What are steps to waterproofing basements outside?

Answer 1

Waterproofing a basement from the outside is a much more involved process than from the inside and is more expensive.

If you want to waterproof your basement from the outside you will need an exterior drainage system installed. You will have to contact a professional and have them come out to give you a free estimate.

Exterior drainage systems involved digging out the ground around the perimeter of your home and installing a drainage system, then filling the ground back in.

If you are advised to have an interior basement waterproofing system installed, then you should probably do that instead. It will save you money and usually keeps water out for good.
