When homeowners ask us at Blue Umbrella how to protect their biggest investment from water damage, we always start by breaking down the three types of waterproofing: interior waterproofing, exterior waterproofing, and basement wall sealing. It’s important to know if it’s better to waterproof a basement from the inside or outside, and if you can truly permanently waterproof a basement (hint: the answer is yes!).

Our owner and several team members volunteered at Liquid Church’s annual Christmas Outreach, a massive weekend event held across multiple locations throughout New Jersey.
