We Fix Wet Basements, Damp Crawl Spaces & Cracked Foundations in New Jersey
Basement Waterproofing
Your basement is a valuable living space that shouldn’t surrender to the elements. Backed by decades of basement waterproofing experience, we’ll pinpoint your wet basement problem and offer affordable long-term exterior & interior waterproofing solutions. Count on Blue Umbrella, your New Jersey basement waterproofing company, to help you make the most of your space.
French Drain Installations
Redirecting water away from your home is one of the most effective ways to keep your basement and crawl spaces dry. Blue Umbrella specializes in NJ moisture management, including NJ French drain installation & interior basement waterproofing that outsmart Mother Nature and solve your cracked foundation or wet basement problems throughout New Jersey
Sump Pump Installation & Backup Sump Pumps
Water is no match for a dependable sump pump installation. As part of our NJ basement waterproofing services, we carry industry-leading sump pumps to reliably move water away from your home and foundation. And should the power ever go out, we install battery backup sump pump systems to ensure your home stays dry, even in the most severe weather.
Basement Foundation Repair
Cracks in your basement walls are never a good thing. Water can seep in through the cracks damaging the basement. We keep the water out with professional epoxy injections. Cracks can also mean bowing basement walls or a damaged settling foundation. We fix the issue with steel I-beams and carbon fiber strips. Blue Umbrella is NJ's trusted basement foundation repair company.
Exterior Landscape Drains
The water entering your basement is coming from the waterlogged soil surrounding your home. Part of proper basement waterproofing is to divert water away from your home's foundation with an NJ exterior landscape drainage system. The drainage system installation is done beneath the ground, redirecting problematic water and keeping your basement dry while remaining unseen.
Crawl Space Encapsulation
Your crawl space is a breeding ground for humidity, water, bugs, and rodents, which may lead to costly problems and poor indoor air quality. We protect you and your home with full New Jersey crawl space encapsulation and crawl space waterproofing services including a specialty crawl space sump pump and dehumidifier. Your crawl space stays clean and dry.
Basement Dehumidifier Installations
High humidity, indoor air quality problems, and mold growth go hand in hand. If humidity is wreaking havoc on your basement or crawl space, Blue Umbrella installs crawl space and basement dehumidifiers that maintain the correct level of humidity in the space, helping keep your home dry, safe, and allergen-free. A proper basement dehumidifier installation completes a waterproofing system.
Basement Waterproofing Maintenance
A key aspect of basement waterproofing is making sure that the system in your NJ home is always functioning properly. We offer regular checkups and comprehensive inspections of your sump pump, dehumidifier, and drainage system, replacing worn parts. Having a basement waterproofing maintenance plan ensures your basement always stays safe and dry.
