Who We Are

Ask around in Ghent and you'll find Arrow Tight Waterproofing mentioned by name — not because of an ad, but because a crew showed up, found the real problem, and fixed it the first time.

Licensing here isn't a formality — every crew member is licensed in KY and specifically trained in the below-grade water intrusion work that Waterproofing actually requires.

Response speed matters as much as technique in this trade, which is why our regional crews carry sump pumps, injection resin, and extraction equipment on every truck.

We believe a homeowner should be able to see the evidence behind a recommendation, not just take our word for it — every diagnostic visit comes with documented findings you can keep.

Warning Signs You Shouldn't Wait On

Catching these signs early usually means a smaller repair bill and a lot less disruption to your home.

A musty smell that returns no matter how often you clean the basement.

Efflorescence, that white crusty residue on foundation walls, is water evaporating and leaving mineral salts behind.

Doors and windows that stick or won't latch properly, especially on the lowest level.

Even a crack thinner than a coin can be an active entry point once hydrostatic pressure builds behind the wall.

If a heavy storm reliably means a wet spot on the basement floor, that's a pattern, not bad luck.

If you can't remember the last time your sump pump was tested, that's worth addressing before the next storm does it for you.

A wall that bows inward even slightly is responding to soil pressure that isn't going away on its own.

A hygrometer reading that stays above 60% no matter how much you run a dehumidifier usually points to an active intrusion source.

If metal items in your basement are corroding faster than they should, ambient moisture is almost certainly the cause.

Core Waterproofing Solutions in Ghent

From emergency response to permanent structural fixes, here's the full range of work our crews handle in Ghent.

24/7 Emergency Waterproofing experts in Ghent, KY

Emergency Water Extraction & Stabilization

Active flooding gets priority dispatch, with crews arriving equipped to extract water immediately and begin drying before secondary damage sets in. We follow extraction with a full moisture survey so the permanent fix addresses the actual source, not just the visible symptom.

Interior Drain Tile & Sump Systems

This is the most common permanent fix for hydrostatic pressure seepage — proven, code-recognized, and installed without exterior excavation. Every basin includes a check valve, sealed lid, and battery backup so a power outage doesn't undo the fix.

Foundation Crack Injection

Non-structural cracks respond well to polyurethane or epoxy injection depending on whether water is actively present and whether the crack is still moving. Photos and measurements are logged before and after every injection for your records.

Exterior Excavation & Membrane Application

Where the source is grading, a failed footing drain, or membrane failure visible from outside, exterior excavation and a rubberized membrane address the problem at its origin.

Crawl Space Encapsulation & Vapor Control

We size dehumidification equipment to your specific crawl space volume rather than a one-size-fits-all unit.

Sump Pump Installation & Battery Backup

We calculate your pit's actual inflow rate before recommending pump horsepower, since an undersized pump is one of the most common causes of preventable flooding. Cellular notification add-ons alert your phone directly if the system is ever triggered.

Wall Vapor Barrier & Structural Reinforcement

Dimple-board membrane installed against a foundation wall creates an air gap that channels incidental moisture down to a collection point instead of letting it wick into finished drywall. We explain the engineering rationale before recommending any wall reinforcement work.

Why Ghent, KY Homeowners Choose Arrow Tight Waterproofing

Here's what you're really getting when you call Arrow Tight Waterproofing for Waterproofing in Ghent.

It's easy to promise fast, honest Waterproofing service in an ad — the real test is whether that promise holds up once a technician is actually standing in your basement.

1

Same-Day Response for Active Intrusion

We understand active seepage doesn't wait for a convenient slot, so emergency calls get dispatched immediately with equipment already loaded.

2

Written, Itemized Pricing — No Surprises

Every quote breaks out material, labor, and equipment separately, delivered in writing before any drilling or coring begins.

3

Diagnosis Before Recommendation, Always

Technicians are trained to identify the real entry point, not just treat the most visible symptom.

4

Licensed Specialists, Not General Contractors

Certification covers the specific systems we install — drain tile, sump basins, exterior membranes — not general construction knowledge alone.

5

Written Warranty on Every Installed System

We stand behind installed systems with documented warranty terms included in your quote, not a verbal promise that's hard to pin down later.

We keep the process consistent for every single job so you always know exactly what to expect next, whether it's an emergency call or a scheduled inspection.

1

Call & Triage

Describe the issue — a damp wall, standing water, a musty smell — and dispatch routes the right crew with matching equipment.

On-Site Diagnostic Visit

The diagnostic visit maps your full basement or crawl space perimeter before any repair is recommended.

Once you approve the scope, installation is scheduled — often within days, faster for active emergencies.

Installation & Verification

We test drain tile flow, pump activation, and injection fill before the crew leaves the property.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions homeowners ask most before booking Waterproofing service.

How fast can a Waterproofing technician arrive in Ghent, KY?+
Response time depends on distance from the nearest staged crew, but active leaks are treated as priority dispatch across Ghent, KY.
Do you provide upfront, flat-rate pricing?+
You'll know the full cost before work starts; nothing gets added mid-job without your sign-off first.
Will interior drain tile actually stop the water, or just hide it?+
It's a proven, code-recognized method for managing hydrostatic pressure, not a cosmetic fix that just moves the problem out of sight.
Do I need exterior excavation or can interior work solve it?+
Most seepage from hydrostatic pressure is fully addressable with interior drain tile — excavation is usually reserved for grading or membrane failures visible from outside.
What's the difference between a hairline crack and a structural one?+
A hairline crack is typically under an eighth of an inch and stable — a good candidate for injection. A structural crack shows displacement or is still widening and needs engineering evaluation first.
Is waterproofing work covered by a warranty?+
Warranty terms are included in your written quote before work begins, so there's no ambiguity about what's covered.
How long does a typical installation take?+
Exterior excavation projects take longer, typically several days, depending on wall section length and access.
Do you work on older homes with existing foundation issues?+
We assess existing conditions carefully on older homes since prior DIY fixes sometimes mask the real problem.
What causes a basement to flood in the first place?+
Every property is different — our diagnostic identifies your specific combination of contributing factors rather than assuming a single cause.
Can you help with insurance documentation after a flood?+
We document extraction and mitigation work with photos, moisture readings, and timestamps you can include with a claim.
Do you offer emergency service outside business hours?+
Yes, emergency dispatch operates continuously for active flooding and failed sump pumps, including nights and weekends.
Can you work with my homeowner's insurance claim directly?+
We're not a public adjuster, but we document every job with dated photos and moisture readings formatted for insurance submission.
Do I need to be home during the diagnostic visit?+
Yes, we ask that someone be present so the technician can walk the findings through with you directly before any recommendation is made.
What's the first sign I should call about, even if it seems minor?+
Efflorescence — that white chalky residue on concrete — is an easy one to miss but worth addressing early.
Do you offer any kind of maintenance check after installation?+
Sump systems in particular benefit from an annual check, which we can schedule as a simple follow-up visit.
Will waterproofing work lower my homeowner's insurance premium?+
It varies by insurer, but a documented drain tile or sump installation is worth mentioning to your agent when you renew.
Do you offer financing for larger projects?+
Financing availability depends on project scope; smaller single-system jobs are usually straightforward flat-rate, while larger combination repairs sometimes qualify for financing.
How do I know if I actually need waterproofing or just better gutters?+
Poor gutter drainage is a common contributing factor, but it's rarely the whole story — our diagnostic checks both grading and foundation condition before recommending a fix.
Do you guarantee your work in writing, not just verbally?+
We put warranty coverage in writing specifically because verbal promises are hard to enforce months or years later when you actually need them.
What should I do right now if water is actively coming in?+
Move valuables away from the affected area if it's safe to do so, then call +1-866-476-1348 so extraction can begin as soon as a crew arrives.
