Most Alpine homes have a full basement. Most of those basements only leak at one time of year: right after the snow on the Wasatch Range starts melting. That runoff saturates the soil around the foundation and builds pressure against the walls. Cracks and cold joints that stay bone dry the rest of the year suddenly start letting water through.
Alpine Foundation Pros treats waterproofing as a drainage problem first, not a sealant problem. A coat of paint on the wall doesn't stop pressure from building up behind it. The fix usually starts below the floor, not on top of it.

Most jobs here start with a walk-through, not a sales pitch. We check grading outside, look for active cracks, and figure out where the water's actually getting in before suggesting a drain system. If the real fix is as simple as regrading a flower bed, we'll say so instead of selling a system you don't need.

Our process
Step 1Moisture Assessment
The basement is inspected for leaks, dampness, and water entry points.
Step 2Drainage Evaluation
Existing drainage systems are reviewed for effectiveness and blockages.
Step 3Interior Drain Installation
A drainage channel is installed along the basement perimeter to collect water.
Step 4Sump Pump Setup
A pump system is installed to remove collected water from the area.
Step 5Wall Sealing
Walls are treated with waterproof coatings to prevent moisture intrusion.
Step 6System Testing
The waterproofing system is tested to verify proper function.
Materials
Materials and methods we use
Interior Drain Tile
Channels water to a collection point before it reaches living spaces.
Sump Pump System
Removes accumulated water to keep the basement dry.
Waterproof Wall Coating
Creates a barrier against moisture penetration through basement walls.
Vapor Barrier Sheeting
Reduces humidity transfer from soil into the basement space.
Check Valve
Prevents discharged water from flowing back into the system.
Battery Backup Pump
Provides continued pump operation during power outages.
