Halo Water Proofing has been the Reston area's go-to call for Exterior Waterproofing because we answer the phone, show up on time, and stand behind the work.
We're Halo Water Proofing — a VA-licensed, fully insured waterproofing outfit that's spent years learning exactly how water moves through Reston-area foundations, and exactly how to stop it.
Every technician on our Reston crew is background-checked, factory-trained on the equipment we install, and held to the same estimate we quote you over the phone — no upsell surprises when the truck pulls up.
One call gets you a straight answer and a real appointment window — not a call-back promise.
📞 +1-866-476-1348Water problems rarely announce themselves all at once — they usually show up as small clues first. Here's what our Reston technicians hear about most often before an inspection.
A musty smell in the basement or crawl space is usually moisture you can't see yet, not just "old house smell."
Even small cracks are worth a second look — they rarely stay small once seasonal ground movement gets involved.
It's easy to dismiss efflorescence as harmless dust, but it actually signals active moisture movement through the wall.
A pump under constant strain tends to fail at the worst possible time — usually during the next big Reston storm.
If a foundation wall looks like it's leaning or bulging inward, that's beyond a simple seal and needs a full assessment.
Peeling paint low on a basement wall or warped baseboards upstairs often trace back to moisture migrating up from below.
From an emergency pump swap at 2 a.m. to a full exterior drainage system, this is the work we do in Reston every day.
Standing water in your basement doesn't wait for business hours, and neither do we. Our Reston emergency crews extract standing water first, then diagnose the source so it doesn't happen again next storm.
Call for Emergency Service →Hairline cracks are how most Reston basements start leaking. We use epoxy injection to seal the crack from the inside out, stopping the leak at the source instead of just painting over the symptom.
Get a Crack Assessment →Most sump pump failures we see in Reston happen during the exact storms that need them most — a battery backup closes that gap when the power drops.
Schedule a Pump Inspection →Some Reston 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 Reston 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 Reston property managers and business owners on below-grade waterproofing, parking structure sealing, and large-scale drainage corrections — scheduled around your operating hours.

"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."
"Fair price, showed up on time, cleaned up after themselves. Wish more contractors worked like this."
"Our old sump pump died during the worst storm of the year, obviously. They had a battery backup system installed within a day. Haven't worried about it since."
"Managed our building's parking garage waterproofing project. Kept to the schedule, communicated well with tenants, minimal disruption."
"We had three foundation cracks and expected a huge bill. Turned out only one needed injection — they didn't try to sell us on the other two. That honesty is rare."
"Technician actually explained why the water was coming in instead of just quoting a number. First contractor who's done that for us."
