Halo Water Proofing has been the Sewanee area's go-to call for Waterproofing because we answer the phone, show up on time, and stand behind the work.
Halo Water Proofing started as a small TN crew and grew because Sewanee customers kept referring us to neighbors — that's still how most of our work comes in today.
Every technician on our Sewanee 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.
Call now and talk to an actual technician, not a script. We'll walk you through what's likely going on and get a crew scheduled.
📞 +1-866-476-1348Water problems rarely announce themselves all at once — they usually show up as small clues first. Here's what our Sewanee technicians hear about most often before an inspection.
Odor is often the first sign Sewanee customers notice, well before any visible water shows up.
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.
This is one sign we tell Sewanee customers not to wait on — wall movement tends to progress rather than resolve on its own.
Peeling paint low on a basement wall or warped baseboards upstairs often trace back to moisture migrating up from below.
Every Sewanee property is different — soil, slope, foundation age, water table depth. We size the fix to the actual problem, not a one-size package.
Standing water in your basement doesn't wait for business hours, and neither do we. Our Sewanee emergency crews pump out the basement first, then diagnose the source so it doesn't happen again next storm.
Call for Emergency Service →Freeze-thaw cycles in Sewanee, TN push existing cracks wider every winter, which is why we recommend sealing them before they become an active leak rather than after.
Get a Crack Assessment →Already have a sump pump that's failing or too small for your Sewanee 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 →For Sewanee 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 Sewanee 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 Sewanee commercial projects around business hours or tenant schedules so operations aren't disrupted mid-project.

We start with a phone conversation, not a script — enough to know whether this is an emergency dispatch or a scheduled inspection.
A technician inspects the Sewanee property in person, checking the foundation, drainage, grading, and any active moisture before recommending a fix.
You receive a written, itemized quote before any work begins — the number you approve is the number you're billed.
Once the repair is done, you get documentation of the work and a written warranty — not just a handshake.
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.
Our trucks stage locally around Sewanee, which is why emergency calls typically get a technician on-site in under two hours, not "sometime tomorrow."
Our repairs come with written, transferable warranties — a real asset if you sell the Sewanee property later.
If your Sewanee basement just needs a $200 crack seal instead of a $12,000 system, that's what we'll tell you.
We can supply the photo documentation and repair scope most Sewanee, TN carriers ask for before approving a claim.
Word of mouth is still how most Sewanee 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."
"Managed our building's parking garage waterproofing project. Kept to the schedule, communicated well with tenants, minimal disruption."
"French drain install took two days like they said it would, not five. Yard was put back together better than before."
"Insurance claim was a headache until they stepped in with photos and a written scope. Adjuster approved it within a week after that."
