Water intrusion can cause serious problems for commercial and residential buildings, especially when moisture reaches foundations, exterior walls, basements, parking areas, or other vulnerable areas. Professional waterproofing helps protect a property from leaks, moisture penetration, deterioration, and water-related damage.
Reliance Group NYC provides professional waterproofing services in NYC for building owners, property managers, contractors, and other property professionals. Our approach focuses on identifying the source of water intrusion, assessing the affected building components, and determining the appropriate waterproofing solution for the property.
Whether you are dealing with recurring leaks, foundation moisture, deteriorating exterior walls, or water entering below-grade areas, the right waterproofing strategy can help protect the building and reduce the risk of more extensive repairs.
New York City buildings can develop leaks where water enters through foundations, exterior walls, joints, or below-grade areas. Finding the source matters because a damp wall, a basement leak, and water collecting near a foundation may each need a different repair approach.
Reliance Group NYC assesses the affected area and recommends waterproofing work based on the building’s condition and the source of water intrusion. Contact our team to discuss the problem and arrange an assessment.
Building waterproofing is the use of protective materials and construction methods to limit the movement of liquid water and moisture into areas where it can cause damage.
Waterproofing may be needed in different parts of a building, including:
The correct approach depends on the building’s construction, location, materials, drainage conditions, and source of water intrusion.
For below-grade construction, waterproofing becomes particularly important where hydrostatic pressure is present. NYC Building Code provisions address waterproofing for walls and floors where hydrostatic pressure conditions exist.
A successful waterproofing project begins with understanding the problem.
The first step is to examine the affected areas and identify visible signs of moisture, water entry, deterioration, or other conditions.
Water can enter through multiple pathways. The source may involve a foundation wall, exterior wall, joint, penetration, drainage condition, or another building component.
The surrounding materials and construction details are considered before determining the appropriate waterproofing strategy.
Not every water problem requires the same material or repair method. The solution should be selected according to the building’s construction and the conditions affecting the affected area.
Proper preparation, application, sealing, and detailing are important to create an effective waterproofing system.
The repaired area should be reviewed to ensure that the intended waterproofing measures have been properly addressed.
