Exterior Foundation Waterproofing Systems

The following companies make exterior foundation waterproofing compounds. Some are modified asphalts (Tuff n Dry), some are rubber (Rubber Polymer Corporation), and some are bentonite clay products (American Colloid Company).

I recommend that you research as many as possible and get product literature. Then discuss the systems with your builder. See what products he/she has had the best success with. Good luck on your project!
