Its varied terrain, from low-lying coastal areas to steep foothills, places many basements at risk of water intrusion.
Historic mill homes in towns like Ridgewood and Hackensack often sit on outdated drainage systems that don’t meet modern codes. And even homes in newer suburban neighborhoods, such as those in Paramus or Mahwah, can flood from a single burst pipe or heavy storm.
United Waterproofing offers a smarter strategy. Our patent-pending waterproofing process stops water before it ever touches your foundation.
We use Fast-Flow perforated piping, powerful but durable sump pumps, and corrosion-resistant materials that are built for Bergen County’s climate.
