prevent foundation water issues

Good news is that water intrusion can often be remedied and prevented with the right solutions. At AuthentiCrete Construction, we offer proven methods to address and protect your foundation from water damage.

Exterior waterproofing involves applying a waterproof barrier to the outside of your foundation. This solution prevents water from seeping through the walls and protects against hydrostatic pressure.

A French Drain system redirects water away from the foundation by using perforated pipes buried in gravel. This reduces the amount of water pooling near your home, minimizing pressure on the foundation.

Regrading the land around your home ensures that water flows away from the foundation rather than toward it. This is a simple yet highly effective way to reduce water intrusion.

For homes with basements, installing a sump pump is a great solution. This device collects water that enters the basement and pumps it out before it can cause damage.

Ensuring your gutters are clean and equipped with extensions to direct water far from foundation is a quick fix with long-term benefits.
