In Frederick, MD, a homeowner contacted NV Waterproofing and Foundation Repair to address trip hazards caused by uneven driveway slabs. Uneven concrete not only creates safety risks but also diminishes the overall appearance of your property.
To resolve the issue, our team used the advanced PolyLevel® system to lift and level the concrete with precision. By drilling small, pea-sized holes into the slabs, we injected high-strength polyurethane foam that expanded to stabilize the surface and restore it to a safe, even position. The result? A smooth, level driveway with no more misaligned surfaces or tripping hazards.
To ensure long-term durability, we applied NexusPro® Joint Sealant to the seams. This high-performance sealant protects against water intrusion, preventing soil erosion and future shifting of the concrete. The after photo showcases the seamless, unified surface that not only looks great but is built to last.

A homeowner in Frederick, MD recently faced a common yet serious issue of bowing walls in their basement. This concern led them to contact us at NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair, recognizing a potential sign of foundation failure that needed immediate attention. A bowing wall not only threatens the integrity of the structure but can also lead to other costly damages if not addressed promptly. Upon receiving their call, our Customer Care Specialist promptly scheduled a home inspection. Our System Design Specialist then visited the residence, carefully inspecting the entire basement area. After a thorough assessment, we identified the pressure from outside forces causing the inward movement of the walls. We proposed installing our PowerBrace System as a reliable solution to stabilize the foundation walls. Our solution utilizes zinc-plated steel beams that are custom-fit to accommodate the precise height of the basement. These beams are anchored with heavy-duty brackets at both the floor level and first-floor framing, which provide the necessary counter-pressure to stabilize the walls. The PowerBrace System is designed to tighten over time, effectively eliminating further wall movement and offering peace of mind without the need for invasive procedures such as drilling or digging. With the homeowner's approval, our skilled production team set to work. We carried out the installation with utmost precision. The process was stress-free for the homeowner, as our team worked diligently, ensuring minimal disruption to their daily routine. Upon completion, not only were the walls stabilized, but the potential long-term risks were mitigated effectively. The outcome was a testament to our company's commitment to providing remarkable customer experience while delivering dependable solutions. We left the Frederick, MD home secure, with its walls safeguarded, reinforcing our promise of ensuring long-term hospitality and gratitude in addressing foundation issues.
When a homeowner from Frederick, MD, reached out to us with concerns about persistent water leakage in their unique earth-sheltered home, we knew we were facing an interesting challenge. This wasn't your everyday basement waterproofing job. The homeowner was facing issues due to water infiltrating their underground living space, requiring an innovative and effective solution. After contacting our Customer Care team, we scheduled a home inspection to better understand the nature of their dilemma. Our System Design Specialist visited the home, conducting a thorough analysis of the situation. We discovered that the primary issue was external water seepage, penetrating the earth-sheltered structure. Given the home's unique design, we puzzled over a tailored plan that would not only address the current water influx but also ensure long-term dryness and comfort. Our solution? A targeted approach focusing on the most affected 27-foot by 8-foot area. We undertook hand excavation down to approximately six feet, a painstaking process that allowed us to properly install our high-grade waterproofing system without disrupting the existing landscape and home structure more than necessary. The scope of the work included the installation of a robust membrane, specifically designed to seal out moisture and redirect water away from the structure, effectively neutralizing the potential for future leaks. The outcome was gratifying. By the time our production team wrapped up, employing meticulous efforts to install, test, and then clean up the site, the homeowner’s anxiety had turned into relief. Their unique earth-sheltered home was now fortified against the elements, ready to provide a drier, more secure living environment for years to come.
