The American Dry method
How the SuperDry Waterproofing System Works
Most basement systems begin with what is easy to see. We begin where the wall and floor meet — the footer — so water has somewhere dependable to go before it reaches the living space.
- 01SuperDry catches the water low.
A footer-level drain gives water a controlled route around the basement, rather than asking a shallow channel to catch it late.
- 02SuperCrete welds the slab.
We finish with a cementitious floor designed to close the system into a cleaner, more usable surface.
- 03SuperSlurry handles the exceptions.
Where the job calls for it, SuperSlurry helps seal and reinforce specific masonry conditions.
Sump pump systems
