Low cost Waterproofing

      A sump pump isn't always the best solution to solving your water problems. A more cost effective solution may be to simply correct the problem on the outside. Very often, water penetrates along the exterior perimeter of the foundation then leaks into the basement walls or floor. Adding concrete along the perimeter is a cheaper solution than a sump pump. Pitching the concrete away from the foundation works well as a waterproofing alternative.
     Displayed below,  we have installed concrete around this clients foundation which solved his waterproofing issues.

Basement Waterproofing tips

Many waterproofing contractors want to sell an expensive system. At Dependable Concrete, we first encourage the customer to repair the problem from the outside first.   It could be a simple re-routing or repair to a down spout.    The cost of a waterproof system that requires the installation of a sump pump is at minimum $4,000.  However, if installed correctly, a sump pump system will solve any water problem.  Later,  I will either post instructions or produce a video on how to do simple corrections to the perimeter of your foundation to reduce water penetration. Stay tuned.
