Waterproofing services in Roswell
Waterproofing is a loose word. It covers sealing a crawl space, draining a basement, fixing one leaking crack and moving rain away from the house. Each job has its own page here.
You talk with an independent local waterproofing company. Roswell Crawl Space is a referral service and does none of the work itself.
Under the house
Damp air, standing water and ruined insulation below the floor.
Crawl space encapsulation
The soil and foundation walls are wrapped, the vents shut and the air dried by machine, so the framing above stays dry.
Crawl space repair
For puddles below the floor, batts lying on the dirt and joists that read wet: trace the source, then put it right.
In the basement
Houses built into a slope often have one or two walls below ground. These pages cover water that comes through or under them.
Basement waterproofing
A channel cut along the slab edge gathers seepage where the wall meets the floor and feeds it to a pump.
Exterior waterproofing
The wet wall is dug out, coated and drained at its base, then the trench is refilled so the surface sheds rain.
Basement leak repair
A single crack, pipe hole or window well traced to its entry point and closed off.
Wet basement
Clammy walls or chalky deposits and no obvious drip: sort out the cause before paying for a cure.
Pumps and the yard
Water that is collected has to go somewhere, and rain that never reaches the wall never needs pumping.
Sump pump installation
Basin, pump, check valve and a battery-fed second pump for the storm that knocks the power out.
Yard drainage and French drains
Reshaped soil, piped downspouts and gravel trenches that carry rain off the lot ahead of the foundation.
Not sure which one you need?
That is normal, and you do not have to decide before you call. The list of signs starts from what you notice in the house. A company that comes out to look should explain which of these jobs it recommends and why the others do not fit.
