Waterproofing Services For Your Virginia Beach Home

What do our professional waterproofing services include?

  • Crawl Space Encapsulation: This comprehensive waterproofing solution involves sealing your crawl space with a vapor barrier on the floor, walls, and ceiling. This effectively prevents moisture from entering and protects your home’s foundation.

  • French Drain Installation: This waterproofing system redirects water away from your home’s foundation, preventing it from seeping into the lower levels of the house and causing structural damage.

  • Sump Pump Installation: For Virginia Beach homes at risk of flooding, a sump pump is essential waterproofing protection. It pumps excess water out of a sump pit and away from your home’s foundation.

  • Crawl Space Dehumidifier Installation: These specialized devices remove excess moisture from the air in your crawl space. They are particularly useful in Virginia Beach’s humid climate and homes with a history of moisture issues.

In addition to the above waterproofing services, we can address issues with fungi that arise after flooding or prolonged exposure to moisture. You can count on our team to address the source of moisture, sanitize the affected area, and waterproof your home for lasting protection.

Why Is Professional Waterproofing Essential For Virginia Beach Homes?

Excess moisture can be a significant problem for homes, especially in coastal Virginia Beach where we frequently experience high humidity and heavy rain. One of the biggest issues is structural damage. Water is notorious for rotting, decaying, and warping wood. This means high humidity, gradual water accumulation, and flooding can all compromise your home’s supporting structures.

Other problems include:

  • Mold and mildew: Excessive moisture can create an ideal environment for mold and mildew to thrive. This poses health risks to your household, as mold spores can cause respiratory issues. It also impacts your home’s aesthetic.

  • Fungi: Fungi grow in moist areas. If your home has a fungal problem, it could cause extensive damage and compromise your household’s health.

  • Pest infestations: Bugs and rodents like damp environments and are likelier to invade homes where they find ample moisture.

  • Poor indoor air quality: High humidity levels impact indoor air quality, worsening respiratory conditions and decreasing your home’s comfort.

  • Damage to home furnishings and belongings: Moisture can damage furniture, carpets, and other belongings, necessitating costly replacements and repairs.

  • HVAC overloads: Excessive moisture can strain HVAC systems, leading to increased energy use and potential malfunctions.

  • Basement and crawl space issues: Coastal Virginia is prone to flooding and standing water, which can seep into basements and crawl spaces, causing water damage and other issues.
