There are two main types of basement leaks: water coming from under the basement floor and then through the foundation walls. Though they both lead to the same problem for the homeowner, each type requires a specific waterproofing solution.
When water is coming in through cracks in the floor, flooring edges, or the middle of the floor, then it commonly means the weeping tile drainage system around the foundation isn't working properly. If you have a sump pump, it could also mean that your sump pump has failed. This type of basement leakage problem can be repaired from the exterior or the interior. Excavating around the foundation and replacing the weeping tiles can solve the problem from the outside. Fixing the problem from the inside means installing a sub-floor drainage system or a french drain.
If your basement leak is caused from water coming in through the concrete foundation wall, it can also be repaired from the exterior or the interior. Water seeping in through the walls is commonly an indicator that there's a foundation wall crack. These cracks can be fixed by using a foundation crack injection or using waterproofing materials to repair them from the outside. Factors like the quality of your foundation, the age of your home and the number of leaks will all play apart in determining which waterproofing method is best to use.
