Waterproofing Contractors in Manhattan
Basement, foundation, roof and facade waterproofing that stops leaks at the source and keeps your property dry. Grace General Construction Corp has provided waterproofing in Manhattan since 2008 as a licensed, bonded and insured contractor based in the Bronx.
Manhattan roofs are typically flat, crowded with bulkheads, water tanks and mechanical equipment, and they leak at flashing and parapets first. Below grade, cellars and vaults near the waterfront are prone to seepage.
Our waterproofing services in Manhattan include:
- Interior drainage and sump systems
- Facade and parapet waterproofing
- Roof coatings
- Breathable masonry coatings
- Basement and foundation waterproofing
- Crack injection
Signs you need waterproofing
Call us for a free inspection in Manhattan if you notice any of these:
- Efflorescence on foundation walls
- Peeling paint on exterior walls
- Leaks during heavy rain
- Damp or musty basement
- Water at the floor-wall joint
Catching problems early usually means a smaller repair instead of a bigger rebuild.

Roofs and cellars in Manhattan buildings
Manhattan roofs are crowded with bulkheads, water tanks and mechanical equipment, and most leaks start at flashing around those penetrations or at the parapet. Below grade, cellars and vaults — especially downtown and near the rivers — need targeted waterproofing to stop seepage.

What clients say about our waterproofing work
Our results speak loud — but our clients speak louder. Rated 4.9 out of 5 from 66 reviews on Google.
We hired Grace General Construction Corp for a roofing job after dealing with leaks for a while, and I’m really glad we chose them. From the start, they were easy to work with and explained everything in a way that made sense.
The crew showed up on time, worked efficiently, and kept the area clean. The new roof looks great, and we haven’t had any issues since. Overall, a smooth experience and fair pricing.
I’d definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable contractor in the Bronx.
We had a persistent leak that several contractors tried to patch, but the problem kept coming back. It was frustrating and costly. Grace General Construction Corp carefully inspected the issue and performed a proper roof repair instead of just a quick fix. They explained the problem clearly and fixed it the right way. Since then, no more leaks, even during heavy rain. Very satisfied with their honest and professional service.
We own a property with a flat roof, and pooling water was becoming a serious issue. It was starting to cause interior moisture problems. Grace General Construction Corp assessed the drainage issue and installed a proper flat roof solution to prevent standing water. The difference is incredible, no more ponding, no more stress. Their expertise and fair pricing made the whole process smooth. Highly satisfied with their roofing services.
