Foundation Repair You Can Build Upon
Since our founding in 1965, Rite-Way Waterproofing has used the same drain-tile installation system - proving that we do things the rite-way. Headquartered in Minnesota, we are knowledgeable about the variety of weather events that occur throughout our four-season year. Sub-zero winters that bring an average of 40+ inches of snow; Spring rains that lead to fast melting and yearly floods; Summer humidity that encourages mold and mildew growth; and finally the Fall freeze-thaw cycles that promote foundation cracking, shifting and water seepage. As a professional waterproofing contractor we are well versed in all of the services, systems and techniques related to exterior waterproofing, basement comfort and foundation repair for the residential, commercial and industrial sectors.
Not only are we experienced and highly trained in all of the services we provide but we also stand behind our work, taking pride in completing a job well done. Whether you need us for rain gutter control or to perform a complete basement-waterproofing overhaul, you can be assured that we will explain all of your options, provide quality workmanship backed by professional customer service and competitive prices.

"I've sold my house and decided to write a quick review of the work Rite-Way did for me. I never thought a dry basement in a wet area would have such an effect on me, but it did. I never had water in my basement when I purchased my house back in 2005. Fast forward a handful of years later and the water table started to rise and my basement started flooding with .5" of water. This was a finished basement so can imagine how much damage this did. I'll admit, I was fairly desperate to correct the issue so I didn't do a lot of research of the numerous companies offering water proofing services. I went with the company that would be able to do it the quickest, Rite-Way was able to get me on the books same week and promise me a 1 day completion. They installed a perimeter drain system with sump pump in a single day. Everything went as promised. It was simple and fast. Fast forward to 2018 and I can confirm I've never seen a drop of water bypass their drain tile system. Torrential downpours, extreme snow melt...not a drop of water in the basement. Thank you Rite-Way."

"This company was professional from the first phone call. The GM was on vacation when I first called and he called me back right away even on vacation. We scheduled a consultation and he came out gave up front costs involved and the entire plan of what was to come.
They came out today. I personally want to thank Victor. He was the foreman on the job. He provided great direction and motivation to his crew and set an example of what was expected from his colleagues. The preparation keeping things clean was above my expectation. They cleaned up well. Passed an inspection and guarantee their work forever more or less...
Victor you are a class act and I appreciate it all. GREAT JOB!!! Thank you all for treating me and my family with respect to us and our home.
I would recommend this company to anyone looking to mitigate water issues within your home.
Thanks Again!"

"5+! This is a great company! Our home was drain tiled in 1977 by Rite-Way Waterproofing, which has since traded hands, but still there. We have been in our home for 30 years and had troubles last September (2018) with our drain tile failing. We contacted the company that put ours in and they came out and were able to fix it. We ended up installing an additional pump as well because our home has settled. I would recommend Rite-Way Waterproofing! The guys were prompt, courteous and respectful of my home....and worked until they figured out the problem! We finally just got our home put back together....I have to say I went home yesterday and everything is running and no water!!!"

"I have used Rite-Way on three different houses. Each house was completely dry after they were done. They are very reasonably priced and exceptionally professional. The crew was great and they clean up after themselves, going out the door. Thank you so much!"

"A week ago we noticed water in our basement and the first quote we got they said $4,200 for new drain tile. We got a second opinion from this company and Jeremy discovered that our hot water heater was leaking and causing out water issue. He gave us numbers for plumbers and never charged us. Jeremy was wonderful and very professional. It's nice knowing that there is still an honest trustworthy company that isn't looking to make money but does what is best for the client."

"Very trustworthy, honest and high quality company. They worked on my previous house back in 2010. Due to faulty drain tile I had significant water intrusion in my lower level after every rainfall. Since after Rite-Way came in, my floors have been dry, not a single wet spot up to this day.
I moved to a new house several months ago and recently discovered a wet area on the floor in one of the rooms, in lower level. Jeremy Orton, same person who fixed the water intrusion problem in my previous house came in to identify the cause of my wet floor. Within 5 minutes he detected that my issue was in fact a plumbing matter, rather than storm water intrusion (my kitchen drain pipe was cracked inside the wall and was leaking waste water on the floor). Even though his task was over at this point and he could have left, Jeremy stayed longer and traced the exact location of that leak in drain pipe; he also drew a sketch, which helped me to more precisely describe my issue to plumbing company. Jeremy never charged a single dime for his time and diagnosing the cause of my wet floor. That's what I call excellent customer care, above and beyond! Thank you, Jeremy!"

"Our basement had a small leak and I was afraid it would be an expensive fix. They told me a few things it could be to try before spending any money so they actually tried to help and weren't all about the money. I would highly recommend!"

"Today is the 6th day of nearly nonstop rain in an already very wet Spring 2017. We had Rite-Way install a complete interior drain tile and sump system 3 years ago. That's 3 years that our basement has been DRY AS A BONE! Prior to this, every rainstorm caused water to pool in low spots in the basement. We tried regrading around the house and new gutters with no effect. Our 40x26 foundation cost $6,500 for everything, including the $1,000 battery backup system required by our insurance company. Worth every dang penny."
