Halo Water Proofing has been the Old Hickory area's go-to call for Wet Basement Repair because we answer the phone, show up on time, and stand behind the work.
We're Halo Water Proofing — a TN-licensed, fully insured waterproofing outfit that's spent years learning exactly how water moves through Old Hickory-area foundations, and exactly how to stop it.
We don't send apprentices to figure it out on your dime. Every Old Hickory job is run by a technician who has done this exact repair dozens of times, with a supervisor who signs off before we call it finished.
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 Old Hickory technicians hear about most often before an inspection.
Odor is often the first sign Old Hickory customers notice, well before any visible water shows up.
Stair-step cracks in block foundations are a common early warning sign we see across Old Hickory-area homes.
Efflorescence is a clear sign that water is actively passing through your Old Hickory foundation wall, even if you've never seen standing water.
A sump pump that never stops cycling is often working harder than it should, or is undersized for your Old Hickory lot's water table.
If a foundation wall looks like it's leaning or bulging inward, that's beyond a simple seal and needs a full assessment.
Flooring that's cupping or warping near an exterior wall is a common clue our Old Hickory crews trace back to a drainage issue.
Every Old Hickory property is different — soil, slope, foundation age, water table depth. We size the fix to the actual problem, not a one-size package.
Storm season in Old Hickory, TN means our emergency line gets busy fast — we triage calls by severity so active flooding at your Old Hickory address jumps the queue ahead of routine inspections.
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 Old Hickory crews assess whether it's a simple seal or a sign of bigger settlement issues before recommending a fix.
Get a Crack Assessment →Most sump pump failures we see in Old Hickory happen during the exact storms that need them most — a battery backup closes that gap when the power drops.
Schedule a Pump Inspection →Some Old Hickory lots need both an interior and exterior system working together — we'll tell you honestly if that's the case rather than selling just one.
Ask About Drain Systems →Musty smell upstairs that you can't explain? It's usually the crawl space. Our Old Hickory crews encapsulate the space fully — floor, walls, and vents — so moisture stops migrating into your living areas.
Get a Crawl Space Quote →We work directly with Old Hickory property managers and business owners on below-grade waterproofing, parking structure sealing, and large-scale drainage corrections — scheduled around your operating hours.
Request a Commercial Quote →No confusing steps, no hard sell — just the same process our Old Hickory crews follow on every job.
We start with a phone conversation, not a script — enough to know whether this is an emergency dispatch or a scheduled inspection.
We walk the space with you, point out what we find, and explain it in plain language — no jargon, no pressure.
No verbal estimates that change later. What's quoted for your Old Hickory job is what's invoiced.
Once the repair is done, you get documentation of the work and a written warranty — not just a handshake.
There's no verbal quote that magically grows once the crew arrives at your Old Hickory property — the written estimate is the final word.
Because we're actually based near Old Hickory rather than routing calls through a national center, we can usually get someone out the same day you call.
Our repairs come with written, transferable warranties — a real asset if you sell the Old Hickory property later.
Our technicians are paid to diagnose correctly, not to upsell — that changes the advice you actually get on-site.
We document the damage with photos and a written scope your insurance adjuster can actually use, and we'll walk you through the claim process.
Word of mouth is still how most Old Hickory 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."

"Straightforward commercial quote, no back-and-forth, crew was professional the whole project."
"French drain install took two days like they said it would, not five. Yard was put back together better than before."
