Top Waterproofing Solutions for Older Hudson Valley Homes
The Hudson Valley is full of charm, stone walls, historic architecture, and character you can’t replicate in new builds. But with age comes maintenance challenges, especially in the basement. Many homes here are 50, 80, even 100+ years old, and their foundations weren’t built with modern waterproofing in mind. If you own an older home, here are the best ways to keep your basement dry and your foundation strong.
Interior Drainage Systems
Older basements often lack any kind of built-in drainage. Our FlowGuard Interior Drainage System is installed along the perimeter of your basement floor, capturing water before it reaches your living space.
Sump Pump Systems with Battery Backup
A reliable sump pump, like our Dual Stage Sump Pump, removes water quickly and can include a battery backup to protect you during power outages.
Wall and Floor Crack Repair
Over decades, foundation walls shift and settle, leading to cracks. We use professional epoxy injection and sealing techniques to permanently block moisture entry points.
Exterior Grading and Gutter Management
Sometimes, the simplest solution is controlling water outside your home. We can advise on exterior drainage improvements that complement your interior waterproofing.
Dehumidification for Moisture Control
Older homes can be prone to musty smells due to high humidity. A BasementAire Dehumidifier keeps moisture levels in check, protecting your home and your health.
Our team specializes in preserving the structural integrity of older Hudson Valley homes while giving them modern moisture protection. You don’t have to choose between history and a dry basement, you can have both.
