Stop Crawl Space Problems Before They Wreck Your Foundation

At AMC911, we deliver permanent waterproofing and crawl space repair solutions engineered to stop water intrusion and protect your home for the long haul. For over 30 years, homeowners in Hampton Roads, Virginia Beach, and surrounding areas have trusted us to turn damp, unhealthy crawl spaces into clean, dry, and secure environments.

Most homeowners are surprised to learn that water is the #1 cause of foundation damage. Excess moisture leads to hydrostatic pressure, cracks in basement walls, and even structural problems. Temporary solutions like coatings or sealers aren’t enough. The real fix starts with managing groundwater and installing a reliable foundation waterproofing system that keeps your home safe from future water damage.

Common Causes of Foundation & Crawl Space Moisture

Water finds a way in—and often, the problem starts outside your home. Some of the biggest culprits include:

  • Improper grading: Soil that slopes toward your house sends water straight to your foundation walls.
  • Clogged gutters: Overflowing gutters spill water where you don’t want it: near the base of your home.
  • Short downspouts: Water should discharge at least four feet away from the foundation, not just inches.
  • High water table: Homes built on saturated soil face constant pressure from groundwater.
  • No waterproofing system: A crawl space without a vapor barrier or drainage system is a moisture magnet, leading to mold, wood rot, and pest problems.

AMC911 Crawl Space & Waterproofing Solutions

We offer a full range of services designed to stop moisture at its source, protect your foundation, and give you peace of mind.

Our interior waterproofing system uses a buried perforated drain pipe connected to a sump pump. This setup relieves hydrostatic pressure under your concrete slab, channels water into a sump pit, and pumps it away from your foundation. The result: a dry basement floor and walls.

We seal crawl space floors and walls with a heavy-duty vapor barrier to block moisture and reduce humidity. This prevents mold, pests, and wood rot while protecting your home’s structure and improving indoor air quality.

French drains use gravel and perforated piping to move surface water away from your home. This solution prevents flooding, protects foundations, and works well in areas with heavy rainfall or poor yard drainage.

When gravity can’t move water, a sump pump system does the job. Once water in the sump pit reaches a set level, the pump activates and discharges water far from your foundation wall, keeping your basement and crawl space dry.

Our foundation waterproofing uses sheet membranes and drainage systems to stop water infiltration and relieve hydrostatic pressure. This keeps your basement dry, protects concrete foundations, and prevents structural damage caused by excess moisture.

Drain tiles collect groundwater around the foundation and redirect it to a sump pump for removal. This reduces hydrostatic pressure and prevents basement or crawl space flooding, ensuring long-lasting moisture control.

We install exterior drainage systems at footing level with a waterproofing membrane and sheet barrier. This stops water before it reaches your foundation coating, reducing hydrostatic pressure and preventing leaks.

Our surface drainage systems use French drains, trench drains, catch basins, and grates to direct stormwater away from your home—even during torrential rain—protecting your foundation from water damage

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my home needs interior waterproofing?

Signs include a damp basement, water pooling on the basement floor, musty odors, or visible water stains on basement walls. These issues indicate hydrostatic pressure and groundwater infiltration.

A sump pump removes water that collects in a sump pit, pumping it away from your foundation to prevent basement flooding and crawl space moisture problems.

Yes. Even small cracks can allow water to seep into basements and crawl spaces, causing structural damage and mold growth. Crack injection repair seals cracks and prevents future leaks.

Interior waterproofing manages water after it enters, using drainage systems and sump pumps. Exterior waterproofing stops water at the source with drainage pipes, waterproofing membranes, and protective barriers.
