Engineer-Founded. No Subcontractors. Since 2005.

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 we decided to start DMV Waterproofing, the goal was simple — build a company that does the work the right way. With our own crews, our own materials, and our own standards. No shortcuts. No subcontractors. No commission-driven sales reps telling homeowners they need work they don't."

Today, DMV Waterproofing runs four local branches — Rockville (main office), Kensington, Ashburn, and Manassas — with six in-house crews and three project managers. Every single one of them works exclusively for DMV Waterproofing. No subcontractors, ever.
