Our Story
DMV Waterproofing was built on over two decades of real field experience — not a business plan.
Two civil engineering classmates graduated from the University of the District of Columbia and began their careers in 2005 at ECS Mid-Atlantic’s Chantilly office, working as waterproofing and foundation inspectors across Washington, DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia.
For years, they inspected hundreds of foundations, studied DMV soil conditions, traced groundwater paths, and diagnosed water problems that other contractors had missed or misdiagnosed. They learned not just how to fix basements — but why they fail in the first place.
That knowledge doesn’t come from a classroom or a franchise manual. It comes from being on the ground, in the crawl spaces, and behind the walls of DMV homes for over twenty years.
When they decided to start DMV Waterproofing, the goal was simple — build a company that does the work the right way, with their own crews, their own materials, and their own standards. No shortcuts. No subcontractors. No commission-driven sales reps telling homeowners they need work they don’t.
How We Work
Every project starts with an honest inspection — not a sales visit. We diagnose the problem first, then recommend the solution that actually fits your home.
- Diagnose before recommending
- Evaluate before installing
- Engineer before selling

Is Your Basement Wet?
Water stains on the walls. Puddles on the floor after a heavy storm. White powdery residue where water keeps seeping in. These aren’t just inconveniences — they’re signs of a foundation water problem that gets worse over time, not better.
Is Your Basement Cold or Damp?
A cold, clammy basement is often a sign of moisture infiltrating through your foundation walls or crawl space. Uncontrolled groundwater keeps temperatures low and humidity high, leading to mold, wood rot, and structural damage.
Sound familiar? We can help. Call 1-833-888-2533 for a free inspection — no pressure, no obligation. Just an honest assessment from engineers who’ve been doing this since 2005.
Does Your Basement Have a Musty Smell?
That odor is a warning sign. Musty smells in basements and crawl spaces almost always mean moisture is present — and where there’s moisture, mold follows. Left untreated, mold spreads through your walls and affects the air your family breathes every day.
Is Your Foundation Cracked?
A hairline crack today becomes a water entry point tomorrow. Horizontal cracks signal soil pressure. Vertical and diagonal cracks indicate settlement. Stair-step cracks mean foundation movement. These aren’t just cosmetic issues — they’re warnings that get more expensive to fix the longer you wait.
We Are Local!
Waterproofing Engineers Serving the DMV Since 2005
DMV Waterproofing was founded by two civil engineers who started their careers in 2005 at ECS Mid-Atlantic’s Chantilly office, inspecting foundations and waterproofing systems across Washington, DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia.
Twenty years of studying DMV soil conditions, groundwater behavior, and regional foundation problems doesn’t come from a training manual — it comes from being here, on the ground, since the beginning. That experience is what separates us from national franchises and general contractors who added waterproofing to their service list.
We didn’t pick up waterproofing. We built our careers on it.
Our approach has never changed:
- Diagnose before recommending
- Evaluate before installing
- Engineer before selling
We’re Not a National Franchise — We’re Your Neighbors
Three local branches. Three communities we’re accountable to.
Rockville, MD · Ashburn, VA · Manassas, VA
Every branch is led by an experienced engineer who personally oversees each inspection and project. Our Rockville, MD headquarters houses our material warehouse, ensuring every job across Washington, DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia is completed with the same high-quality materials and zero delays. We don’t dispatch from a central hub hours away — our crews live and work in the same communities they serve. When a basement in Ashburn floods or a foundation in Manassas cracks, we’re already nearby
