Basement Waterproofing Cedar Rapids
Smart Solutions. Proven Protection. Built to Last.
A basement leak isn’t just a nuisance–it’s a signal. Water where it doesn’t belong can lead to musty smells, damaged walls, and costly repairs if ignored. If you live in Cedar Rapids, you know how quickly rainstorms and saturated soil can put pressure on your foundation. That’s where Tomlinson Cannon comes in.
For generations, we’ve been Eastern Iowa’s go-to team for basement waterproofing done right. We don’t believe in guesswork or temporary fixes. We offer tested solutions designed for your home, your budget, and our local conditions.
Understanding the Problem Starts at the Foundation
What’s behind most basement leaks? The pressure you can’t see. When water builds up in the ground after a heavy rain, it pushes against your foundation. This pressure finds its way through any tiny crack or seam, often through porous concrete or hollow block walls.
Over time, that pressure can wear down even the toughest materials. That’s why stopping leaks isn’t just about patching what you see, it’s about controlling the water before it becomes a problem.
A Smarter Way to Stay Dry
We’ve spent decades perfecting solutions that do more than hold back water. They manage it, redirect it, and remove it from your home entirely. Two of our most reliable options are:
Interior Drain Tile Systems
A professionally installed drain tile system sits at the base of your foundation walls, quietly collecting and redirecting water before it can rise to your floor. It works in tandem with your sump pump to move water away from your home quickly and efficiently.
Our drain tile installations are clean, permanent, and backed by a lifetime transferable guarantee. It’s a system designed to perform in real-world conditions, no matter what Cedar Rapids weather throws at it.
Crack Injection Services
Have a single wall crack causing problems? We offer precision polyurethane crack injection that seals leaks from the inside. It’s a fast, minimally invasive service that stops water in its tracks and restores peace of mind.
Built on Trust, Backed by Experience
We’ve been around long enough to see every kind of basement.. and every kind of problem. That experience shows in everything we do, from how we assess your home to how we clean up after the job.
People across Cedar Rapids call us because they want:
- Clear communication from start to finish
- Solutions that are built to last, not sell more service
- A company with decades of local experience and zero shortcuts
We stand behind our work because we know it holds up. And if something ever needs attention down the road, you’ll know exactly who to call and that we’ll be here to answer.
