Waddell sits in a pocket of Manchester where quiet residential streets meet forested land, and a gentle creek runs just north of the neighborhood. That natural setting is part of the charm, but it also means the ground stays saturated longer than homeowners expect. Basements in this area deal with moisture intrusion year after year, and temporary fixes only delay the inevitable. As a leading waterproofing company serving Manchester and surrounding communities, we've helped Waddell families put an end to water problems for good.
The wooded terrain and nearby creek contribute to higher groundwater levels in this part of Manchester. Eastern Waterproofing Co., Inc. has seen how hydrostatic pressure builds against foundations here, forcing water through cracks, joints, and porous concrete. Many homes in Waddell were built decades ago without the drainage systems that modern construction requires. That means basements were never designed to handle the moisture that accumulates beneath them.
We install a 4-inch perforated pipe encased in washed stone with filter fabric, positioned below your basement floor and adjacent to the footing. This setup lowers the water table under your home instead of simply moving moisture around. Some companies push track or curb systems that sit above the floor, but those methods don't address the root cause. We do the job right, so you don't have to call us back.
We don't employ salespeople driven by commission. A company owner meets with you personally to evaluate your basement and recommend a solution based on what your home actually needs. Our crews average over 12 years of experience, and we routinely hear that we leave job sites cleaner than we found them. That's the standard we hold ourselves to on every project.
We've been family-owned and operated since 1976. That's nearly 50 years of solving water problems for Connecticut homeowners. We're a certified Small Business Enterprise in both Connecticut and Massachusetts, fully licensed and insured. Our long track record means we'll still be around if you ever need to use your guarantee.
