Basement Sealing
What is Basement Sealing?
Basement sealing protects below-grade spaces by blocking groundwater infiltration and sealing leaks in walls, joints, and penetrations. Using trenchless polymer injection, watertight barriers are created inside or outside basement walls to prevent damage and maintain a dry, stable environment.
Problems Solved
- Groundwater infiltration through walls, joints, or cracks
- Moisture intrusion leading to mold, odors, and property damage
- Soil erosion around foundations weakening basement walls
- Settlement caused by water migration beneath slabs
- Costly disruptions from recurring leaks and water damage
Types of Polymers Used
High-Density Polyurethane Foams
- Expands to densify and stabilize loose backfill soils
- Provides lightweight reinforcement without added soil pressure
- Cures rapidly to minimize operational disruption
Structural Polyurethane Resins
- Creates rigid reinforcement zones behind walls and utilities
- Transfers structural loads to stable ground layers
- Extends service life of supported structures
Hydro-Insensitive Polymers
- Expands and cures in wet or groundwater conditions
- Seals voids and prevents erosion in saturated soils
- Provides long-term durability in challenging sites
Benefits of Basement Sealing
Basement sealing with polymer injection provides watertight protection without major excavation. These solutions stop groundwater infiltration, protect against property damage, and extend the life of below-grade spaces.
Reliable Leak Protection for Below-Grade Structures
- Prevents groundwater infiltration and property damage
- Creates long-lasting watertight seals in basements
- Requires no excavation or major surface disruption
- Restores safety, durability, and comfort in below-grade areas
