About This Service
Why Concrete Waterproofing?
Protect your investment with professional concrete waterproofing built to last. NYC's climate exposure causes cracks, leaks, and structural damage through freeze-thaw cycles, making waterproofing essential for basements, parking structures, foundations, and any concrete exposed to moisture. Our waterproofing systems use military-grade technology employed by U.S. military branches, airports, and industrial facilities to prevent water infiltration, vapor transmission, and moisture-related damage permanently. Our advanced technology enables permanent repairs that previously required complete re-installation. We use protective coatings with nanocrystals that penetrate porous concrete surfaces, creating a deep-seated barrier against water intrusion rather than just a surface coating. This penetrating technology means the waterproofing becomes part of the concrete itself, providing decades of reliable protection that cannot be worn away by traffic or surface abrasion. Our waterproofing systems feature seamless application that reduces water intrusion risk at every point, rapid return to service with fast curing in any weather conditions, and elastomeric properties designed for movement-heavy surfaces like parking decks and bridge structures. The formulations are solvent-free, low-odor, and zero VOC for safe application in occupied buildings. Slip-resistant finishes are available, and the systems offer easy renewal and low maintenance over their 10-25+ year service life. Whether you need to protect a basement, foundation, commercial space, or industrial facility, our waterproofing solutions are engineered specifically for NYC's demanding climate conditions.

Step by Step
Our Concrete Waterproofing Process
Moisture Assessment
Comprehensive moisture testing and evaluation of water intrusion sources. We identify all points of water entry, assess the severity of existing damage, and determine which waterproofing system will provide optimal protection for your specific conditions.
Surface Preparation
Thorough cleaning, crack repair, and surface profiling for waterproofing adhesion. All existing mold, mildew, efflorescence, and contaminants are removed. Cracks and joints are repaired with appropriate sealants to create a continuous surface for waterproofing application.
System Selection
Recommendation of the optimal waterproofing system for your specific conditions. Options include penetrating nanocrystal sealers, crystalline waterproofing, sheet membranes, liquid-applied membranes, and cementitious waterproofing, each selected based on your structure's exposure and requirements.
Waterproofing Application
Professional application of the selected system using military-grade materials. Nanocrystal coatings penetrate into the porous concrete surface for permanent protection. Seamless application techniques eliminate potential failure points. Elastomeric properties accommodate structural movement.
Verification & Completion
Post-application testing verifies waterproofing performance. Fast curing allows rapid return to service regardless of weather conditions. We provide detailed maintenance guidelines to ensure your waterproofing system delivers its full 10-25+ year service life.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Questions about epoxy flooring, concrete polishing, or our process? Here are the answers.
NYC's climate exposure causes cracks, leaks, and structural damage through constant freeze-thaw cycles. Without proper waterproofing, moisture infiltration leads to mold growth, reinforcement corrosion, concrete spalling, and progressive structural deterioration. Waterproofing protects your property investment long-term.
