Halo Water Proofing has been the Latham area's go-to call for Crawl Space Encapsulation because we answer the phone, show up on time, and stand behind the work.
We're Halo Water Proofing — a NY-licensed, fully insured waterproofing outfit that's spent years learning exactly how water moves through Latham-area foundations, and exactly how to stop it.
We don't send apprentices to figure it out on your dime. Every Latham job is run by a technician who has done this exact repair dozens of times, with a supervisor who signs off before we call it finished.
One call gets you a straight answer and a real appointment window — not a call-back promise.
📞 +1-866-476-1348Most Latham customers didn't wake up one day with a flooded basement. It usually started small. These are the early signs worth calling about.
If the basement smells damp even when it looks dry, moisture is likely moving through the walls or floor somewhere.
Even small cracks are worth a second look — they rarely stay small once seasonal ground movement gets involved.
It's easy to dismiss efflorescence as harmless dust, but it actually signals active moisture movement through the wall.
If your pump is running around the clock instead of only during storms, it's worth having it evaluated before it fails completely.
If a foundation wall looks like it's leaning or bulging inward, that's beyond a simple seal and needs a full assessment.
These signs upstairs are often the last clue Latham homeowners notice, even though the moisture issue started in the basement months earlier.
Every Latham property is different — soil, slope, foundation age, water table depth. We size the fix to the actual problem, not a one-size package.
Storm season in Latham, NY means our emergency line gets busy fast — we triage calls by severity so active flooding at your Latham address jumps the queue ahead of routine inspections.
Call for Emergency Service →Hairline cracks are how most Latham basements start leaking. We use polyurethane injection to seal the crack from the inside out, stopping the leak at the source instead of just painting over the symptom.
Get a Crack Assessment →Already have a sump pump that's failing or too small for your Latham lot? We'll test it, tell you honestly whether it needs replacing, and size the new one to your actual water volume — not the cheapest unit on the truck.
Schedule a Pump Inspection →An interior drain tile system channels water to a sump pump before it ever reaches your Latham basement floor — one of the most reliable long-term fixes we install.
Ask About Drain Systems →Musty smell upstairs that you can't explain? It's usually the crawl space. Our Latham crews encapsulate the space fully — floor, walls, and vents — so moisture stops migrating into your living areas.
Get a Crawl Space Quote →Commercial properties in Latham carry bigger stakes when water gets in: inventory, tenants, downtime. We scope commercial jobs with the same crew leads who run our residential work, backed by written specs and timelines.
Request a Commercial Quote →No confusing steps, no hard sell — just the same process our Latham crews follow on every job.
We start with a phone conversation, not a script — enough to know whether this is an emergency dispatch or a scheduled inspection.
We walk the space with you, point out what we find, and explain it in plain language — no jargon, no pressure.
You receive a written, itemized quote before any work begins — the number you approve is the number you're billed.
Our crew completes the work, cleans up the site, and walks you through the warranty coverage on what was installed.
We quote the job in writing after inspecting it in person, so what you agree to on the phone or at your door is what shows up on the final invoice.
Because we're actually based near Latham rather than routing calls through a national center, we can usually get someone out the same day you call.
If a covered repair fails, we come back and make it right. That's written into every contract, not just promised on the phone.
If your Latham basement just needs a $200 crack seal instead of a $12,000 system, that's what we'll tell you.
We document the damage with photos and a written scope your insurance adjuster can actually use, and we'll walk you through the claim process.
Word of mouth is still how most Latham customers find us, which keeps our standards higher than a big out-of-town franchise.
"They came out the same afternoon I called about water coming in during a storm. Explained everything before they touched anything. Basement's been bone dry since."
"Got quotes from three companies for a crack repair. These guys were the only ones who actually explained why the crack was happening instead of just quoting a price."
"Crawl space smelled awful for years. Encapsulation crew did a clean job and the smell is completely gone upstairs now."
"Straightforward commercial quote, no back-and-forth, crew was professional the whole project."
"We had three foundation cracks and expected a huge bill. Turned out only one needed injection — they didn't try to sell us on the other two. That honesty is rare."
"Insurance claim was a headache until they stepped in with photos and a written scope. Adjuster approved it within a week after that."
