Who We Are

Meet the Short Hills Basement Waterproofing Crew

Know the Signs

What Usually Comes Before a Flooded Basement

Catching one of these early usually means a smaller repair bill and a lot less stress for Short Hills homeowners.

01

Musty Basement Smell

If the basement smells damp no matter the season, water is likely finding a way in somewhere you can't see.

02

Cracking Near Windows or Corners

Stair-step cracking in block foundations is one of the most common early signs our Short Hills crews see.

03

Powdery Residue on Walls

It's easy to mistake efflorescence for harmless dust, but it actually signals active moisture movement.

04

Sump Pump Running Nonstop

A Short Hills sump pump that never rests is usually undersized or nearing the end of its life.

05

Wall Leaning Inward

This is one sign we tell Short Hills customers never to wait on โ€” wall movement tends to progress, not resolve on its own.

06

Bubbling Paint Near the Baseboard

These upstairs clues usually show up months after the basement moisture problem actually started.
