Halo Water Proofing has been the Hillside 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 IL-licensed, fully insured waterproofing outfit that's spent years learning exactly how water moves through Hillside-area foundations, and exactly how to stop it.

Every technician on our Hillside 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.
📞 +1-866-476-1348Most Hillside customers didn't wake up one day with a flooded basement. It usually started small. These are the early signs worth calling about.
Odor is often the first sign Hillside customers notice, well before any visible water shows up.
Hairline cracks can widen over a Hillside winter's freeze-thaw cycle and become active leak points by spring.
That white chalky film on basement walls is efflorescence — mineral deposits left behind as water evaporates through concrete.
A sump pump that never stops cycling is often working harder than it should, or is undersized for your Hillside lot's water table.
A bowing basement wall is a structural concern in addition to a water one — this is the kind of Hillside call we prioritize fast.
Peeling paint low on a basement wall or warped baseboards upstairs often trace back to moisture migrating up from below.
Every Hillside property is different — soil, slope, foundation age, water table depth. We size the fix to the actual problem, not a one-size package.
When your Hillside basement floods, minutes matter for your drywall, flooring, and belongings. We dispatch a crew around the clock, pull the water, and start drying the space with commercial-grade equipment the same visit.
Call for Emergency Service →Freeze-thaw cycles in Hillside, IL push existing cracks wider every winter, which is why we recommend sealing them before they become an active leak rather than after.
Get a Crack Assessment →A tired or undersized sump pump is the #1 reason we get emergency calls in Hillside after heavy rain. We install battery backup units so your basement stays dry even if the power goes out mid-storm.
Schedule a Pump Inspection →For Hillside properties fighting grading or drainage issues, an exterior French drain can intercept water before it ever reaches the foundation wall at all. We map your yard's slope and water flow before recommending which approach fits.
Ask About Drain Systems →Older Hillside homes with vented crawl spaces are especially prone to seasonal moisture swings — encapsulation closes that off for good.
Get a Crawl Space Quote →We can phase larger Hillside commercial projects around business hours or tenant schedules so operations aren't disrupted mid-project.

We start with a phone conversation, not a script — enough to know whether this is an emergency dispatch or a scheduled inspection.
We walk the space with you, point out what we find, and explain it in plain language — no jargon, no pressure.
No verbal estimates that change later. What's quoted for your Hillside job is what's invoiced.
Once the repair is done, you get documentation of the work and a written warranty — not just a handshake.
We quote the job in writing after inspecting it in person, so what you agree to on the phone or at your door is what shows up on the final invoice.
A local dispatch model means the technician who answers questions about your Hillside job is the same one who shows up to do it.
Warranty terms are explained before you sign, in plain language, so there's no fine print surprise if you ever need to use it.
Our technicians are paid to diagnose correctly, not to upsell — that changes the advice you actually get on-site.
We document the damage with photos and a written scope your insurance adjuster can actually use, and we'll walk you through the claim process.
Every Hillside job reflects on the next referral, so we treat each one like it's the only advertising that matters.
"Called at 6am with a flooded basement and had a tech at my door by 8. No runaround, no upsell — just fixed it."
"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."
"French drain install took two days like they said it would, not five. Yard was put back together better than before."
"Technician actually explained why the water was coming in instead of just quoting a number. First contractor who's done that for us."
Whether you're in the older, established parts of Hillside or a newer subdivision still settling, our crews have likely already worked on a foundation like yours nearby.
