Foundation repair is an important necessity when buying or selling a home or commercial building. Structurally unsound buildings can be a great risk to your family or business, home or commercial building, and finances. Over the years, we at American A-1 recognized a correlation between weak foundations and water damage. For the past 25 years, American A-1 Waterproofing has diagnosed, repaired, and restored foundations to create a safer home or commercial building, equitable investment, and 100% satisfaction to its customers.

Exterior waterproofing is the best application of waterproofing for foundations, but also the most expensive. Exterior and foundation waterproofing is most ideal during renovation, repair or construction of a home or commercial building. Water is prevented from entering the building through membranes, drain pipes, grading, and redirecting of other water lines (such as roof leaders). When doing excavation work on your building, we handle permits, call for mark-outs, and cautiously monitor all areas we dig.

We are Certified Waterproofing Specialists with the Basement Health Association (formerly known as the National Association of Waterproofing and Structural Repair Contractors) and the World of Concrete Association. We also hold certifications in Mold Remediation. Interior waterproofing is the most cost efficient solution to water problems in the basement. Although interior & basement waterproofing does not stop water from coming into the building, it manages the water in a way that helps stop water damage and redirects water into your drainage system.

Here at American A-1 Waterproofing, we understand how important it is to a customer to work with the same company throughout the whole phase of a project.

Robert DeSopo was amazing through the whole process. He came and gave a very professional and thorough estimate. Everything from start to finish was great! Highly recommend.

If you are having water or moisture problems in your basement, there is a chance that you may have mold. It can occur within 24 to 48 hours and can be a potential health hazard. Property damage could go up and your home's value could go down.

A cracked foundation might the problem your basement is facing if you have a lot of water seeping into your basement. It can be fixed by injecting the openings with epoxies or urethanes so that your basement can stop leaking. This is just one of many things we can do to waterproof your basement.
