Homeowners in Wapping deal with the same basement issues we see all over Connecticut, but here's the thing: not every company that shows up with a truck and some equipment actually knows what they're doing. We've been fixing wet basements and cracked foundations since 1976, and over those decades we've cleaned up after plenty of botched jobs from companies that promised premium repair solutions but delivered half-measures instead. Your basement needs more than a band-aid fix, and that's exactly what we provide. We're not interested in quick jobs that fail in two years. We're interested in doing the work right so you never have to call anyone else about water problems again.
Too many waterproofing companies install systems above your basement floor and hope for the best. That's not waterproofing; that's wishful thinking. Eastern Waterproofing Co., Inc. installs drainage systems the correct way, which means 4-inch perforated pipe set below your floor, surrounded by washed stone and filter fabric, positioned right next to the footing. This setup lowers the water table underneath your basement instead of just rerouting surface water. We've been using this method for almost five decades because it actually keeps basements dry through every Connecticut storm season.
We're a family business, which means when you reach out to us, you talk to an owner who's going to be at your house doing the estimate. No commissioned sales reps inflating prices or pushing unnecessary add-ons. Our workers average over 12 years with the company, so they know their stuff inside and out. We also take pride in leaving your property cleaner than we found it, which apparently makes us stand out in an industry where cleanup seems optional.
Water and foundations don't mix well. Over time, moisture causes cracks, shifting, and structural problems that only get worse if ignored. We handle masonry repairs and foundation work because sometimes you need more than just waterproofing to fix the underlying issue. We've worked on thousands of Connecticut and Massachusetts homes, and we know how to stabilize foundations so they last.
Damp basements grow mold, and mold creates health problems for everyone in your house. Our waterproofing systems cut off moisture at the source so you're not dealing with air quality issues or rotting wood later. We back up our work with real guarantees because we're not going anywhere after 50 years in business.
Wapping is part of South Windsor and sits close to the Connecticut River, which means properties here need solid waterproofing to handle seasonal flooding and high water tables. We service this area regularly from our Manchester location, and we know the drainage challenges local homes face.
