You’re not just keeping water out. You’re protecting everything you’ve stored down there, avoiding mold that makes your family sick, and keeping your foundation from cracking under pressure.
A dry basement means you can actually use that space. No more avoiding it after heavy rain. No more wondering if that musty smell is going to spread upstairs. No more worrying about what a buyer’s inspector will find when you’re ready to sell.
In Upper Providence, PA, where we get over 35 inches of rain a year and sit on soil that holds moisture like a sponge, your basement is under constant attack. The homes here weren’t all built with modern waterproofing. That’s why so many basements leak, crack, or stay damp year-round. Fixing it now means you stop the damage before it gets expensive.
We’re based in Plymouth Meeting and serve Upper Providence and the surrounding Montgomery County area. We’re a family-run waterproofing company, not a national franchise that got bought out and ships in crews from three states over.
We hold an active Pennsylvania contractor license (PA170991) and rank in the top 9% of licensed contractors in the state. Every job comes with a lifetime transferable warranty because we plan on being here when you need us. We deal with the same storms, the same soil, and the same old basements you do.
First, we come out and look at your basement. Not a sales pitch. An actual inspection. We’re looking for where the water’s coming in, why it’s happening, and what’s going to fix it for good.
Then we tell you what we found and what it’ll take to fix it. If you need interior drainage, exterior waterproofing, a sump pump, or foundation crack sealing, we’ll explain why and show you what it costs. No surprises later.
Once you’re ready, we schedule the work and get it done right. That means digging where we need to dig, sealing what needs sealing, and installing systems that actually work when it rains. When we’re finished, we test everything, clean up, and make sure you know how to maintain it. Then we back it with a lifetime warranty and move on to the next job.

We handle interior and exterior waterproofing, foundation crack repair, crawl space encapsulation, sump pump installation, and mold remediation. If water’s getting into your basement, we’ve seen it before and we know how to stop it.
Upper Providence sits on soil that ranges from silt loam to clay, and all of it shifts when it gets wet. That movement cracks foundations, pushes water through basement walls, and creates gaps where moisture seeps in. Add in a high water table in some areas and older homes that were never waterproofed properly, and you’ve got a recipe for chronic dampness.
We don’t just patch the problem. We find the source, fix the structure, and install drainage or waterproofing systems that handle the specific conditions your home is dealing with. That’s how basements stay dry after we leave, even during the heaviest storms Pennsylvania throws at us.
It depends on what’s wrong and how big your basement is. Interior drainage systems usually run a few thousand dollars. Exterior waterproofing costs more because we’re excavating around your foundation. Crack sealing is less. Sump pump installation is somewhere in the middle.
The range for most basement water damage repair in the U.S. is between $1,600 and $6,900, but that’s a wide spread. The only way to know what your job will cost is to have someone come out, look at your basement, and give you a real number based on what needs to happen.
We don’t do estimates over the phone because every basement is different. Upper Providence homes vary in age, soil conditions, and how they were originally built. What works for one house might not work for yours. We’d rather spend 30 minutes at your place and give you an accurate price than guess and be wrong.
Most interior jobs take one to three days depending on the size of your basement and what we’re installing. Exterior waterproofing takes longer because we’re digging around your foundation, usually three to five days. Crack sealing can be done in a few hours if that’s all you need.
Weather can slow things down if we’re working outside. We’re not going to dig a trench in a rainstorm and then try to waterproof it. That defeats the purpose. We’ll schedule around the forecast and let you know if we need to push a day or two.
Once we start, we work straight through until it’s done. We’re not the kind of crew that shows up for two hours, disappears for a week, and then comes back. You’ll know the timeline before we start, and we’ll stick to it unless something unusual comes up.
Waterproofing stops the moisture that mold needs to grow. If your basement stays dry, mold doesn’t have a chance. But if you already have mold, waterproofing alone won’t kill it. You need mold remediation first, then waterproofing to make sure it doesn’t come back.
Mold grows in dark, damp spaces, and a wet basement in Upper Providence, PA is perfect for it. It hides behind walls, under carpet, and inside insulation. You might not see it, but you’ll smell it. And if anyone in your house has allergies or asthma, mold makes it worse.
We offer mold remediation as part of our service because it’s pointless to waterproof over an active mold problem. We remove it, treat the area, and then install the waterproofing systems that keep your basement dry long-term. That’s how you actually solve the problem instead of just covering it up.
Yes. Every waterproofing job we do comes with a lifetime transferable warranty. That means if you sell your house, the warranty goes with it. It’s one less thing a buyer’s inspector will flag, and it adds value when you’re ready to move.
The warranty covers the work we did and the systems we installed. If something fails because of how we installed it, we come back and fix it at no cost to you. It doesn’t cover damage from things like a tree root punching through your foundation or a sump pump that wasn’t maintained. But if our work fails, we make it right.
Most national companies offer warranties too, but good luck getting them to honor it if they’ve been bought out or the local office closed. We’re a family-run business based in Montgomery County. We’re not going anywhere, and we stand behind what we do.
Interior waterproofing manages water that’s already made it through your foundation. We install drainage systems along the inside perimeter of your basement, direct the water to a sump pump, and pump it out before it floods your floor. It works, it’s less expensive than exterior work, and it doesn’t require digging up your yard.
Exterior waterproofing stops water before it ever reaches your foundation. We excavate around the outside of your basement, apply a waterproof membrane to the walls, install drainage at the footing level, and backfill everything. It’s more invasive and costs more, but it’s the most effective way to keep water out.
Which one you need depends on where the water’s coming from and how bad the problem is. Sometimes interior drainage is enough. Sometimes you need exterior waterproofing to actually solve it. We’ll tell you which one makes sense for your basement after we’ve looked at it.
If you see water on your basement floor after it rains, you need waterproofing. If you smell mold or mustiness, you probably have moisture coming in even if you don’t see standing water. If you notice white chalky deposits on your walls (that’s efflorescence, which means water is pushing through), you need waterproofing.
Cracks in your foundation walls or floor are another sign. Not every crack leaks, but in Upper Providence, PA, where the soil stays wet and shifts with the seasons, cracks tend to get worse over time. Catching them early saves you money and prevents bigger structural problems down the road.
Even if your basement isn’t flooded, chronic dampness is a problem. It ruins anything you store down there, makes your home harder to heat and cool, and lowers your property value. Most basements in Pennsylvania will deal with moisture at some point. The question is whether you fix it now or wait until the damage is worse.
