Wichita's flat Arkansas River plain sits on clay and silt over shallow water, and that combination shows up in basements from College Hill to Riverside. The 1920s brick bungalows and 1950s ranches here were built before modern drainage, so hydrostatic pressure finds every old foundation wall and cold joint.

When water seeps into your basement near 67202, you need a crew that knows the difference between a simple crack and a saturated water table. Wichita Waterproofing is based here, and we have spent years fixing interior drain tile, sump pumps and foundation cracks in neighborhoods like Delano and Fairmount.

Waterproofing Us in Wichita (67202)

Wichita sits on expansive clay that swells when wet and shrinks in drought, and the water table near the Little Arkansas River stays high enough to push water through block and poured walls. In College Hill and Riverside, we regularly find old brick and stone foundations with failing parging and no footing drain. Out in Maize, Andover and Bel Aire, the newer poured basements often need crack injection and proper grading because the soil still moves with every freeze-thaw cycle. Low spots near Chisholm Creek and the Big Ditch floodway collect storm runoff fast, and that is when sump pumps and interior perimeter drains earn their keep.

Our team has worked on hundreds of basements across the Wichita area, from 1910s Craftsman bungalows in Delano to 1990s split-levels in Haysville. We know how to read efflorescence on a block wall and when a bowing wall needs carbon fiber straps instead of a coat of sealer.

Our services in Wichita

How a Job Works in Wichita

Step 1: Call (316) 867-9121 and we schedule a free basement inspection. We walk the basement and the exterior, check the grade, downspouts and any visible cracks, and explain what we see in plain terms. You get a written scope and price before any work starts.

Step 2: On installation day, our crew protects the work area and gets to it. In older Wichita neighborhoods like Sunnyside, tight lot access means we plan equipment staging ahead of time, and we pull permits when structural repair or egress work requires them. Interior drain tile and sump pump installations usually take one to two days.

Step 3: We haul away debris, clean the basement floor, and walk the finished job with you. We test the sump pump and check valve, show you the discharge line, and leave the site as clean as we found it.

Pricing in Wichita depends on basement size, access and how much water is coming in. Foundation crack repair with epoxy or polyurethane injection starts at $450. Interior drain tile runs from $50 per linear foot, and a full basement waterproofing system with sump pump typically starts around $2,500. Exterior waterproofing with dimple board and membrane starts at $95 per linear foot, while a sump pump replacement starts at $1,200. Bowing wall repair with carbon fiber straps starts at $600, and French drains start at $25 per linear foot. Call (316) 867-9121 for a free estimate and a straight answer on what your basement actually needs.

My College Hill bungalow has water seeping through the brick foundation after every heavy rain. Is that a crack or hydrostatic pressure?
In College Hill, brick and stone foundations often weep at the mortar joints because there is no footing drain and the clay soil holds water against the wall. A single vertical crack can be injected, but if water shows along several feet of the wall, hydrostatic pressure is the cause and an interior drain tile system is usually the better fix.
My sump pump stopped during a storm in Riverside and water is coming in now. What should I do?
Call us at (316) 867-9121 right away. We respond to active water emergencies in Wichita and can bring a temporary pump, check the check valve and discharge line, and replace a failed pump. Do not wait until the basement floods deeper.
What does a typical basement waterproofing job cost in Wichita?
Most interior systems start around $2,500, and crack injection starts at $450. The final price depends on linear footage, whether a sump basin needs to be added, and how tight the access is. We give a free written estimate after inspecting the basement.
Do I need a permit for foundation crack repair or egress window installation in Wichita?
Structural foundation repair and egress window cutting commonly require a permit, and sump discharge connections may be regulated too. Rules vary, so check with the City of Wichita website or call the local building department before work begins. We can help you understand what applies to your project.
My neighbor's grading sends water toward my foundation in Delano. What can I do about the property line?
Kansas property line rules and local drainage ordinances matter here. We can inspect your side and recommend regrading or a French drain that keeps water away from the foundation without altering the property line. If an HOA is involved, we provide the documentation they need for approval.
Are you insured for basement waterproofing work in Wichita?
Yes. Wichita Waterproofing is fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage.
What maintenance should Wichita homeowners do before spring thunderstorms?
Test your sump pump by pouring water into the basin, check that the discharge line is not frozen or clogged, and extend downspouts at least four feet from the foundation. In freeze-thaw months, keep exterior grades sloping away from the house and watch for new efflorescence on basement walls.

Our services

Our Basement Waterproofing Services in Wichita

All your work handled by qualified professionals in Wichita

Basement Waterproofing

We diagnose the actual water path first, then build the system that matches it.

Included in your service

  • Water path traced: hydrostatic pressure, wall seepage, or floor cracks
  • Interior drain tile, sump basin, wall treatment, and vapor barrier as needed
  • Honest call on what you need and what you do not
  • Transferable warranty on the system, terms set out in your written contract
Learn more→

Interior Drain Tile System

Perimeter drain tile at the footing, routed to a sump basin. Installed in any season.

Included in your service

  • Slab edge opened, perforated pipe laid in washed stone at the footing
  • Water captured before it reaches the floor, channeled to the sump basin
  • Works through winter, unlike exterior excavation
  • Concrete restored flush, basement left clean and usable
Learn more→

Exterior Basement Waterproofing

The most thorough fix there is: excavation to the footing, membrane, and new drains.

Included in your service

  • Excavation to the footing, foundation wall cleaned and repaired
  • Waterproof membrane and dimple board applied to the outside face
  • New footing drains bedded in stone and wrapped in filter fabric
  • Straight guidance on when exterior work earns its cost over an interior system
Learn more→

Foundation Waterproofing

Block, poured, and fieldstone foundations, each treated for how it actually fails.

Included in your service

  • Parging and crack repair matched to the wall construction
  • Membrane or crystalline treatment selected for the substrate
  • Drainage corrected so the treatment is not asked to hold back standing water
  • Period-appropriate approach for pre-1940 stone and block walls
Learn more→

Foundation Crack Repair

Epoxy bonds a structural crack, polyurethane seals a wet and moving one. We use the right one.

Included in your service

  • Crack graded first: cosmetic, actively weeping, or still moving
  • Injection ports set along the full depth of the crack
  • Epoxy injection where the wall needs structural bonding
  • Polyurethane injection where the crack is wet and needs to stay flexible
Learn more→

Sump Pump Installation & Replacement

A pump is only as good as the basin, the check valve, and where the water actually goes.

Included in your service

  • Zoeller and Liberty pumps sized to your pit and inflow
  • Sealed basin and check valve to stop backflow between cycles
  • Discharge line routed and freeze-protected for spring snowmelt
  • Old pump and debris removed, cycle tested before we leave
Learn more→

Bowing Wall Repair

Stop the movement without rebuilding the wall, in most cases.

Included in your service

  • Bow measured and monitored to establish how far the wall has moved
  • Carbon fiber straps bonded to the wall for lighter bows
  • Steel wall anchors where the bow needs active correction
  • The clay soil pressure driving it addressed, not just the wall braced
Learn more→

French Drain Installation

Intercept surface and groundwater before it ever reaches the foundation.

Included in your service

  • Trench graded to fall, gravel bed and perforated pipe wrapped in filter fabric
  • Curtain drains placed uphill of the house where the water actually arrives
  • Outlet tied to daylight or to a pump basin, never left to pond
  • Grading and downspout extensions corrected as part of the job
Learn more→

Drain Tile Repair & Replacement

Many homes here still run on original clay tile that stopped draining decades ago.

Included in your service

  • Camera inspection to locate the collapse, blockage, or root intrusion
  • Targeted excavation rather than replacing the entire run
  • Modern PVC replacement bedded in washed stone
  • Flow tested end to end once the line is reconnected
Learn more→

Vapor Barrier Installation

Stop moisture migrating through block and concrete before you finish the space.

Included in your service

  • Heavy-duty wall and floor barrier sealed at seams and penetrations
  • Fitted around the drainage system so moisture is managed, not trapped behind it
  • The right prep step before framing a basement finish
  • Paired with drainage, because a barrier alone does not remove water
Learn more→

Basement Wall Sealing

Sealers fix minor dampness. They do not beat hydrostatic pressure, and we will tell you which you have.

Included in your service

  • Surface prepared and efflorescence removed down to sound masonry
  • Penetrating or membrane sealer chosen for the wall and the conditions
  • Plain diagnosis of whether sealing is genuinely enough for your basement
  • If the water table is the driver, we say so instead of selling you a coating
Learn more→

Battery Backup Sump Pumps

The power goes out during the storm, which is exactly when the pump matters most.

Included in your service

  • Backup pump and battery sized to your pit and expected inflow
  • Automatic changeover the moment the primary pump loses power
  • Audible alarm so a failure does not go unnoticed
  • Runtime explained honestly, and maintenance checks available
Learn more→

Free Basement Inspection

A written assessment with photos, and a straight answer if nothing is actually wrong.

Included in your service

  • Walls, floor, cracks, and sump system checked point by point
  • Exterior grading, downspouts, and window wells reviewed as water sources
  • Photos and a written explanation of what needs fixing now and what can wait
  • Free and no obligation, including when our answer is that you need nothing
Learn more→

Basement Mold Remediation

Removal paired with the moisture fix, because mold returns wherever the water does.

Included in your service

  • Containment set up before any affected material is disturbed
  • Affected surfaces treated and remediated, damaged materials removed
  • Musty smell traced back to the moisture source rather than masked
  • Drainage or dehumidification added so growth does not restart
Learn more→

Window Well Drainage & Repair

A well that fills becomes a bucket of water held against your foundation.

Included in your service

  • Well excavated and a drain tied into the footing drain or a stone bed
  • Liner set true and backfilled with free-draining stone
  • Clear cover fitted to keep out rain, leaves, and snow
  • A leak source homeowners rarely suspect and inspections often miss
Learn more→

Egress Window Installation

Code-compliant egress, cut and flashed so the new space stays dry.

Included in your service

  • Opening cut and framed to the required egress dimensions
  • Window flashed and sealed against the foundation wall
  • Well drained properly so the new opening is not a water entry point
  • Permit requirements confirmed with the local building department first

“Our basement was damp and musty every spring and we finally had enough. The crew did a full interior drain tile system with a new sump pump and sealed the walls, and the whole thing took about three days. Two months in and it's bone dry down there, I wish we'd called them years ago.”

“We had the exterior of our brick foundation excavated and waterproofed after years of moisture problems. It was a big job and the crew was here about four days, but they kept the site tidy and explained each step. The difference is night and day, no more damp smell in the basement.”

“They waterproofed the basement walls around our concrete stairwell area and sealed everything up. Good communication and the crew was polite. Only small gripe is they were a couple days later than originally scheduled, but the work itself has held up great through all this rain.”

“We had water pushing against the foundation from the yard side, so they installed a French drain along the foundation wall with gravel and proper grading away from the house. No more soggy strip along the wall and the basement has stayed dry all season.”

“Had the crew out to seal our poured concrete basement walls and install a vapor barrier. They were in and out in a day and a half and cleaned up so well you couldn't tell anyone had been working down there. The basement finally feels dry instead of clammy. Scheduling was a bit of a wait since they're busy, but worth it.”
