Commercial Basement Waterproofing

Water in a below-grade area can disrupt storage, equipment access and day-to-day building operations. ArmaCo works with commercial property teams on basement waterproofing and related drainage needs.

A scope built around your property

Begin by documenting when water appears and which surfaces are affected. Roof drainage, exterior grades, wall openings and existing drainage systems may all be relevant to the investigation. The appropriate approach depends on the building rather than a single standard treatment.

Work to discuss

  • Below-grade waterproofing discussions based on site conditions
  • Coordination with French drain and water-management work
  • Repair planning for affected masonry and concrete

Planning for an occupied facility

Identify equipment rooms, storage areas and access routes that need to remain available. Bring photographs from wet-weather events and any records of previous waterproofing or drainage repairs.

Project questions

Before the work is scheduled

What should I record before requesting an estimate?

Note the location, timing and frequency of water entry, and whether it follows rainfall. Photos and a simple marked-up floor plan can help explain the affected area.

What should a facility manager provide before a visit?

Share photographs, a description of the problem, access requirements and any existing inspection reports. Note when leaks or damage were first observed and which areas must remain available.

Do repairs include engineering or certification?

Do not assume these are included. Clarify any engineering, inspection, permitting or certification requirements and the responsible parties in the project agreement.
