About Us
Two civil engineering classmates. One shared vision. Over 20 years inspecting foundations and waterproofing systems across Washington, DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia.
We built our careers studying DMV soil conditions, groundwater behavior, and foundation systems from the ground up — literally. DMV Waterproofing is the result of two engineers who decided it was time to do this work on their own terms, for their community.
Engineer-Founded. Locally Operated. No Subcontractors.
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
