Our Services
Wet basements are a fact of life in South Jersey — but living with one isn’t. We provide basement waterproofing services in Cherry Hill, NJ for homeowners who are tired of seeping walls, musty smells, and water pooling on the floor after every heavy rain.
Every job starts with a free inspection. We find where your water is actually coming from, explain what we find in plain language, and recommend a fix that matches the cause — not a one-size-fits-all system. If a simple repair will solve it, that’s what we quote.
We work across Cherry Hill and the surrounding Camden County towns — Marlton, Voorhees, Pennsauken, and Haddonfield — helping homeowners protect the space under their house before a small leak turns into real damage.
Waterproofing Services for Cherry Hill Homes
One company, one specialty — dry basements. Pick a service to see exactly how we fix it.
French Drain Installation
Groundwater gets a better path out. We install an interior drainage channel along your basement walls that catches water as it enters and carries it to your sump pump — the fix we recommend most for Cherry Hill’s marl clay soil, installable even in finished basements.

The piece that moves water out before it can pool — working year-round in Cherry Hill’s high water table. We install new systems and replace worn-out units, and every installation includes a battery backup option for storm-season power outages.
Learn more →Foundation Crack Repair
Small cracks rarely stay small. We seal leaking cracks with flexible polyurethane or structural epoxy injection — and tell you honestly whether you’re looking at normal shrinkage or a serious structural warning sign.
Learn more →Crawl Space Encapsulation
We seal your crawl space off from damp outdoor air with a heavy vapor barrier across the ground and up the walls — stopping mold on joists, wood rot, and musty odors from ever reaching your living space.
Learn more →Mold Remediation
Mold starts within 24–48 hours of a leak. We find the moisture feeding it, contain the area with HEPA filtration, remove growth safely, and fix the underlying water problem so it doesn’t come back.

When groundwater keeps finding its way in, an interior French drain gives it somewhere else to go. We install a drainage channel along the base of your basement walls that catches water as it enters and carries it to your sump pump — instead of letting it spread across your floor.
This is the fix we recommend most for Cherry Hill’s marl clay soil, because clay holds water against your foundation instead of letting it drain away. An interior system also makes sense when digging around the outside of your home isn’t practical — near property lines, patios, or finished landscaping. And yes, it can be installed in a finished basement with minimal disruption to your space.

Sump Pump Installation
A sump pump is the piece that moves water out of your basement before it can pool or rise — and in a town with high water tables like Cherry Hill, it’s doing that job year-round. We install new sump pump systems and replace units that have worn out, run constantly, or can’t keep up during storms.
Every installation includes a battery backup option, because the heaviest rain usually arrives with the power outages that knock out a standard pump. If your current pump is more than a few years old, is unusually loud, or cycles on and off all day, it’s worth having it checked before the next storm tests it.
See our sump pump installation and replacement services for what’s included in every install.
Foundation Crack Repair
A crack in your foundation wall is an open door for water — and small cracks rarely stay small. As each season’s rain pushes against your foundation, cracks widen and let in more water. Catching them early is almost always the cheaper fix.
We seal leaking cracks with polyurethane injection, which stays flexible as your foundation moves, and use epoxy injection for cracks that need structural bonding. Just as important: we tell you honestly what the crack means. A hairline shrinkage crack and a horizontal crack pushing inward are very different problems, and we won’t sell you a full waterproofing system when a targeted repair is all your home needs.

Crawl Space Encapsulation
An open, vented crawl space pulls damp outdoor air under your home all summer — and that moisture doesn’t stay down there. It feeds mold on your floor joists, rots wood framing, and sends musty odors up into your living space through every gap in the floor.
Encapsulation seals the space off from that moisture. We install a heavy sealed vapor barrier across the ground and up the foundation walls, closing off the vents and entry points where humid air gets in. The result is a dry crawl space that protects your framing, cuts down on odors, and takes a major moisture source out of your home’s equation.

Mold Remediation
Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours after a leak, flood, or stretch of humid weather — and once it’s in your drywall, framing, or HVAC, wiping the surface won’t stop it. Real remediation means finding the moisture that’s feeding it, removing the growth safely, and fixing the source so it doesn’t come back.
We contain the work area, run HEPA air filtration to keep spores from spreading through your home, remove contaminated materials, and then address the underlying water problem — because mold treated without fixing the moisture always returns. We handle mold jobs for both homes and businesses across Cherry Hill and South Jersey.

Why Cherry Hill Homes Need Waterproofing
Basement water problems in Cherry Hill aren’t bad luck — they’re geology. Much of South Jersey sits on clay-heavy soil, including the marl clay common around Cherry Hill. Clay barely absorbs water, so heavy rain has nowhere to go except toward your foundation, where it builds pressure against your basement walls.
Parts of Camden County also have naturally high water tables. When the ground is already saturated, even an ordinary rainstorm can push water up through the floor — which is why some basements here flood without any dramatic weather at all.
Then there’s the housing stock. Many Cherry Hill and Haddonfield homes were built before 1990, with foundations and drainage that predate modern waterproofing standards. Decades of seasonal pressure wear down old seals and mortar, so a basement that stayed dry for years can start leaking seemingly out of nowhere. If you’re seeing the early signs, our Cherry Hill basement waterproofing FAQs cover what to watch for and what to do first.
Why Choose Waterproofing Cherry Hill
We’re a Camden County-based company that does one thing — basements, crawl spaces, and foundations — and owner Joe Miller personally handles or oversees every inspection that comes through the door. You’re dealing with a small local crew that works in South Jersey soil every day, not a call center routing you to a subcontractor network. Every install is led by Joe or by our licensed, background-checked field team.
We’re licensed and insured to perform waterproofing and foundation work in New Jersey, and we work the way we’d want a contractor to work in our own home: free inspections, written estimates before anything starts, a written warranty on every system we install, and no upselling. If your basement doesn’t need us, we’ll tell you that too.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does basement waterproofing cost in Cherry Hill?
It depends on what’s causing your water problem and which method fixes it — a single crack injection and a full interior drainage system are very different jobs. That’s why every inspection ends with a written estimate, not a ballpark. To get a realistic sense of what different methods run in this area, see our guide to basement waterproofing costs in Cherry Hill, NJ.
Do you really offer free inspections?
Yes. We come out, find where your water is coming from, explain it in plain language, and leave you a written estimate — with no pressure and no obligation. We’d rather earn the job with a straight answer than a sales pitch.
Can you waterproof an older Cherry Hill home?
Older homes are a large part of what we do. Foundations built before modern waterproofing standards usually need a tailored approach rather than a standard package, which is exactly why we diagnose first. Most pre-1990 basements in this area respond well to interior drainage paired with crack repair.
How long does installation take?
Most interior waterproofing systems are completed in a matter of days, not weeks, and you can stay in your home while the work happens. Your written estimate includes a realistic timeline for your specific job, so you know what to expect before we start.
Will waterproofing work if my basement is finished?
Yes. Interior drainage systems are designed to install along the perimeter of your basement with minimal disruption to finished walls and flooring. We plan the work around your space and leave it clean when we’re done.
Do you guarantee your work?
Every system we install comes with a written warranty — the exact coverage is spelled out in your estimate before work begins, so there are no surprises later. If something we installed isn’t performing, we come back and make it right.
