Basement Waterproofing | Leaking Wall Cracks | Hydraway System | Moisture Control With a variety of companies using a variety of drainage tiles, it can be difficult to know which system is right for your basement or crawlspace. There are many methods, systems, and variations of drain tile that are used for basement waterproofing, of which include the Hydraway System. Some contractors have a drain channel that sit on top of the footing, while others have a drain channel that sit beside or parallel to the footing. Some drain channels are part of a “closed” system when combined with a vapor barrier.

Which waterproofing system is the best in the industry?

In our experience, many homeowners just want to know that their basement will stay dry with even the heaviest rainfall. Homeowners are often left trying to decide which company to hire when everyone has the best “super” system in the industry – and to add to the confusion, they have several estimates with pricing all over the map.
