Concrete Waterproofing
Professional waterproofing solutions for commercial concrete.
Professional Concrete Waterproofing in Wylie, TX
Concrete waterproofing services protect concrete structures from water damage, preventing costly repairs and extending service life throughout North Texas. At Rank & Rent Concrete in Wylie, TX, we provide comprehensive waterproofing solutions for foundations, basements, retaining walls, and concrete infrastructure exposed to moisture. Our advanced waterproofing systems combine proven materials with expert application techniques to create barriers that withstand Texas weather extremes and soil conditions.
Waterproofing concrete is essential for structures exposed to groundwater, rainfall, and humidity. We offer multiple waterproofing methods including membrane systems, crystalline waterproofing, and cementitious coatings that penetrate concrete to provide internal protection. Our services address new construction waterproofing and restoration of existing concrete that shows signs of water damage or deterioration.
From residential foundations to commercial buildings, we deliver waterproofing solutions that prevent water intrusion and protect structural integrity. Our concrete waterproofing includes proper surface preparation, application of appropriate waterproofing systems, and installation of drainage solutions that work together to manage water effectively. We work with architects, engineers, and property owners to implement waterproofing strategies that complement overall construction plans.
Quality assurance and long-term performance define our waterproofing services. We employ rigorous testing procedures, use premium waterproofing materials, and provide comprehensive warranties on our work. Our commitment ensures that concrete structures receive waterproofing protection that lasts for decades while maintaining the structural integrity and value of North Texas properties.

Common questions about our concrete waterproofing services in Wylie, TX.
What are the signs that concrete needs waterproofing in Wylie, TX?
Signs of needed waterproofing in Wylie, TX include water stains, efflorescence (white crystalline deposits), mold or mildew growth, musty odors, cracking from water damage, and deteriorating concrete surfaces. Foundation walls showing moisture, basement flooding, or water intrusion through concrete slabs indicate waterproofing issues. Regular inspections help identify problems before they cause significant structural damage.
What types of waterproofing systems are available for concrete?
Concrete waterproofing systems include membrane waterproofing (sheet and liquid applied), crystalline waterproofing that penetrates concrete, cementitious coatings, and epoxy injections for cracks. Each system has specific applications: membranes for foundations, crystalline for new concrete, cementitious for above-grade surfaces, and injections for repairing existing damage. We recommend systems based on exposure conditions and structural requirements.
How does waterproofing protect concrete from North Texas weather?
North Texas waterproofing protects concrete from heavy rainfall, humidity, and soil moisture. Our systems prevent water absorption that causes freeze-thaw damage, corrosion of embedded metals, and concrete deterioration. Waterproofing works with proper drainage to manage water away from structures. In Wylie, TX, effective waterproofing prevents the common problems of foundation leaks and basement moisture that result from clay soils and significant precipitation.
How long does concrete waterproofing installation take?
Waterproofing installation duration varies by system and scope. Small foundation repairs may complete in 1-2 days, while full building waterproofing can take 1-2 weeks. Large commercial projects may require 3-4 weeks with proper curing time. We coordinate with construction schedules and provide detailed timelines that minimize disruption while ensuring proper application and curing of waterproofing materials.
Can existing concrete be waterproofed, or is it only for new construction?
Existing concrete can be effectively waterproofed through various methods. Surface-applied membranes work on existing foundations, while crystalline waterproofing can penetrate existing concrete. Injection systems repair active leaks, and cementitious coatings provide protection for above-grade concrete. We assess existing concrete condition to determine the most effective waterproofing approach for restoration projects.
What maintenance is required for waterproofed concrete?
Waterproofed concrete requires periodic inspections and maintenance. Membrane systems benefit from annual visual checks, while crystalline waterproofing needs no surface maintenance. We recommend inspecting for damage after severe weather and ensuring drainage systems remain clear. Proper maintenance ensures waterproofing effectiveness and extends protection duration for concrete structures.
How does waterproofing work with concrete repair?
Waterproofing integrates with concrete repair through systematic approach. We first repair structural damage, then apply waterproofing systems, and finally install drainage solutions. This comprehensive method prevents water from causing further deterioration. For existing structures, we may use injection systems to seal cracks before applying surface waterproofing for complete protection.
What warranties are available for concrete waterproofing?
Waterproofing warranties vary by system type and typically range from 5-20 years. Membrane systems often include 10-year warranties, while crystalline waterproofing provides lifetime protection as it becomes part of the concrete. We provide detailed warranty information and documentation. Warranties demonstrate confidence in material quality and application expertise for long-term concrete protection.
How much does concrete waterproofing cost?
Waterproofing costs vary by system and project scope. Basic membrane waterproofing ranges from $3-8 per square foot, while comprehensive systems can cost $8-15 per square foot. Large projects benefit from economies of scale. We provide detailed estimates after assessment and can coordinate waterproofing with other concrete work for cost savings in comprehensive projects.
When should waterproofing be applied during construction?
Waterproofing timing is critical for effectiveness. Foundation waterproofing applies before backfilling, while slab waterproofing occurs during placement. Exterior waterproofing installs before final grading, and interior systems apply after structural completion. Proper sequencing ensures waterproofing integrates correctly with construction and provides optimal protection against water intrusion.
