Atlanta Basement Waterproofing

The last thing you want to discover when heading downstairs is a wet basement. Georgia’s humid summers make basements especially vulnerable to moisture issues, leading to musty odors, pests, and water-damaged belongings. Even worse, leaks often return with heavy rain, creating an ongoing battle against dampness. That’s why basement waterproofing is essential—it seals out moisture and keeps your home dry, safe, and protected year-round.
Signs Your Atlanta Basement Isn’t Waterproof
For reliable results, you need experts who understand Georgia’s unique climate challenges. Every year, hundreds of homeowners trust AquaGuard Foundation Solutions for basement waterproofing in Atlanta. Our proven solutions provide long-term protection, ensuring your basement stays dry no matter the weather.
Musty Smell in Basement? You Need a Dehumidifier.
Noticing a lingering, unpleasant smell in your basement? That musty odor is likely caused by mold or mildew—both thrive in damp conditions. Water seeping through cracks in your foundation raises humidity levels, creating the perfect environment for mold growth. Installing a quality dehumidifier helps reduce moisture, but true basement waterproofing in Atlanta, GA requires a more comprehensive approach.
Basement Leaks? You Need Basement Gutters.
Persistent leaks often point to a failing drainage system. If your basement can’t handle heavy rainfall, water builds up and seeps inside. Our innovative BasementGutter™ system is designed to prevent this, offering a clog-resistant, interior drainage solution that keeps water moving away from your home.
Seeing Efflorescence? Install a Vapor Barrier.
Have you noticed white, chalky residue on your basement walls? That’s efflorescence—a telltale sign of water infiltration. As moisture evaporates, it leaves behind salt deposits, often signaling bigger issues like mold or lingering odors. A vapor barrier can help by preventing further water intrusion, effectively eliminating the source of your wet basement problems.
Water in Your Basement? Install a Sump Pump.
Mold growth doesn’t just damage walls—it spreads through your home’s air circulation system, embedding itself in carpets and furniture. Over time, this can pose serious health risks to your family. Moisture control is key to stopping mold before it takes hold, and basement waterproofing in Atlanta, GA ensures your basement remains a clean, dry, and safe space for years to come.

The entire team that came to prevent future water in my basement was professional, knowledgeable and courteous. Tanner Damali was lead on the project, he was very thoughtful and kept me updated on the progress. They arrived on schedule and worked late in order to complete the job in one day. I would highly recommend AquaGuard if you find yourself needing water solutions.

I recently had Ishmael from Aquaguard come out to inspect my concrete, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the initial phone call to the completed inspection, Ishmael was professional, courteous, and incredibly knowledgeable. He arrived on time, thoroughly assessed the condition of my concrete, and clearly explained the potential issues and solutions. I especially appreciated his patience in answering all my questions – and I had a lot! He didn't try to oversell me on any services, but rather focused on educating me about the best options for my specific situation. While I haven't yet had the work done, based on Ishmael's expertise and the clear communication, I have complete confidence in Aquaguard and would highly recommend them to anyone needing concrete repair or waterproofing services. Five stars for Ishmael and Aquaguard!

First off let me just start by saying Whitt was almost, ALMOST too excited to get into our wet, tight…crawlspace. Get your mind out of the gutter. He was more informative and definitely more entertaining than the “talking Tom” videos. Just pay Whitt extra to redo those. Anyway, really excited to see how the work goes (with only 1 stupid review from some weirdo I’m certain it’ll be an enjoyable experience and worth the 5 stars we gave).

Taylor Smith came out today to inspect my system. He was early after calling to verify it was ok. He was friendly, professional and very thorough. He gave me advice about my system and air quality. He left me with a quote for a system to purify and dehumidify the air downstairs. I will probably do that but there was no pressure to do it immediately. All in all, Taylor was awesome. Thank you!

We had a great experience with Kornbread, Oscar, and Zeke for our basement waterproofing. Kornbread was very thorough, taking the time to explain everything clearly. The work was done neatly and professionally, and they made sure to clean up everything afterward. Even the next day, when we had a couple of follow-up questions,. Kornbread was responsive and helpful. Excellent service all around—highly recommend!

Leaky basement in 100yo house. I had put off repairing it for years. Aquaguard was terrific to work with. Hutch did the inspection and explained in terms I could understand what would be done. Audiel/Calvin/Trithan did the installation, and explained to me, as they progressed, what they were doing. I appreciate them all.

4 years and 9 months after installation, our pump failed. Aquaguard's representative, Scott Cunningham, arrived on time, advised me that the warranty was in effect for 3 more months and replaced the unit at no cost. Just as the original installation team, Scott was very professional and efficient in his assessment, offer of options, and service. Excellent product and service.

I had this company come out several years ago to repair a large, leaky basement storage room and they did a fabulous job. I have not seen one drop of water since they repaired things. Then last year I had to have part of my foundation repaired as it had settled so much there were cracks everywhere on the side of my home. I don't remember all of the technicians, but one of them was Daquan and he, as well as the others, was very skillful, professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. Then today Michael Freeman came out for the annual inspection, and worked very hard, completely replacing my unit with a new, updated one for no cost. Michael is yet another great AquaGuard technician who really knows his stuff, and who is professional but also caring. Kudos to AquaGuard for hiring only the best!

Basement Waterproofing FAQS
Unfortunately, basement waterproofing issues will only worsen over time. If your external drainage system has already clogged, there’s no guarantee if or when that issue will become more severe due to heavy or extended rains. Therefore, if you spot any of the common signs or symptoms associated with basement moisture penetration, it’s definitely beneficial to schedule a free evaluation sooner than later. Your issue may be minor and therefore be less expensive to repair than major issues. We hope it is. You may have no issue at all, or it may just be a plumbing leak. If that’s the case, we’ll tell you that, too. No matter what, if you’re experiencing any kind of basement water problem, at least invite a professional out to take a look. Don’t wait for your issue to get worse to find out the problem is serious!
Although it is not always indicative of structural failure, the most tell-tale sign of structural damage due to basement water penetration is foundation wall cracks. Wall cracks can occur in multiple ways and often tell a definitive story about why and how they cracked. For instance, stair-step or vertical wall cracks often occur as a result of differential settlement. Differential settlement typically results from rainwater funneling underneath your foundation walls, washing out, and eroding the soil below, leaving voids. Void-laden soil simply cannot support the heavy foundation walls that sit atop it, and thus the walls will start to crack and shift or settle down into the void. Another common cause of foundation wall cracks is hydrostatic pressure. Hydrostatic pressure can push against your foundation walls, resulting in horizontal or diagonal wall cracks. Over time, these cracks will widen, and your walls may start to buckle, bow or shear. This is a major structural issue, as total wall collapse can occur if your walls are left untreated.
At AquaGuard, we use a combination of waterproofing solutions, offering the most complete basement waterproofing system. Basement drains, vapor barriers, dehumidifiers, and sump pumps work together to ensure you home is protected against every cause of basement water problems. Our patented BasementGutter system has waterproofed more linear feet of homeowners’ basements than any other residential waterproofing product in the world.
