Halo Water Proofing has been the Buffalo area's go-to call for Exterior Waterproofing because we answer the phone, show up on time, and stand behind the work.
Halo Water Proofing started as a small NY crew and grew because Buffalo customers kept referring us to neighbors — that's still how most of our work comes in today.
Every technician on our Buffalo crew is background-checked, factory-trained on the equipment we install, and held to the same estimate we quote you over the phone — no upsell surprises when the truck pulls up.
One call gets you a straight answer and a real appointment window — not a call-back promise.
📞 +1-866-476-1348Most Buffalo 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.
Stair-step cracks in block foundations are a common early warning sign we see across Buffalo-area homes.
That white chalky film on basement walls is efflorescence — mineral deposits left behind as water evaporates through concrete.
A pump under constant strain tends to fail at the worst possible time — usually during the next big Buffalo storm.
This is one sign we tell Buffalo customers not to wait on — wall movement tends to progress rather than resolve on its own.
Flooring that's cupping or warping near an exterior wall is a common clue our Buffalo crews trace back to a drainage issue.
From an emergency pump swap at 2 a.m. to a full exterior drainage system, this is the work we do in Buffalo every day.
Standing water in your basement doesn't wait for business hours, and neither do we. Our Buffalo emergency crews remove the water first, then diagnose where it's getting in so it doesn't happen again next storm.
Call for Emergency Service →A cracked foundation wall isn't just a cosmetic issue — it's a water entry point and, over time, a structural one. Our Buffalo crews assess whether it's a simple seal or a sign of bigger settlement issues before recommending a fix.
Get a Crack Assessment →A tired or undersized sump pump is the #1 reason we get emergency calls in Buffalo after heavy rain. We install right-sized primary pumps so your basement stays dry even if the power goes out mid-storm.
Schedule a Pump Inspection →For Buffalo properties fighting grading or drainage issues, an exterior French drain can intercept water before it ever reaches the foundation wall at all. We map your yard's slope and water flow before recommending which approach fits.
Ask About Drain Systems →Older Buffalo homes with vented crawl spaces are especially prone to seasonal moisture swings — encapsulation closes that off for good.
Get a Crawl Space Quote →We can phase larger Buffalo commercial projects around business hours or tenant schedules so operations aren't disrupted mid-project.
