Who We Are: A Licensed Waterproofing Crew in Atlanta
Arrow Tight Waterproofing exists because too many property owners in Atlanta were getting patchwork fixes instead of real diagnosis. Our crews are licensed in GA, carry full liability coverage, and are trained to find the actual water path before recommending anything.
Our technicians carry thermal cameras and calibrated moisture meters to every inspection, because guessing at a foundation problem wastes your money and our reputation. That's the standard for every job in Atlanta, residential or commercial.
Every technician completes ongoing training as materials and methods evolve โ the polyurethane injection resin we use today isn't the same formulation the industry relied on ten years ago, and neither is our crew's training.
IICRC-certified technicians on every job, no exceptions
licensed in GA with full liability and workers' comp coverage
Thermal imaging and calibrated moisture readings before every quote
Written, transferable warranty on all completed systems
Direct-employee crews โ never subcontracted out
Warning Signs
What a Failing Foundation Actually Looks Like
Most foundation failures don't start as floods โ they start small, and they're easy to miss until the damage compounds. Here's what our technicians look for on every inspection in Atlanta.
01
Efflorescence on Basement Walls
That chalky white residue on concrete or block isn't dirt โ it's mineral salt left behind after water has already migrated through the wall.
02
A Musty Smell That Won't Go Away
Odor alone rarely tells you the source, but it's a reliable sign something needs a real moisture inspection rather than an air freshener.
03
Cracks Along the Wall-Floor Joint
The cove joint is the single most common water entry point in basements โ staining or gaps there usually mean hydrostatic pressure is pushing water in.
04
A Sump Pump That Never Stops Running
Continuous cycling means your pump is handling more groundwater than it was sized for, and it's only a matter of time before it fails under the load.
05
Bowing or Leaning Foundation Walls
Measuring wall deflection with a level is one of the first things we do on any inspection where bowing is suspected, since the degree of lean changes the recommended fix.
06
Rust Stains Bleeding Through Concrete
Iron doesn't rust without sustained water contact, so rust bleeding through concrete is a reliable indicator of ongoing penetration.
07
Peeling Paint or Soft Drywall Near the Floor
If the bottom foot of drywall in a below-grade room feels soft or the paint is bubbling, that's usually vapor transmission through the wall, not a plumbing leak.
08
Cold, Damp Floors Above a Crawl Space
Floors that stay cold and slightly damp-feeling even with the heat running usually trace back to an open or failed vapor barrier beneath the house, not an HVAC problem.
Core Services
Complete Waterproofing Solutions, in Atlanta
We don't sell a single fixed package โ every property in Atlanta gets a scope built around what our inspection actually finds.
01
Emergency Water Intrusion Response
When water is actively entering a property in Atlanta, our first priority is stopping the intrusion, then extracting standing water before secondary damage sets in.
Every emergency truck carries submersible pumps, temporary sump units, and crack-sealing materials, so most active leaks can be stabilized on the first visit.
For homeowners in Atlanta, we install interior drain tile, sump systems, and crawl space encapsulation sized to your property's actual groundwater load โ not a one-size package.
We size every residential system โ pump horsepower, pipe diameter, gravel bed depth โ to your specific property rather than a generic template.
Commercial foundations in Atlanta carry different risk than residential ones โ larger footprints, tenant liability, and often tighter access โ and our crews scope and schedule around that.
Commercial jobs get the same commercial-grade materials as our residential work โ nothing scaled down because the client is a business instead of a homeowner.
When a foundation issue is structural rather than purely a water problem, we bring in the crack-classification and reinforcement expertise that basic waterproofing crews don't carry.
We're upfront when a problem needs structural engineering input beyond what waterproofing alone can fix, rather than selling a repair that won't hold.
A waterproofing system is only as reliable as the pump moving water out of it โ we size, install, and upgrade sump systems in Atlanta to match actual groundwater volume rather than defaulting to whatever's in stock.
We also correct discharge line routing and grading as part of any pump job, since a poorly graded discharge line often just recirculates water back toward the foundation.
These aren't marketing lines โ they're the specific practices that separate a repair that lasts from one that doesn't.
Upfront, Itemized Pricing
We quote a fixed price after a real inspection, not a phone estimate, and we get written sign-off before any change to that scope.
Fast Local Dispatch
We don't run a single centralized dispatch queue; regional staging means the crew reaching you in Atlanta isn't driving hours to get there.
Satisfaction Backed in Writing
Every completed system comes with a written, transferable warranty โ not a verbal promise that's hard to enforce two years later.
Commercial-Grade Materials, Every Time
We install the same membrane specification, pipe schedule, and pump ratings on residential jobs that commercial contracts require โ never a downgraded consumer-grade substitute.
Diagnosis Before Recommendation
A diagnosis-first approach costs us more time per estimate, but it's the reason our repeat-callback rate is a fraction of the industry average.
Our Process
From Your Call to a Documented Fix
01
Call or Request an Inspection
Call +1-866-476-1348 and describe the issue. We route the right technician for your specific situation rather than a generalist.
02
On-Site Diagnosis
We document every visible entry point and pressure indicator during the visit โ this is what the eventual proposal is built around.
03
Written, Fixed-Price Proposal
Review the proposal at your own pace; we don't pressure same-visit sign-off, though we can often start within days once approved.
04
Installation & Warranty Documentation
Once the system is installed and tested, you get warranty paperwork that transfers with the property if you ever sell.
Don't Wait for the Next Storm
Free on-site inspection, written estimate, no obligation. We answer 24/7.
"Had a cove joint leak that two other companies just patched without explaining why it kept happening. Arrow Tight Waterproofing's technician showed me the moisture readings and traced it to hydrostatic pressure, then installed drain tile that's held through every storm since.Would recommend them without hesitation."
R. โ Homeowner, Atlanta
โ โ โ โ โ
"Called at 11 PM with active water coming in during a storm. Live person answered immediately, crew was on-site within the hour, and they had a temporary pump running before starting the real diagnosis.Exactly the level of service we expected."
K. โ Emergency Client, Atlanta
โ โ โ โ โ
"We manage a small multi-unit building and needed the work scheduled around tenants. They coordinated everything cleanly and the commercial-grade membrane they used has zero callbacks two years later.Would recommend them without hesitation."
T. โ Property Manager, Atlanta
โ โ โ โ โ
"Appreciated that they didn't just sell us a package. The inspection actually found the real problem โ a bowing block wall โ and the carbon fiber reinforcement plus crack injection fixed it properly instead of just sealing the surface.That's the kind of fix that actually holds up."
M. โ Homeowner, Atlanta
โ โ โ โ โ
"Sump pump had been cycling nonstop for weeks before we called. They correctly diagnosed it as undersized for our actual water table and upgraded it โ no more constant cycling, and it's kept up with two heavy storms since.That's the kind of fix that actually holds up."
D. โ Homeowner, Atlanta
โ โ โ โ โ
"We're a small property management company and needed drainage work done across three units without disrupting tenants. Arrow Tight Waterproofing scheduled around occupied hours, communicated clearly with residents, and the itemized invoice matched the original proposal exactly.Would recommend them without hesitation."

FAQ
Straight Answers About Waterproofing
Response time depends on urgency โ active flooding is treated as top priority, while non-urgent inspections are usually booked within the week.
Yes โ every job gets a written, itemized proposal after a real on-site inspection, and that number is what you're invoiced, not an estimate that grows once work starts.
Our emergency line is answered live 24/7, and crews carry equipment for immediate water extraction, temporary sump deployment, and active crack sealing on the first visit.
Interior drainage manages water after it enters at the wall-floor joint; exterior waterproofing stops it from reaching the wall at all. Our inspection determines which fits your specific situation.
We document every job with photos and moisture readings you can submit for any claim, regardless of what your policy ultimately covers.
Timeline depends entirely on scope โ we give you a written schedule estimate as part of the proposal so there's no ambiguity going in.
A technician inspects the property directly with thermal imaging and moisture meters before any number is put on paper.
Yes โ every completed system includes a written warranty that's transferable if you sell the property, not just a verbal assurance.
We provide Waterproofing services in Atlanta, with regionally staged crews that keep response times reasonable across the footprint we serve.
For the actual repair, it depends on scope โ interior work often doesn't require you to be present for the full job, while we'll coordinate access details with you directly for anything involving excavation.
A proper fix starts with identifying the pressure source or entry mechanism, then installs a system rated to handle it permanently, not just plug the spot you can see.
We're not a public adjuster, but we document every job with dated photos and moisture readings formatted for insurance submission, which you can include with your own claim.
