Waterproofing Services We Offer in Monroeville
Based on your home’s layout, foundation type, drainage, and basement issues, we may recommend one or more of the following waterproofing solutions:
Basement Waterproofing
Interior Drainage Systems
When water enters through the floor-wall joint or rises up through the slab, an interior drainage system helps stop it before it spreads across your basement. A drainage channel collects the water and directs it to your sump pump, keeping your basement drier and better protected.
Sump Pump Installation
We install reliable sump pump systems that collect water from your drainage system and move it safely away from your home. For added protection, we can also recommend backup pump options to help keep your basement protected during power outages or severe storms.
Foundation Crack Repair Service
Poured concrete or block foundations develop cracks over time. We locate them, including those that are not obvious from the inside, and seal them so water cannot continue to work its way through.
Bowing Wall Stabilization
Foundation walls can begin to bow when soil pressure builds up against them over time. By the time the movement becomes visible, the wall may have already been under stress for years.
Our Grip-Tite wall anchor system is designed to stop further movement and stabilize the wall before the damage gets worse, helping protect the structure of your home long term.
Yard Drainage
Poor grading and inadequate drainage around the foundation direct surface water straight toward your home. We design yard drainage systems that intercept that water and redirect it away from the structure entirely.
Process
Here’s How We Make Your Basement Waterproof
On-Site Inspection
We walk through your wet basement and your home’s exterior. Our team looks at how your foundation was built, where water is entering, and what conditions are contributing to the problem.
Custom Basement Waterproofing Solutions
After the inspection, we put together a basement waterproofing plan based on the current condition of your basement and foundation.
Professional Installation
Our team of certified technicians correct the water problem by opening the floor, setting drainage, installing or replacing pump equipment, sealing entry points, or reinforcing affected areas.

When the work is completed, we walk through everything with you so you understand what was installed, how it works, and what to expect going forward.

Choosing the Right Waterproofing Approach
The right waterproofing solution starts with one question: where is the water coming from?
Before choosing a repair, it’s essential to identify how the water is entering and whether the problem is inside the basement, outside around the foundation, or both.
Interior vs. Exterior Waterproofing
Interior waterproofing is usually best when water enters at the floor-wall joint, rises through the slab, or spreads along the basement perimeter. It collects the water inside and sends it to a sump pump.
Exterior waterproofing is considered when water is entering directly through the outside wall or when grading, downspouts, or surface drainage are pushing water against one area of the foundation.
Hydrostatic Pressure and Why It Keeps Coming Back
Clay-heavy soil in eastern Allegheny County holds water after rain. As that soil becomes saturated, it pushes against basement walls and under the slab. Water then finds the weakest opening, such as a crack, block joint, pipe penetration, or floor seam.
If soil pressure is the cause, the fix usually needs drainage and pumping. In such cases, patching won’t work.
Why Sealants Are a Temporary Measure
Sealants may slow a small leak, but they do not remove the pressure behind the wall or under the floor. When water keeps building up, it often reappears through the next weakest spot.
Use sealants only for limited, isolated cracks. For recurring seepage, floor-joint leaks, or widespread dampness, a drainage system is usually the more reliable solution.
