Basement Waterproofing Cedar Falls

Protection That Adds Real Value to Your Home

A dry basement does more than keep your storage safe, it preserves the value of your home. In Cedar Falls, where housing demand stays strong and resale competition is real, your basement’s condition can be the make-or-break factor during a sale.

That’s why so many homeowners turn to Tomlinson Cannon. We don’t just fix water problems, we offer long-term protection backed by a lifetime, transferable warranty. Whether you’re planning to stay for years or considering listing your home down the road, basement waterproofing in Cedar Falls is one of the smartest investments you can make.

Basement Waterproofing Cedar Falls

Why Your Basement Matters More Than You Think

Home buyers notice the basement. Even if the living room shines and the kitchen is brand new, signs of water damage or musty smells downstairs can raise red flags.

Some common red flags we see in Cedar Falls homes:

  • Water staining on walls or floors

  • Cracks in the foundation

  • Peeling paint or bubbling drywall

  • Rusted appliances or HVAC systems

  • Odors caused by excess moisture or mildew

Even small water issues can lower your home’s perceived value. Our waterproofing services fix the problem and give you something buyers love to see: a warranty that stays with the home.

It’s Not Just About Now–It’s About What Comes Next

Basement water problems often start subtly. A trickle after a storm. A musty smell that wasn’t there last year. Then, seemingly overnight, it becomes a renovation-sized problem. By acting early, you’re not just protecting your comfort, you’re protecting your future equity.

We offer free estimates to Cedar Falls homeowners, so you can make an informed decision before things get worse.

How We Help Keep Your Home Market-Ready

Our approach is designed to deliver real peace of mind, whether you're settling in for the long haul or looking toward resale in the next few years.

Permanent Drainage Systems

Our custom-designed basement drainage systems relieve water pressure from the foundation and route moisture away from the home efficiently. They’re discreet, effective, and maintenance-friendly.

Wall Crack Sealing

Foundation cracks aren’t just cosmetic, they can be the source of future leaks and buyer concern. We seal cracks with durable, expanding foam injections that stop water infiltration and restore integrity.

Lifetime Warranty That Transfers

This is one of the biggest selling points we offer:
A lifetime warranty that is fully transferable to the next homeowner. When you sell your home, your waterproofing protection becomes part of the package, something realtors and buyers truly appreciate.
