Exterior Waterproofing in Mclean, VA
Challenge
A homeowner in McLean, VA, faced persistent water intrusion in the basement of their brick colonial home. Heavy rains led to water seepage that threatened both stored belongings and the integrity of the foundation. The customer wanted a permanent basement waterproofing solution that would stop water from entering the foundation altogether, emphasizing the need for exterior waterproofing instead of typical interior methods.
Solution
Our basement waterproofing experts identified the root cause by excavating around the foundation to locate entry points for water. We then installed a high-performance exterior waterproofing membrane to completely seal the brick foundation, ensuring a robust barrier against future leaks. After the exterior waterproofing system was in place, we restored the landscape by backfilling with dirt and seeding the area to maintain the property’s appearance. The result was a permanently dry basement thanks to targeted exterior waterproofing, and the customer was thoroughly satisfied with the outcome.
