About Brooklyn Foundation Pros

Brooklyn Foundation Pros exists for one reason: New York City's old houses have foundation problems, and most homeowners have no idea who to trust with them. We are a foundation repair and basement waterproofing company built specifically around NYC's housing stock — the brownstones, rowhouses, tenements, and two-family homes whose foundations were poured or laid a century ago and are now showing their age.

Why We Focus on Foundations

Most general contractors treat foundation work as a sideline. We do the opposite. Every day we diagnose settlement, install underpinning piers, inject foundation cracks, and build interior drainage systems. That focus means we have seen virtually every failure mode NYC soil and weather can produce — from bowing block walls in Bay Ridge to sinking brownstone footings in Park Slope to flooded basements in Gowanus — and we know which fix actually works for each one.

How We Work

Every job starts with a free on-site assessment. We measure floor elevations, check walls for lateral movement, trace water entry points, and photograph everything. Then we give you a written diagnosis with options — not a scare-tactic sales pitch. If your foundation is fine and just needs moisture control, we will tell you that. If it needs wall stabilization, we will show you the measurements that prove it.

On permitted work — underpinning, structural wall rebuilds, significant excavation — we handle the NYC Department of Buildings paperwork. Our crews keep the work zone contained, protect your landscaping, and leave the site clean. Most interior jobs finish in days, not weeks.

What We Will Not Do

We will not invent problems to sell solutions. We will not quote a full perimeter drain system when a single crack injection would do. We will not start work without a written scope and a firm price. And we will not disappear after the check clears — our waterproofing and structural work carries written warranties, and we answer the phone when you call.

Our Service Area

We are based in Brooklyn and work across the entire New York City metro: Brooklyn (including Park Slope, Williamsburg, Bushwick, and Bay Ridge), Queens (including Astoria, Flushing, and Forest Hills), Manhattan, the Bronx (including Riverdale), Staten Island, and Long Island. Wherever your home sits, its foundation problems follow the same physics — and our fixes follow the same engineering.
