Safewall Waterproofing Panels
Safewall panels run along interior foundation walls. These panels prevent moisture related problems (e.g., resisting mold, mildew, and bacteria) and condensation in your basement by directing water into your drainage system. Our panels are fire-rated Class-C and don’t fade, chip, or peel off.
Roughcasting
Roughcasting is a long-lasting interior basement wall solution that helps keep moisture out and gives the space a cleaner, more finished look.
We start by installing a vapor barrier to help keep the walls dry and resist mold and bacteria. Then we attach galvanized mesh for added strength and apply two coats of Portland mortar, finished with a brushed texture for a neat appearance.
Once the system has fully cured, it can be painted over and tied into an interior French drain for a complete basement waterproofing solution.
Flexi-Seal Reinforced Vapor Barrier
Flexi-Seal is a reinforced barrier that blocks ground vapors and incidental moisture in basements and crawl spaces. It includes an antimicrobial additive with a 99.9% reduction in common mold and fungal strains. It is durable, tear-resistant, and offers a polished look.
Process
How We Apply Interior Wall Coatings
Inspection and Diagnosis
Our team looks for cracks, grading issues, window well drainage, and hydrostatic pressure to find out the actual source of moisture.
Surface Preparation
We remove loose material, treat efflorescence, and prep the surface so the coating bonds correctly. A coating applied over a dirty or unstable wall won’t hold.
Coating Application by Certified Professional
Our in-house team applies the basement wall coating to the prepared wall.
Walkthrough and Next Steps
After the application, we walk you through the results and explain what to watch for. If the moisture problem requires additional work, we will clearly explain the options.

Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs
Are basement wall coatings permanent?
A properly applied coating on a well-prepared basement wall can last many years. The outcome depends on the condition of the wall and the source of the moisture.
Will a wall coating stop water from coming through cracks?
Small hairline cracks can often be addressed during the coating process. Active water coming through larger cracks or joints typically requires a proper drainage solution.
How long does it take to apply coatings on basement walls?
Wall coating application can be done within one to two days, depending on the size of your basement.
Do I need to clear out my basement beforehand?
We work around the contents of your basement as much as possible and protect the space while we work. However, it is best to remove hindrances and delicate items before the team arrives.
Does insurance cover this type of work?
Homeowner’s insurance generally does not cover basement waterproofing or wall treatments. However, we offer financing to qualified buyers through Dollar Bank.
