Colorado’s unique geography and climate make water intrusion a serious risk for homeowners. With the Rocky Mountains to the west and the plains to the east, the state experiences a wide range of weather conditions. While Colorado gets less rain than many other parts of the country, when it does rain, it often comes down fast and hard. Combine that with our dense, less permeable soils, and you have a recipe for potential basement flooding and foundation issues.
Even though we live in a semi-arid region, homes in Colorado are still vulnerable to flooding and water damage. Our soil doesn’t absorb water quickly, so heavy rain or rapid snowmelt can cause water to pool around your foundation. If water seeps into your basement, it can lead to more than just a wet floor. It can cause foundation cracks, structural damage, mold growth, and costly repairs.
At HomeStrong, we specialize in complete basement waterproofing designed specifically for Colorado homes. We offer both interior and exterior drainage systems to keep your basement and foundation dry.
Interior drains are a popular and cost-effective solution. They’re less invasive to install and work well for managing water that enters through walls or the floor. One of our most trusted systems is the TopDrain system, which comes with a lifetime transferable warranty against water intrusion.
Exterior waterproofing tackles the problem at its source, outside the home. Our go-to solution is the French drain system, which uses a 4” PVC pipe inside a fabric sock, surrounded by rock and wrapped in geo fabric. This system helps divert water away from the foundation and is ideal for controlling moisture, soil expansion, and wall deterioration.
If you’ve noticed water in your basement, cracks in your foundation, or signs of moisture damage, don’t wait.

Interior drainage systems are installed inside your basement or crawl space, along the perimeter of the foundation. They capture water that enters the home and direct it to a sump pump. Exterior drainage systems are installed outside the foundation to stop water before it reaches your basement walls. Both serve the same goal of keeping your home dry but work in different ways.
It depends on where the water is coming from and the condition of your foundation. Interior drains are a great solution for managing water that is already entering the basement, while exterior systems are best for preventing water from getting to the foundation in the first place. Our team at HomeStrong can inspect your property and recommend the best option for your situation.
Yes. Interior drain systems usually require removing a section of basement floor to install a drainage channel, which is then covered and sealed. It is typically faster and more affordable to install than exterior systems, which involve excavating around the outside of the foundation.
Interior drain systems can often be installed in one to two days. Exterior systems may take longer depending on excavation needs, landscaping, and weather. We will provide a clear timeline during your free inspection.
