About American Dry Basement Systems
Trusted Basement & Crawl Space Waterproofing Experts in Connecticut, Westchester, Putnam and Dutchess Counties in NY

Our Mission: Lasting Waterproofing. Honest Information. Zero Pressure.
At American Dry Basement Systems, our mission is to provide homeowners with accurate and honest waterproofing solutions — helping you reclaim your basement or crawl space from the damaging effects of water, moisture, and mold.
We believe in systems that:
- Eliminate water during even the heaviest rainstorms
- Protect the structural integrity of your home
- Meet building code compliance
- Make basements finish-ready
- No maintenance of sub-floor drainage pipes
- Are backed by a lifetime warranty against clogs and cracks
We’re not here to sell — we’re here to solve. Whether you’re dealing with a leaky basement wall or a damp crawl space, our experts will explain the best approach for your specific foundation needs. Sometimes, we’ll even suggest a DIY fix if it’s simple enough.
Our History: Waterproofing Since 1997
Since our founding in 1997, American Dry Basement Systems has continued to evolve with the most reliable materials, smart installation techniques, and honest education.
Key milestones include:
System Design: Our drainage pipe is carefully pitched in the "magic zone" - between the top and bottom of the footing - to prevent backup or overflow.
Engineering Tabs: Most waterproofers skip this step. We don't. Tabs protect your home's structural strength - even if it takes more time.
SuperCrete Concrete: Developed in-house, SuperCrete bonds at the molecular level to create a finish-ready surface that never cracks.
Green Solutions: From our dust-suppressing negative air scrubber to our proprietary EnviroBoot jackhammer attachment, we go above and beyond to protect your indoor air quality.
