Atlantic Coast Waterproofing Inc

Atlantic Coast is waterproofing Michigan basements one home at a time. Each job that we do receives the proper inspection, diagnosis and quality workmanship that the customer deserves. Our waterproofing solutions are permanent and are not designed to try and stop water but are engineered so we can carry the water away. The key to this fact is that you need to be able to move the water away faster then it is received.

Stories from the Industry is a section of our experiences, not only with our customers but with our day to day activities regarding Waterproofing your Home! We hope that these lessons learned on waterproofing inform you in making the best possible long term decision on your wet basement water problems. These articles are also here to help inform the home owner and educate you in selecting the right waterproofing contractor for the right job.

Mrs. T. calls in for a free inspection and free estimate. The home is located in Rochester Hills, Michigan and has a damp basement. Mrs. T. says she has a block foundation that was built in the 1980's. The problem described was peeling paint, dark stains, mold, and mildew on her lower block walls.

Our inspector arrives to begin the free estimate process. Our inspector confirms that the customer has stagnant water sitting in the hollow block walls causing a breeding ground for mold and mildew. We advise her that work should be done right away so that the mold problem does not spread and get any worse. Luckily, Mrs. T. had received two other estimates already...Continue on to our Stories from the Industry Page

Thank you for looking into Atlantic Coast Waterproofing, Inc. We are a full service waterproofing and structural repair corporation. We offer free inspections and quotes for the entire Southeastern Michigan Area. We look forward to serving you and your waterproofing needs.

Atlantic Coast Waterproofing, Inc. is owned and operated by Gary and Denice Lustig. Gary is the son of Greg Lustig who is one of the worlds leading authorities on basement waterproofing. Greg got his start 37 years ago in Boston, Massachusetts, working with the preservation of historical buildings. He still specializes in old brick and stone foundations elating back to the 1700’s. He says working with block and poured concrete foundations is like kindergarten in comparison. Atlantic Coast Waterproofing, Inc. has done consulting all over the country but has mainly done work on the East Coast. The corporation was based out of Washington D.C. and has done consulting and service for over 20 foreign embassies. This is not an easy task because of foreign building codes and different procedures. Atlantic Coast Waterproofing, Inc. has installed many different types of systems in hospitals, universities, and other government buildings.

As a native Michigander Greg has returned home and his corporation is now headed up by Gary Lustig, his son and protégé. Gary has over 25 years of experience analyzing water problems and personally installing systems...Continue on to read more About Us.

Very few builders construct their own foundations. Almost all foundations are sub-contracted to only a few contractors that build them. The contractors that are building a foundation at the beginning of the week for a fifty thousand dollar home are the same contractors at the end of the week building a foundation for a two million dollar home. Therefore the myth that the more expensive the house is the better the foundation is built, is only a myth. Contrary to popular belief, both basements are built the same way.

Surprisingly in most cities and towns, the building codes for waterproofing have not changed since they were written fifty to sixty years ago. This gives the builder basically carte blanche on how he wants to waterproof.... Continue on to our Information Page

How much $$$ of your Estimate is Paying for their Ads?

We advertise waterproofing services locally, plain and simple. We service and try to focus on Genesee, Livingston and Oakland Counties, which includes: Fenton, Flint, Burton, Holly, Hartland, Argentine, Clarkston, Waterford, Clintonville, Lake Orion, Royal Oak, Oxford, Metamora, Goodrich, Grand Blanc, Byron, Cohoctah, Troy, Auburn Hills, Milford, Pontiac, Rochester Hills, West Bloomfield, Bloomfield Hills, and Birmingham. We are not limited to these cities either and will provide estimates throughout the South Eastern Michigan Counties. We are in business for our local public and residential customers. When you contact us we will answer your questions that you may have, schedule an appointment, arrive at your location, and then start the free estimate process. Our waterproofing team saves you money. For one we do not spend money on high dollar advertisements, or franchise fees. We are focused on word of mouth and local advertisements. If you see a large bill board on the side of I-75 coming down into Detroit, that right there added cost to your estimate. Other companies have to pay for the mega advertisements, commercials on the T.V. and Radio, we cut that out as best we can but still advertise to you "locally." No franchise fees, or costs associated with Patent Pending Systems or Trade Marked systems. We are real "Word of Mouth" Advertisers. We are in your local Yellow Pages, Yellow Book, Val-Pak, and frequent the home builder expo shows around our area.
