Foundation Waterproofing Contractors Florida
Professional foundation waterproofing services for Florida’s finest homes and commercial properties. We are a Florida waterproofing company that designs every system around the site, installs it with our own crews and backs it with a lifetime transferable warranty.
Tampa Bay ◆ Orlando ◆ Miami ◆ Founded 2015
A dry home is designed, not patched.
Florida’s shallow water table and sandy soils put constant pressure on slabs, walls and finishes. We diagnose where the water comes from, design a system for that property, and install it with the same care that went into building the home.
Built for properties where the details matter
Estate and Waterfront Homes
Custom and luxury residences where wood floors, stone and millwork cannot tolerate moisture. Discreet systems, protected landscaping, and a finished site that looks untouched.
Commercial Property Owners
Retail, office, medical and industrial buildings with water entering through slabs, shared walls, storefronts or loading areas. Scoped to keep tenants operating.
Developers and Builders
Below-grade and slab waterproofing for new construction in high water table ground, coordinated with your schedule and your engineer of record.
We also take on select multi-unit buildings through their property managers.

Membranes and coatings on block and concrete walls, paired with drainage so pressure has somewhere to go.

For moisture rising through the slab, darkened grout and cupping wood floors caused by the water table.
ExploreBelow-Grade Waterproofing
Basements, lower levels, crawlspaces and below-grade rooms, with interior channels and sump discharge.
ExploreSite and Stormwater Drainage
Capturing runoff across drives, pool decks, courtyards and garages and carrying it to a proper discharge point.
ExploreRoof Water Management
Seamless gutters tied into concealed underground discharge, so roof water never reaches the foundation.
ExploreWhen the tide rises, so does the water under the floor
Much of Florida sits on sandy soil over a shallow water table. Along the coast that water table moves with the tide. During king tides and sunny-day flooding in South Florida, salt water rises in the ground right beside the foundation without a drop of rain, and pushes up against the slab as hydrostatic pressure.
Our collection line gives that water a free-flowing path along the footing to a sump that pumps it out, so the floor of the building stays dry through every tide cycle.
Keeping salt water off the foundation also protects the steel inside the concrete. Reinforcement that stays wet with chlorides corrodes far faster than it should, and that is where costly structural repairs begin.
Engineering, when a project calls for it, is provided by Foundation Masters, LLC, Florida Certificate of Authorization CA# 30969.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need interior drains or exterior work?
We first diagnose where the water is coming from. If it originates outside, from runoff, roof water or hydrostatic pressure, exterior drainage is usually best. Interior systems are used when exterior access is limited or to relieve pressure quickly.
Who comes out for the consultation?
Foundation Waterproofing 101 does not use commissioned salespeople. Your property is evaluated by our project leadership, so the problem is diagnosed correctly before any work is proposed.
Will the work disturb my landscaping and finishes?
We protect interiors, hardscape and plantings during the work and restore the site when we finish. Most systems are concealed once complete.
How soon can you start?
Most projects are scheduled within one to two weeks of approval. Active water intrusion can be prioritized sooner.
Do you guarantee the work?
Yes. Every project carries a written warranty for its scope, and drainage and waterproofing systems carry a lifetime transferable warranty covering materials and workmanship.
Do you work on commercial buildings and new construction?
Yes. We waterproof commercial properties and work with developers and builders on below-grade and slab waterproofing for new construction, with engineering through Foundation Masters when the project requires it.
