Who We Are: A Licensed Waterproofing Crew in Upland
Arrow Tight Waterproofing exists because too many property owners in Upland were getting patchwork fixes instead of real diagnosis. Our crews are licensed in PA, carry full liability coverage, and are trained to find the actual water path before recommending anything.
We've built our reputation in Upland on jobs that don't need a second visit. That means slower quoting sometimes, since we're inspecting properly instead of estimating from a driveway conversation, but it also means fewer callbacks.
Every technician completes ongoing training as materials and methods evolve â the polyurethane injection resin we use today isn't the same formulation the industry relied on ten years ago, and neither is our crew's training.
IICRC-certified technicians on every job, no exceptions
licensed in PA with full liability and workers' comp coverage
Thermal imaging and calibrated moisture readings before every quote
Written, transferable warranty on all completed systems
Direct-employee crews â never subcontracted out
Warning Signs
What a Failing Foundation Actually Looks Like
Waiting until you see standing water means you've already missed the cheaper fix. These are the early signals our crews are trained to catch in Upland.
01
Efflorescence on Basement Walls
That chalky white residue on concrete or block isn't dirt â it's mineral salt left behind after water has already migrated through the wall.
02
A Musty Smell That Won't Go Away
Persistent musty odor almost always traces back to elevated humidity or an active leak feeding mold growth somewhere you can't see.
03
Cracks Along the Wall-Floor Joint
This is the exact spot our technicians check first on every basement inspection, because it tells us more about the pressure situation than almost anywhere else.
04
A Sump Pump That Never Stops Running
A sump that runs nonstop during rain is a system working past its design limit, not a system doing its job well.
05
Bowing or Leaning Foundation Walls
A wall that's no longer plumb is telling you the soil outside is pushing harder than the wall was built to resist.
06
Rust Stains Bleeding Through Concrete
Rust streaks mean water has reached embedded rebar or metal lath and started oxidizing it â a sign moisture has penetrated deeper than the surface.
07
Peeling Paint or Soft Drywall Near the Floor
If the bottom foot of drywall in a below-grade room feels soft or the paint is bubbling, that's usually vapor transmission through the wall, not a plumbing leak.
08
Cold, Damp Floors Above a Crawl Space
Floors that stay cold and slightly damp-feeling even with the heat running usually trace back to an open or failed vapor barrier beneath the house, not an HVAC problem.
Core Services
Complete Waterproofing Solutions, in Upland
We don't sell a single fixed package â every property in Upland gets a scope built around what our inspection actually finds.
01
Emergency Water Intrusion Response
Active flooding doesn't wait for business hours, and neither do we â our emergency line in Upland is answered live, 24 hours a day, with crews dispatched to stop the immediate entry point first.
Every emergency truck carries submersible pumps, temporary sump units, and crack-sealing materials, so most active leaks can be stabilized on the first visit.
Residential waterproofing in Upland covers everything from a single crack injection to a full-perimeter drainage retrofit, scoped after a real inspection.
Every residential install includes post-job moisture verification, so you have documented proof the system is working, not just our word for it.
For property managers in Upland, we coordinate around occupied units and business hours, minimizing disruption while still delivering a full waterproofing scope.
We provide the same written, itemized proposals for commercial clients as residential ones, with the added documentation many property managers need for ownership or insurance records.
Beyond drainage, our crews handle foundation crack injection, carbon fiber wall reinforcement, and structural crack classification for properties in Upland showing signs of settlement or lateral pressure.
Every structural repair is documented with before-and-after photos and moisture readings as part of your warranty file.
A waterproofing system is only as reliable as the pump moving water out of it â we size, install, and upgrade sump systems in Upland to match actual groundwater volume rather than defaulting to whatever's in stock.
Battery backup and monitored alarm options are available on every pump we install, so a power outage during a storm doesn't leave the system unprotected.
Every waterproofing company claims to be the best. Here's what we actually do differently, and why it holds up under scrutiny.
Upfront, Itemized Pricing
We quote a fixed price after a real inspection, not a phone estimate, and we get written sign-off before any change to that scope.
Fast Local Dispatch
We don't run a single centralized dispatch queue; regional staging means the crew reaching you in Upland isn't driving hours to get there.
Satisfaction Backed in Writing
Warranty documentation is registered to the property address, so it transfers automatically if you sell, without needing to track us down for paperwork.
Commercial-Grade Materials, Every Time
We install the same membrane specification, pipe schedule, and pump ratings on residential jobs that commercial contracts require â never a downgraded consumer-grade substitute.
Diagnosis Before Recommendation
Our technicians document the actual water path and pressure source before recommending a fix, so you're paying for the right repair the first time.
Our Process
How a Waterproofing Job Works With Us
01
Call or Request an Inspection
Call +1-866-476-1348 and describe the issue. We route the right technician for your specific situation rather than a generalist.
02
On-Site Diagnosis
A certified technician inspects the property with thermal imaging and moisture meters, mapping the actual water path before recommending anything.
03
Written, Fixed-Price Proposal
Review the proposal at your own pace; we don't pressure same-visit sign-off, though we can often start within days once approved.
04
Installation & Warranty Documentation
We also walk you through basic maintenance for whatever was installed, so you know what to check twice a year to keep the system performing as designed.

What Customers Say About Arrow Tight Waterproofing
â â â â â
"Had a cove joint leak that two other companies just patched without explaining why it kept happening. Arrow Tight Waterproofing's technician showed me the moisture readings and traced it to hydrostatic pressure, then installed drain tile that's held through every storm since.Would recommend them without hesitation."
R. â Homeowner, Upland
â â â â â
"Called at 11 PM with active water coming in during a storm. Live person answered immediately, crew was on-site within the hour, and they had a temporary pump running before starting the real diagnosis.Would recommend them without hesitation."
K. â Emergency Client, Upland
â â â â â
"We manage a small multi-unit building and needed the work scheduled around tenants. They coordinated everything cleanly and the commercial-grade membrane they used has zero callbacks two years later.Exactly the level of service we expected."
T. â Property Manager, Upland
â â â â â
"Appreciated that they didn't just sell us a package. The inspection actually found the real problem â a bowing block wall â and the carbon fiber reinforcement plus crack injection fixed it properly instead of just sealing the surface.That's the kind of fix that actually holds up."
M. â Homeowner, Upland
â â â â â
"Sump pump had been cycling nonstop for weeks before we called. They correctly diagnosed it as undersized for our actual water table and upgraded it â no more constant cycling, and it's kept up with two heavy storms since.That's the kind of fix that actually holds up."
D. â Homeowner, Upland
â â â â â
"We're a small property management company and needed drainage work done across three units without disrupting tenants. Arrow Tight Waterproofing scheduled around occupied hours, communicated clearly with residents, and the itemized invoice matched the original proposal exactly.Exactly the level of service we expected."

FAQ
Waterproofing Frequently Asked Questions
Standard inspections are typically scheduled within a few days of your call; active emergencies get same-day priority dispatch in most of our coverage area.
Yes â every job gets a written, itemized proposal after a real on-site inspection, and that number is what you're invoiced, not an estimate that grows once work starts.
Emergency response covers active flooding, sudden sump failure, and burst pipe water intrusion â we stabilize the situation first, then scope the permanent repair.
If interior fixes haven't held or the wall shows active exterior deterioration, exterior waterproofing is usually the better long-term answer â we'll tell you honestly which applies.
Gradual groundwater seepage is typically treated as a maintenance issue and excluded, while sudden events like burst pipes are often covered â check your specific policy language.
Timeline depends entirely on scope â we give you a written schedule estimate as part of the proposal so there's no ambiguity going in.
Always an in-person inspection â we don't quote sight-unseen, because an accurate scope requires actually seeing the moisture pattern and access conditions.
Warranty terms are documented and registered to the property address, with a clear process for filing a service claim if anything comes up.
Coverage extends across Upland â call +1-866-476-1348 to confirm your specific address, though it's almost certainly within our service area.
For the initial inspection, yes â we need access to the affected area and it helps to walk through what we're seeing together, though the visit is usually under an hour.
A patch treats the visible symptom â a caulked crack, a coat of sealant â without addressing why water found that path in the first place, so the same issue often resurfaces nearby.
Some clients ask us to speak directly with their adjuster about scope and materials, and we're glad to when it's useful for a claim already in progress.
Service Area
Our Service Footprint, in Upland
We built our coverage in Upland around regional crew staging rather than one central office, which keeps dispatch times shorter across the footprint we serve.
Call +1-866-476-1348 to confirm coverage for your specific address â given our regional staging in Upland, it's very likely within our service area.
Coverage isn't limited to single-family homes â we service condos, multi-unit rentals, and small commercial buildings in Upland using the same diagnostic-first process regardless of property type.
New service areas are added as we expand our regional crew staging, so if you were told we didn't cover your address in the past, it's worth checking again.
