The classic Capes and Colonials that line the streets of Bowers weren't built with modern drainage systems in mind. Many of these homes date back to the 1930s through the 1970s, and their basements show it. If you've noticed dampness along your foundation walls or water collecting after heavy rains, you're dealing with a problem that won't fix itself. We've been providing local waterproofing services in South Windsor, CT, and the greater Manchester area for decades, and we understand the unique challenges that older homes in neighborhoods like Bowers face.
Homes in Bowers sit on soil that holds moisture longer than it should. Eastern Waterproofing Co., Inc. has worked on countless properties throughout Manchester where hydrostatic pressure pushes water through foundation cracks, wall joints, and porous concrete. The neighborhood's aging housing stock means many basements were built before modern waterproofing standards existed. Seasonal freeze and thaw cycles only make things worse, widening existing cracks and creating new entry points for water.
We don't believe in surface-level fixes that fail when you need them most. Our approach involves installing a 4-inch perforated pipe encased in washed stone with filter fabric, positioned below the floor and adjacent to your footing. This system actually lowers the water table beneath your home rather than just redirecting moisture. A company owner personally assesses each job and designs a solution specific to your property's needs.
Our average employee has been with us for over 12 years. That means the crew working on your basement knows what they're doing and treats your home with respect. We consistently hear from customers that we leave job sites cleaner than we found them. That level of care comes from experience and pride in the work we do.
We've been family-owned and operated since 1976. Nearly 50 years in this business means we've seen every type of water problem and know how to fix it right. We're a certified Small Business Enterprise in Connecticut and Massachusetts, fully licensed and insured. If you ever need to use your guarantee, we'll still be here.
Bowers is a well-established neighborhood in Manchester with about 4,300 residents. Locals once called it "Pill Hill" because so many doctors who worked at Manchester Memorial Hospital lived along Princeton Street beneath its canopy of maple trees. The area sits close to I-84 and I-91, making commutes to Hartford or even Massachusetts straightforward. Center Springs Park and the Cheney Rail Trail offer residents outdoor recreation just minutes away.
