Blue Umbrella Stands For Quality!
There are many contractors in New Jersey offering to repair your foundation or waterproofing your basement. But unfortunately, not all contractors are alike. Too often, contractors will try to help their bottom line by opting to use cheaper products and materials that don’t last as long.
But that doesn’t do much to serve your best interests or the long-term well-being of your home.
At Blue Umbrella Waterproofing, we believe that quality should always come first! From tough 14-mil thick vapor barriers that exceed ASTM E-1745 requirements to carbon fiber straps that combine the amazing strength of carbon fiber with Kevlar, you’ll find that Blue Umbrella goes above and beyond for our New Jersey customers!
For extra peace of mind, ask about our transferable lifetime warranty and how our Umbrella Maintenance Plan keeps basement waterproofing systems in tip-top shape for all those future rainy days!
Morristown, NJ’s Leader in Basement Waterproofing
After heavy rain, the last thing anyone wants to find is a basement that has been turned into a miniature swimming pool. But even if your basement isn’t flooded, having any excess moisture in your basement can lead to a range of wet basement problems:
- Mold growth
- Wood rot
- Termites
- Dust mites
- Excess humidity
- Rust in your HVAC
- Water damage to stored belongings
Mold and dust mites are notorious for being common allergens while termites and wood rot can cause thousands of dollars in structural damage if not addressed quickly. But with Blue Umbrella’s comprehensive basement waterproofing system, you can rest easy knowing that all of these problems can be kept out of your basement.
Along with durable drainage channels and a powerful sump pump, your basement will enjoy the extra protection of a vapor barrier, a sump pump monitoring system, and even an Aprilaire whole-house dehumidifier. Imagine your Morristown basement staying nice and dry, even during those bad rainstorms!
How Does a Sump Pump Monitoring System Work?
Our ShipShape sump pump monitoring system works by keeping you informed of the condition of your sump pump. This includes metrics such as gallons of water pumped and the operational status of your sump pump. ShipShape’s sump pump monitoring systems even provides you with maintenance reminders.
Speaking of maintenance, Blue Umbrella makes it easy with our Umbrella Maintenance Plan. Our basement waterproofing experts in Morristown will ensure your basement waterproofing system is always ready to protect your home.
Morristown, NJ’s Most Reliable Crawl Space Encapsulation Company
Just like basements, crawl spaces are a part of your home and deserve to be protected against the outside elements. The crawl space is often where important house supports, and critical utilities like wiring and plumbing are located. But when a crawl space suffers from water intrusion and high humidity, your crawl space can quickly become home to things you’d rather not have:
- Wood rot in your floor joists and other supports
- Termites
- Wood rot
- Mold growth
- Ants
- Dust mites
- Rodent pests
Blue Umbrella Waterproofing offers only high-grade materials and products in our crawl space encapsulation and crawl space waterproofing services. From 14-mil thick vapor barriers to crawl space dehumidifiers, water, and humidity won’t have a chance of gaining a foothold in your crawl space again.
How Does Crawl Space Encapsulation Improve My Air Quality?
As mentioned above, there are a lot of things that can invade an unsealed crawl space. But thanks to what’s called the Stack Effect, many of those things that would affect the air in your crawl space will get sucked up into the rest of your living space. That means any pollen, mold spores, dust mite particles, and musty humid air–all of that is getting sucked up into your living room, bedroom, and more, and it’s coming straight from your crawl space.
Fortunately, crawl space encapsulation stops all of that, keeping problematic allergens and humidity outside where they belong. You’ll be able to call your house your own again and breathe a lot easier!

The #1 Foundation Repair Contractor in Morristown, NJ
A foundation is like a house’s legs–when a foundation suffers, the stability of your home suffers with it. But before a foundation wall ever collapses, there are warning signs. If you’ve noticed a crack or cracks growing along your foundation wall, it is a sign that your foundation wall is being moved, likely because of hydrostatic pressure. Given enough time, your foundation walls may begin to bow inward or tilt or shear if they’re CMU brick walls.
Fortunately, Blue Umbrella Waterproofing has two high-quality solutions that stop foundation wall movement, ensuring the stability and safety of your home.
Fortress Stabilization Systems’ InvisiBeam: Using patented technologies and products, the
- InvisiBeam system features carbon-Kevlar straps, a top anchor, and a bottom anchor to reinforce and stabilize your foundation walls. Fortress Stabilization Systems’ combination of unidirectional carbon fiber and Kevlar has been used for large projects such as bridges, parking garages, and seawalls. It is perfect for deflections less than 2 inches.
- Steel I-beams: Our I-beams use the renowned strength of high-quality steel and are perfect for reinforcing your foundation walls. They are an ideal solution for walls with a deflection greater than 2 inches but less than 3 inches.
Is It Safe to Live in a House with Foundation Problems?
Ultimately, it depends on the severity of your foundation problems. But if you have a bowing, tilting, or shearing foundation wall, it is critical that you have a foundation repair specialist address the problem. A collapsing foundation wall will cause structural damage to the rest of your home, and it is even possible for a home to collapse because of a compromised foundation.
At Blue Umbrella Waterproofing, we are committed to ensuring that our solutions will 100% work. But if we determine that your foundation wall is beyond the point of a 100% resolution, we will give you our honest assessment and recommend that you contact a professional for foundation wall replacement. Blue Umbrella is the foundation repair contractor in Morristown, NJ who takes your safety and well-being seriously!

A homeowner in Morristown, NJ, called us to help after finding water seeping into his basement.
We determined a 66' interior French drain basement waterproofing system is the best minimally invasive approach. We installed one pit and sump pump along with a battery backup pump.

Mitchell, Morristown, NJ 07960
Basement Waterproofing
After waking up to water in his basement, Mitchell called on us for a custom basement waterproofing system.
First, we removed the lower two feet of drywall along 50 feet of the basement wall to secure the space. We then installed 111 feet of an interior French drain with a sump basin and a pump. This system collects, releases, and enters waters through a Y-connector and gutter system.
We added additional protection to the space with an antimicrobial spray to prevent excess moisture and pests. Mitchell can now rest easy knowing his space is secure.
Gerard, Morristown, NJ 07960
Basement Waterproofing
Gerard called us for a free inspection and quote in Morristown, NJ.
After our initial inspection, we installed 98 feet of an interior French drain and two sump basins. We then installed a sump pump in each sump basin and connected them to an existing discharge line.

Upon completing this basement waterproofing system, Gerard can rest assured knowing his space is secure from invading waters.

One such homeowner, Jonathan, experienced the intruding waters in his basement and called us for a free inspection and quote. We began our installation with a 100-foot interior French drain and window tap, connected to a sump basin and pump to collect and excavate intruding waters to a bubbler pot 15 feet from the home.
We added extra protection with an antimicrobial spray on the wall to protect the space from intruding moisture and outside pests. Jonathan now has a secure space with high-quality products guaranteed with a lifetime transferrable warranty.
