What We Offer
The Full Range of Basement Waterproofing Methods
APS Foundation has kept Alabama basements dry since 1977. In the region's clay soils and heavy seasonal rain, no single method fits every basement, so our inspectors diagnose where and why water enters before recommending a fix. Most durable results combine managing water at the footing with reducing how much reaches the wall from outside.
Browse the solutions below to learn how each works, when it is appropriate, and what the APS installation process looks like.
Interior Drainage Systems
A perimeter drain at the footing collects water and a sump pumps it away, the reliable fix for a recurring wet basement.
Learn more ›French Drain Installation
A gravel-bedded perforated pipe lowers groundwater and carries it away from the foundation before pressure builds.
Learn more ›Exterior Waterproofing Membranes
Sealing the soil side of the wall and draining to the footing stops moisture before it can enter the wall.
Learn more ›Vapor Barriers
A sealed liner blocks ground moisture from passing through walls and floors into the air, controlling humidity and mold.
Learn more ›Yard Drainage Solutions
Catch basins and buried piping move standing yard water away from the foundation before it can reach the basement.
Learn more ›Grading and Yard Sloping
Re-sloping the soil so it falls away from the house keeps rainwater from pooling against the foundation.
Learn more ›Downspout Extensions
Carrying roof water past the foundation instead of dumping it at the wall, a simple, high-impact drainage step.
