Basement Waterproofing You Can Trust

Negative-side Sealant
This involves "painting" the basement walls and floors with a waterproof coating that's meant to seal out the moisture. It applies directly to the concrete's surface with a brush or roller and is often applied when a homeowner is preparing for basement finishing. NOT a good idea! |
Exterior Excavation
This involves digging out the entire perimeter of the basement outside, installing a new footing drain, and possibly adding a waterproof coating on the walls. This type of installation has been used for many decades—a drain of this type is generally installed when the home is built. |
Interior Baseboard System
Installs on top of the basement floor with a drain that runs along the basement walls. Collects water and sends it to a sump pump system. No jackhammering is required, and is the only appropriate solution for a monolithic basement floor. |
Interior Subfloor Drain
Installs underneath the basement floor, with a drain that runs along the basement walls. Collects water and sends it to a sump pump system. The system can receive water from the wall/floor joint, from underneath the floor and from the walls themselves. |

  If your basement floor cannot be jackhammered, as is the case with a monolithic floor where the floor and foundation footing are poured as one piece, DryTrak is the only answer for your home. As a system that installs on top of the basement floor, DryTrak collects water and directs it to your sump pump with no need for the floor's perimeter to be jackhammered.
