Consider the following list before installation.

The structural integrity of your foundation must be kept intact by your waterproofing system.

The dryness of your basement and effectiveness of your waterproofing system depends entirely on where the waterproofing system manages your groundwater.

The system needs the capacity necessary to manage the false water table (groundwater) that builds up on the outside of your walls and underneath your floor.

Is there maintenance? How often is it necessary? How much does it cost? What’s involved in the maintenance and why?

Is the system proposed, building code compliant? We recommend a call to your town-building inspector. Give him the details of the proposed waterproofing system and ask if it’s code compliant for your particular type of foundation.

Turn the most under-appreciated spaces in your home into a useful storage area.

Our propriety product, SuperCrete, is used whenever American Dry waterproofs a basement. It conjoins with the concrete slab at a molecular level making it a lot stronger and 100% water-repellent. We use the SuperCrete Method with our crawl space encapsulation projects to seal out moisture without restricting the underground water movement. The results are never less than remarkable.

Interior cracks forming on bare basement floor or walls are an indicator that your home is in danger of losing its structural integrity.

Cracks that appear inside and outside your home are the result of years of settling, but it comes to a point where it begins to disrupt your life inside your home.

Cracks lead to moisture leaks, mold spore growth, and mildew.

The most notable telltale sign are sheetrock wall cracks, windows and doors not shutting properly, or even a leaning chimney can be a warning. These events are not something you want to overlook.

Get your foundation inspected and stop cracks from speeding up your home's destructive cycle.
