Interior Basement Waterproofing in Westborough, MA

Westborough Basements, Kept Dry From Inside

Water is caught at the footing, sent to a sump pit and pumped out of the house

Interior basement waterproofing works from inside a Westborough home, right where groundwater comes in. We lay a perforated drain along the footing, under the edge of the slab, so seepage from the walls and floor flows to a sealed sump pit. The pump lifts it out through a discharge line that ends on your property, draining away from the foundation. Owner Diego Tameirao brings 25+ years to every job and personally supervises each one.

Why Act Now

What a Wet Basement Costs Over Time

Small leaks rarely stay small, and the damage adds up

Equipment Sitting in Water

Furnaces, water heaters and washers sit right on the slab. Each wet spell rusts their bases a bit more and shortens their working life.

Mold on Anything Organic

Cardboard, framing, carpet and drywall feed mold once they stay damp. By the time you smell it, it has usually spread behind things.

Questions at Resale Time

Home inspectors look for water stains and white crust on walls. Buyers who spot them tend to ask for repairs or a lower price.

Where Two Rivers Get Their Start

Westborough sits on wet ground, and the town manages its water very closely

The Sudbury River begins in Westborough’s Cedar Swamp, a wetland district of more than 2,600 acres listed on the National Register in 1988. The Assabet River rises here too, from a 310-acre swampy area called the Assabet Reservoir, and the George H. Nichols Dam was built in town in the late 1960s for flood control.

Capacity is tight on the sewer side as well. In April 2024 the Select Board put a one-year moratorium on new sewer connections and added flow, with the town’s average use at 2.27 million gallons a day against an allocation of 2.89. That July, Westborough also started billing a stormwater fee based on impervious area.

What Wet Ground Means for Your System

Homes near wetlands and headwaters need a system that plans for long wet spells

Water Tables Stay High Longer

Near swamps and low ground, groundwater drops slowly after spring. The drain and pit have to handle weeks of steady seepage, not just the quick burst that follows a single storm.

Pumps Run in Longer Cycles

When the ground stays saturated, the pump may cycle for days at a time. We size the pump and pit for that steady load, so the pump isn't short-cycling and wearing itself out early.

Room for Water to Soak In

Saturated ground doesn't absorb much. The discharge line needs to end where water can drain off and away, not where it will pond by the foundation and find its way back in.
