Foundation
drainage.

Wet basement, water in the crawlspace, efflorescence on the walls — nine times out of ten it’s the perimeter drain. We dig down, replace failed weeping tile, re-waterproof, lay drain rock, and backfill.

What we do

What’s in scope.

01

Perimeter Excavation

Dig down to footing depth around the affected wall(s).

02

Failed Weeping Tile Replacement

Old crushed or clogged weeping tile out, new perforated pipe in.

03

Foundation Wall Waterproofing

Wall cleaned, sealed, and membraned before backfill.

04

Drain Rock & Backfill

Clean drain rock around the new tile, then engineered backfill.

05

Sump Connection

Tile tied to a sump pit or daylighted to grade as appropriate.

06

Re-Grade for Surface Drainage

Final grade pulled away from the foundation so water doesn’t pool again.

Four steps.
No surprises.

01

Site Visit

We walk the site with you, talk through the scope, and flag anything that’ll affect the price or the schedule.

Written Quote

A clear, written quote — no surprise add-ons once the crew is on site.

Get to Work

We mobilize, do the work to spec, and keep the site tidy. One foreman. One crew. No sub-chains.

04

Walk & Sign-off

Final walk-through, cleanup, and sign-off — you know what you got and you paid what we quoted.

FAQ

Common questions.

How do I know if it’s the drain? +
Wet basement after every rain, white efflorescence on basement walls, mold smell in the crawlspace. The drain rock is clogged or the weeping tile has crushed.
Do I have to dig the whole perimeter? +
Sometimes only one wall is the issue — we’ll trace it back. Whole perimeter is a worst case.
Will my landscaping survive? +
We work to preserve what we can, but anything within ~3 ft of the foundation has to come up. We re-grade after backfill.
