Professional Waterproofing Services
With over 30 years of experience, our team has specialized in providing professional waterproofing services in Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. We use proprietary products and services to provide effective waterproofing solutions. Our team maintains full transparency and effective communication throughout the process. Here are some of our waterproofing services:
Foundation Waterproofing
Our team uses the finest materials and techniques to prevent water seepage into your home’s basement. We use proprietary products from our SafeEdge™ line to redirect excess water and pump it out of your basement. This system provides optimal drainage in order to prevent flooding, reduce moisture and mold growth, and avoid structural damage.
Interior Drainage System Installation
We install interior drainage systems to collect excess water from the surface where the wall and floor meet. These systems redirect water away from your foundation during flooding, preventing water damage.
Sump Pump Installation and Replacement
Our team installs the PHCC Pro Series line of sump pumps, which are industry-leading, energy-efficient, and warranty backed. They prevent groundwater from rising to the basement, protecting your property and belongings. If your current sump pump is malfunctioning or wearing out, our technicians will replace your damaged sump pump with a high-quality product.
Basement Dehumidifier Installation
We install Aprilaire® dehumidifiers to remove excess moisture from your basement and improve indoor air quality. Regulating moisture levels helps to prevent mold and mildew growth in your basement, and monitoring humidity helps protect the structural integrity and foundation materials.
Wet Basement Repair
A wet basement can be caused by cracks in your foundation, insufficient drainage system, poor waterproofing, hydrostatic pressure, or negative grading around your home. Our experts discover the underlying reasons causing water seepage in order to address them effectively. We install our SafeEdge™ water diversion system and Multi-Flow™ Drain Tile water drainage system to keep your basement dry throughout all seasons.
Foundation Crack Repair
Foundation cracks can result from expansive soil, poor construction, settlement, or heavy excavation. If the crack is minor, we can fix it to prevent water seepage. However, if you have large or multiple cracks, we identify the root cause and provide a comprehensive and personalized repair service to stabilize your foundation walls and prevent long-term damage.
Drain Tile Systems
Our team installs drain tile systems to prevent flooding during heavy rainfall or snow. This system redirects groundwater and helps to lower the water table around your home. It redirects water to the sump pit so that it can be pumped out of your home. Drain tile collects excess moisture from the ground and keeps it dry, preventing standing water and flooding.

Signs of Basement Damage in Homes
Trying to decide whether your basement needs waterproofing? Here are some of the signs that will help you identify water damage in your basement:
- Basement Flooding or Water Pools: If you notice basement floods or puddles after heavy rainfall or snow, your basement is not properly waterproofed. It’s important to address the cause of flooding immediately in order to protect the structural integrity of your home.
- Mold Infestation: Mold is more likely to grow in a damp, wet environment. Basement waterproofing reduces dampness and regulates humidity in order to prevent mold growth.
- Water Stains: Water stains are usually caused by condensation and poor ventilation. A basement waterproofing solution reduces the humidity level, preventing condensation and mold growth on your property.
- Musty Odors: Mold and mildew growth leads to musty odors and poor indoor air quality. Basement waterproofing removes excessive water from the basement or crawl space, which prevents mold growth and eradicates the musty odor caused by it.
- Bowing or Wet Walls: Bowing or wet walls indicate hydrostatic pressure that may lead to structural failure. Effective basement waterproofing solutions can stabilize bowed, bent, or wet walls.
- Cracked Walls Or Floors: Foundation shifting and settlement cause cracked walls or floors. If you see cracks in your foundation walls or floors, it’s time to reach out to us for reliable basement waterproofing solutions.
