Munford is a small city where brick ranches and newer subdivisions sit on rolling loess soil near Big Creek, and the runoff has to go somewhere. If your window wells fill up or your foundation wall stays damp after a storm, you are not alone.

Homeowners in the 38058 ZIP code call Memphis Waterproofing because we understand how water moves through this ground. We have seen how a heavy summer downpour can send water sheeting across a sloped yard and straight into a below-grade window well, and we know the fixes that actually work.

Waterproofing Us in Munford (38058)

Munford sits on deep windblown loess, a fine silt that erodes easily and holds water in the low spots. The brick ranches and newer builds here often have window wells that collect runoff from uphill neighbors, and French drains that were sized for a smaller storm. When the ground is saturated, hydrostatic pressure builds against foundation walls, and that is when you see efflorescence on the block, a crack that weeps, or a damp slab edge in a sunken garage. We deal with the source, not just the stain.

Our team has worked throughout the Memphis metro, from the older neighborhoods near the river to the fast-growing suburbs north of town. In Munford, that means we know the difference between a simple crack that needs epoxy injection and a wall that is telling you the water table is the real problem. We are fully insured, and we bring that same honest guidance to every free basement inspection.

How a Job Works in Munford

Step 1: You call us at (901) 519-3853, and we schedule a free on-site assessment. We walk the property with you, check the grading, the window wells, the foundation walls, and any signs of water intrusion. We explain what we find and give you a written estimate before any work begins.

Step 2: We schedule the work at your convenience. In Munford, tight lot access and sloped grades can affect how we stage equipment, so we plan for that. If your project requires a permit, we point you to the City of Munford website so you can verify the current requirements with the building department.

Step 3: When the job is done, we clean up the site and walk through the finished work with you. We make sure you understand what was done, how the drainage works, and what to watch for. We leave your property clean and your questions answered.

Pricing in Munford depends on the job. Foundation crack repair typically starts around $450, while a full basement waterproofing system with interior drain tile can start at $2,500. French drains start at $25 per linear foot, and sump pump installation starts at $1,200. The final cost depends on the size of the area, access to the foundation, the condition of the walls, and how quickly you need us. We give you a clear, written estimate before we start, so there are no surprises. Call (901) 519-3853 for a free estimate.

My window wells fill with water every time it rains hard in Munford. What is the best fix?
Window well drainage is a common issue here because of the rolling loess soil. We often install a drain that ties into a French drain or a sump system to move water away from the foundation. In some cases, a window well cover and regrading the surrounding soil can help, but the right solution depends on where the water is coming from. We can assess it during a free inspection.
What should I do if water is actively coming into my basement during a storm in Munford?
First, stay safe and avoid electrical hazards. If it is safe to do so, move valuables away from the water. Then call us at (901) 519-3853. We prioritize emergency calls and can help you understand what to do while you wait. Do not try to pump the water out too quickly if the walls are under pressure; we can guide you.
How much does foundation crack repair cost in Munford?
Most foundation crack repairs start around $450. The price can go up if the crack is wide, actively leaking, or if multiple cracks are involved. We use epoxy or polyurethane injection depending on the situation. We give you a firm quote after inspecting the crack.
Do I need a permit for basement waterproofing in Munford?
Permits are often required for structural repairs, egress window installation, and work that alters drainage or the sanitary connection of a sump discharge. Requirements vary, so it is best to check with the local building department. You can start at the City of Munford website for contact information and current rules.
My neighbor's yard drains onto my property and into my window well. What can I do?
This is a common property line issue. We recommend talking with your neighbor first and possibly consulting a surveyor to confirm the property line. If needed, we can design a drainage solution on your side, like a French drain or a swale, to redirect the water before it reaches your foundation. We do not get involved in disputes, but we can help you manage the water.
Are you insured for work at my Munford home?
Yes, we are fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage. We are happy to provide proof of insurance before we start any work.
What maintenance should I do each season to prevent basement water problems in Munford?
Clean your gutters and extend downspouts at least 6 feet away from the foundation. Check your window wells for debris and make sure any drains are clear. In the fall, remove leaves; in the spring, check for cracks or efflorescence. If you have a sump pump, test it before the rainy season. A free inspection can catch small issues before they become big ones.

Our services

Our Basement Waterproofing Services in Memphis

All your work handled by qualified professionals in Memphis

Basement Waterproofing

We diagnose the actual water path first, then build the system that matches it.

Included in your service

  • Water path traced: hydrostatic pressure, wall seepage, or floor cracks
  • Interior drain tile, sump basin, wall treatment, and vapor barrier as needed
  • Honest call on what you need and what you do not
  • Transferable warranty on the system, terms set out in your written contract
Learn more→

Interior Drain Tile System

Perimeter drain tile at the footing, routed to a sump basin. Installed in any season.

Included in your service

  • Slab edge opened, perforated pipe laid in washed stone at the footing
  • Water captured before it reaches the floor, channeled to the sump basin
  • Works through winter, unlike exterior excavation
  • Concrete restored flush, basement left clean and usable
Learn more→

Exterior Basement Waterproofing

The most thorough fix there is: excavation to the footing, membrane, and new drains.

Included in your service

  • Excavation to the footing, foundation wall cleaned and repaired
  • Waterproof membrane and dimple board applied to the outside face
  • New footing drains bedded in stone and wrapped in filter fabric
  • Straight guidance on when exterior work earns its cost over an interior system
Learn more→

Foundation Waterproofing

Block, poured, and fieldstone foundations, each treated for how it actually fails.

Included in your service

  • Parging and crack repair matched to the wall construction
  • Membrane or crystalline treatment selected for the substrate
  • Drainage corrected so the treatment is not asked to hold back standing water
  • Period-appropriate approach for pre-1940 stone and block walls
Learn more→

Foundation Crack Repair

Epoxy bonds a structural crack, polyurethane seals a wet and moving one. We use the right one.

Included in your service

  • Crack graded first: cosmetic, actively weeping, or still moving
  • Injection ports set along the full depth of the crack
  • Epoxy injection where the wall needs structural bonding
  • Polyurethane injection where the crack is wet and needs to stay flexible
Learn more→

Sump Pump Installation & Replacement

A pump is only as good as the basin, the check valve, and where the water actually goes.

Included in your service

  • Zoeller and Liberty pumps sized to your pit and inflow
  • Sealed basin and check valve to stop backflow between cycles
  • Discharge line routed and freeze-protected for spring snowmelt
  • Old pump and debris removed, cycle tested before we leave
Learn more→

Bowing Wall Repair

Stop the movement without rebuilding the wall, in most cases.

Included in your service

  • Bow measured and monitored to establish how far the wall has moved
  • Carbon fiber straps bonded to the wall for lighter bows
  • Steel wall anchors where the bow needs active correction
  • The clay soil pressure driving it addressed, not just the wall braced
Learn more→

French Drain Installation

Intercept surface and groundwater before it ever reaches the foundation.

Included in your service

  • Trench graded to fall, gravel bed and perforated pipe wrapped in filter fabric
  • Curtain drains placed uphill of the house where the water actually arrives
  • Outlet tied to daylight or to a pump basin, never left to pond
  • Grading and downspout extensions corrected as part of the job
Learn more→

Drain Tile Repair & Replacement

Many homes here still run on original clay tile that stopped draining decades ago.

Included in your service

  • Camera inspection to locate the collapse, blockage, or root intrusion
  • Targeted excavation rather than replacing the entire run
  • Modern PVC replacement bedded in washed stone
  • Flow tested end to end once the line is reconnected
Learn more→

Vapor Barrier Installation

Stop moisture migrating through block and concrete before you finish the space.

Included in your service

  • Heavy-duty wall and floor barrier sealed at seams and penetrations
  • Fitted around the drainage system so moisture is managed, not trapped behind it
  • The right prep step before framing a basement finish
  • Paired with drainage, because a barrier alone does not remove water
Learn more→

Basement Wall Sealing

Sealers fix minor dampness. They do not beat hydrostatic pressure, and we will tell you which you have.

Included in your service

  • Surface prepared and efflorescence removed down to sound masonry
  • Penetrating or membrane sealer chosen for the wall and the conditions
  • Plain diagnosis of whether sealing is genuinely enough for your basement
  • If the water table is the driver, we say so instead of selling you a coating
Learn more→

Battery Backup Sump Pumps

The power goes out during the storm, which is exactly when the pump matters most.

Included in your service

  • Backup pump and battery sized to your pit and expected inflow
  • Automatic changeover the moment the primary pump loses power
  • Audible alarm so a failure does not go unnoticed
  • Runtime explained honestly, and maintenance checks available
Learn more→

Free Basement Inspection

A written assessment with photos, and a straight answer if nothing is actually wrong.

Included in your service

  • Walls, floor, cracks, and sump system checked point by point
  • Exterior grading, downspouts, and window wells reviewed as water sources
  • Photos and a written explanation of what needs fixing now and what can wait
  • Free and no obligation, including when our answer is that you need nothing
Learn more→

Basement Mold Remediation

Removal paired with the moisture fix, because mold returns wherever the water does.

Included in your service

  • Containment set up before any affected material is disturbed
  • Affected surfaces treated and remediated, damaged materials removed
  • Musty smell traced back to the moisture source rather than masked
  • Drainage or dehumidification added so growth does not restart
Learn more→

Window Well Drainage & Repair

A well that fills becomes a bucket of water held against your foundation.

Included in your service

  • Well excavated and a drain tied into the footing drain or a stone bed
  • Liner set true and backfilled with free-draining stone
  • Clear cover fitted to keep out rain, leaves, and snow
  • A leak source homeowners rarely suspect and inspections often miss
Learn more→

Egress Window Installation

Code-compliant egress, cut and flashed so the new space stays dry.

Included in your service

  • Opening cut and framed to the required egress dimensions
  • Window flashed and sealed against the foundation wall
  • Well drained properly so the new opening is not a water entry point
  • Permit requirements confirmed with the local building department first
