Basement and lift pit waterproofing
Water pressing on a basement wall or lift pit from outside finds every crack and joint. The fix depends on whether we can reach the water side or only the inside, and we explain which applies to your building.
Signs you need it
- Damp walls and white salt crust in the basement
- Water on the floor after rain
- Water collecting in the lift pit
- Peeling paint and musty smell
Common causes
- Groundwater pressure against retaining walls
- Leaking construction joints and cracks
- Missing or damaged external waterproofing
- Poor drainage around the building
How we do it
- Survey the walls, floor and joints
- Choose the method: crack injection, coating, or a combination
- Carry out the repair and apply the coats
- Monitor and confirm the area stays dry
