Taking Care of Wet Basement Issues - A Complete Waterproofing System
Long Island basement waterproofing isn’t about picking one product off a list. It’s about installing a complete system where each component handles a specific job:
- Interior French Drain captures water at the floor-wall joint, the most common entry point.
- Sump Pump moves collected water out through a discharge line.
- Battery Backup Pump keeps the system running during the storm-related outages that cause flooding in the first place.
- Window Well Drains stop water entering through basement windows.
- Basement Encapsulation with vapor barrier captures moisture seeping through basement walls.
- Yard Grading corrects exterior conditions that send water toward your foundation.
- Egress Windows make a waterproofed basement legally habitable as living space.
- Basement Ventilation controls humidity and air quality that drainage alone can’t fix.
During your free inspection, we’ll identify which components your basement needs and explain how they work together as a system.
Interior French Drains
The French drain is the most effective, efficient, and affordable solution for basement waterproofing. Interior perimeter French drains, also known as drain tiles, are now the preferred choice due to their durability and reduced risk of clogging. ACM specializes in installing advanced french drain systems.
Basement Sump Pumps
A sump pump is a critical component of basement waterproofing, and ACM Basement Waterproofing is Long Island’s trusted expert for professional sump pump installation in basements and crawl spaces. The sump pump channels water via PVC piping to a designated outdoor discharge location. With decades of experience and award-winning service, ACM ensures reliable, high-quality sump pump solutions.

Battery Backup Pumps
A sump pump is essential for Long Island basement waterproofing, but it won’t function during a power outage, leaving your home vulnerable during heavy rains. ACM Basement Waterproofing recommends installing a battery backup sump pump to ensure continuous protection. This system collects water from the French drain and pumps it away from your home, even when the power is out.
Window Well Drains
Properly installed window well drain pipes can prevent water from leaking into your basement by redirecting it safely to the foundation drain or sump pump system. These solutions protect your Long Island home from water damage, mold, and rot, ensuring a dry, usable basement.
Basement Encapsulation
A basement vapor barrier is installed along the interior of your basement walls to prevent moisture from reaching the rest of your basement. ACM uses a dimple board vapor barrier, a rigid HDPE membrane that captures water seeping through your foundation and channels it down into your French drain. Available in white or grey to match your walls, the dimple board keeps your Long Island basement dry with a clean, finished look.
Basement Vapor Barrier
A basement vapor barrier is installed along the interior of your basement walls to prevent moisture from reaching the rest of your basement. ACM uses a dimple board vapor barrier, a rigid HDPE membrane that captures water seeping through your foundation and channels it down into your French drain. Available in white or grey to match your walls, the dimple board keeps your Long Island basement dry with a clean, finished look.
Yard Grading & Leveling
Expert yard grading and leveling services for your Long Island home address exterior factors that contribute to basement water issues. Poor yard grading can lead to water pooling near your foundation, causing leaks, erosion, and landscape damage. Proper landscape grading involves reshaping the land around your Long Island home to ensure a 5% slope away from the foundation, using clay-like soil for drainage and organic-rich topsoil for healthy plant growth.
Basement Egress (Escape) Windows
An egress window in your Long Island basement is essential for meeting building codes and making your basement a safe, habitable space. Egress windows provide a secondary exit, required for living or sleeping areas, while offering natural light, ventilation, and peace of mind in emergencies.
Basement Restoration Equipment Rental
Before your basement can be waterproofed, the water needs to be removed, and the basement needs to be dried so the waterproofing system can be installed. If you have existing basement water, we offer carpet fan rentals and basement dehumidifier rentals.
Basement Ventilation System
A musty basement may seem normal in Long Island, but it isn’t. Moisture leads to water damage, rot, and especially mold, which spreads through the air and can trigger allergies and asthma throughout your home. The only way to prevent these problems is by controlling moisture and improving air circulation to keep your basement, and your family, healthy.
Basement Mold Testing
A damp Long Island basement gives mold everything it needs to grow, and the worst of it often hides behind walls or inside insulation where you’d never spot it. Even mild exposure can bring on headaches or breathing problems over time, and the smell alone tells you something’s off. A simple air test shows what’s actually growing in your basement and how high the levels are, so you know exactly what you’re dealing with before it spreads.
