized" actually means for exterior waterproofing at our company — not a marketing word, a set of specific practices.
Crews are trained in proper excavation depth, membrane application technique, and footing drain installation specific to exterior waterproofing systems.
Active water intrusion visible from outside — pooling against the foundation, saturated soil — moves to priority scheduling.
Pricing accounts for landscaping restoration where excavation disturbs existing beds or hardscape.
Drainage board installed over the membrane channels water down to the footing drain rather than letting hydrostatic pressure build against the wall.
Each service below is scoped specifically to exterior waterproofing, not a generic waterproofing menu with the name swapped in.
Drainage board goes over the membrane to create a channel for water to travel down to the footing drain instead of pressing against the wall. This is the most thorough exterior fix available and typically carries the longest service life of any waterproofing method.
Older homes often have footing drains that have silted in or collapsed over decades — we assess existing drain condition and replace where compromised.
We regrade the perimeter to direct water away from the structure and coordinate downspout extensions as part of a complete exterior fix.
We install window well drains tied into the footing drain system, plus a clear cover to reduce debris accumulation.
Cracks and cold joints exposed during excavation get treated directly at the source, from the outside, before the membrane goes over them.
Here's what happens between your call and a completed exterior fix.
Photos of the affected exterior area, texted ahead of the visit, help the technician plan equipment needs before arriving.
You'll get a text confirmation with an arrival window and any documents needed, like utility locate authorization.
A full grading and drainage evaluation identifies whether the fix needs full excavation, footing drain repair, or grading correction alone.
Membrane and footing drain work carries a written warranty against failure at the treated wall section.
What Normandy, TN customers are saying after their exterior waterproofing service.
"They found our footing drain had completely collapsed after thirty years — explains why the interior fixes never fully worked before."
"Regraded the whole side yard and extended our downspouts as part of the job. Haven't seen water against that wall since."
