Protect Your Foundation from the Outside In

Exterior waterproofing starts by excavating the foundation, sealing the wall, and installing drainage that moves water away from your home.

When water pressure builds outside your foundation, interior patches often only hide the symptom. Exterior basement waterproofing addresses the problem where water starts.

Flood Busters uses specialized waterproofing membranes, new drain tile, drainage rock, and filter fabric to create a system designed for your property and built for long-term performance.

Benefits of Exterior Waterproofing

Water After Heavy Rain

Water that appears during storms or spring melt often points to pressure building against the outside of the foundation.

Damp Basement Walls

Staining, efflorescence, musty odours, or recurring dampness can signal that exterior moisture control is failing.

Old or Clogged Drain Tile

Drainage systems can fail when soil migrates into stone and drain tile. Filter fabric helps protect the new system.

How exterior waterproofing works

A Complete System for Foundation Water Control

Membranes, drain tile, drainage rock, and filter fabric work together to move water away from your foundation.

Apply waterproofing membranes

Specialized membranes are installed to protect the foundation wall and help stop water before it enters the basement.
