When water reaches your foundation from the outside, through poor grading, a failed membrane, or saturated soil, the fix belongs outside too, not just masked from the inside.

What "specialized" actually means for exterior waterproofing at our company — not a marketing word, a set of specific practices.
Crews are trained in excavation depth, membrane application, and footing drain installation specific to exterior systems.
Local crews understand your region's soil composition and typical frost depth, both of which affect excavation planning significantly.
Pricing accounts for landscaping restoration where excavation disturbs existing beds or hardscape.
We apply rubberized asphalt or sheet membrane rated for permanent below-grade exposure, not a consumer coating that degrades in a season or two.
We don't run a one-size-fits-all playbook — every exterior waterproofing job starts from these core service components, adapted to what your property actually needs.
Drainage board over the membrane channels water 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.
Older homes often have drains that have silted in or collapsed over decades — we assess and replace where compromised.
Soil sloping toward the foundation sends every rainfall straight at your basement wall, regardless of how good the membrane below is.
We install well drains tied into the footing drain system with a clear cover to reduce debris.
Sealing from the exterior addresses hydrostatic pressure at the point of entry rather than relying solely on interior injection.
Four steps, start to finish — from your call to a backfilled, regraded foundation wall.
Photos of the affected area, texted ahead, help the technician plan equipment before arriving.
Technicians walk the full property perimeter before recommending excavation, checking grading and downspout placement.
A full grading and drainage evaluation identifies whether the fix needs excavation, drain repair, or grading correction alone.
Excavation sites are backfilled, compacted, and regraded to proper slope before the crew leaves, with landscaping restoration included.
What Lebanon, IN customers are saying after their exterior waterproofing service.
"They found our footing drain had completely collapsed after thirty years — explains why 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."
"Excavation crew was careful with our landscaping and put everything back better than it was before."
"They explained why interior injection alone wasn't going to solve our specific problem before recommending exterior work."
