Editorial Standards

HRC Waterproofing is a family-owned firm based at 116-14 142nd Street in Jamaica, Queens, that says it has worked since 1998. Its website names the exterior membranes it applies, including Polyguard 650, Tremco Watchdog and Henry Blueskin WP200, and describes interior French drains, sump pumps with battery backup, epoxy and polyurethane crack injection, parging and crawl space encapsulation. Google shows it open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It holds 4.9 from 81 Google reviews, read October 21, 2026, and reviewers repeatedly credit Raymond for walking the property and explaining the options. It serves the five boroughs plus Nassau and Westchester. The site lists no licence number or warranty length, so ask for both before signing.

Editorial Review

Our Take on HRC Waterproofing

HRC Waterproofing earns its place on strong, consistent Google reviews and a website that names its exterior membranes and drainage methods. The missing licence number, warranty length and named team are the gaps to close with a phone call. For a Queens or Brooklyn basement that keeps flooding, it is a credible first quote.

What We Like

  • Names its exterior membranes: Polyguard 650, Tremco Watchdog and Henry Blueskin WP200
  • Open 24 hours, seven days a week, per Google and the contact page
  • Full drainage scope: interior French drains, sump pumps with battery backup, crack injection, parging
  • Reviewers credit Raymond with walking the property and explaining options
  • Offers free inspections, financing, transferable warranties and a 6% discount for seniors, veterans and first responders

Things to Consider

  • No contractor licence number is published on the website, so check DCWP before signing
  • Warranty length is not stated, and the team is not named on the site
  • Several location pages, such as Rochester, read as generic templates far from its Queens base

Company Background

About HRC Waterproofing

HRC Waterproofing publishes something most local contractors do not: the product names it uses on exterior foundation walls. Its exterior page lists Polyguard 650 sheet membrane, Tremco Watchdog waterproofing and Henry Blueskin WP200, along with drainage board, French drains and backfill steps. The company works from 116-14 142nd Street in Jamaica, Queens, and says it has operated since 1998 as a family-owned, owner-operated firm.

Services cover interior drain tile and French drain systems, sump pumps with battery backup, epoxy and polyurethane crack injection, exterior excavation and membranes, parging, crawl space encapsulation, site drainage and masonry. The site also lists roofing and renovation work, which reads as a side line rather than the core. It names Queens neighborhoods including Astoria, Flushing, Jamaica, Forest Hills, Bayside, Maspeth and Far Rockaway, and says it also works in Brooklyn, Manhattan, Staten Island, the Bronx, Nassau County and Westchester. The phone is a 516 Long Island number, and Google lists the business as open 24 hours every day.

HRC Waterproofing holds 4.9 from 81 Google reviews, read October 21, 2026. Reviewers keep naming Raymond, sometimes as Ray. One homeowner said the French drain installed around the basement perimeter handled more than 3.5 inches of rain a year and a half later. Another hired the company for two sump pumps and praised the work plan and the price. A third thanked Xavier and Luis for sealing an old basement while two children ran around. Another reviewer hired the team to seal rodent entry points and retile an unfinished basement area. The sample of reviews we read held no complaints, so we cannot point to a recurring problem.

The site says the firm is licensed and insured, offers free inspections and estimates, financing options, a 6% discount for first responders, veterans and seniors, and transferable warranties. It does not publish a licence number, a warranty length or a named team. New York City requires a Home Improvement Contractor licence from the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection for residential work, and New York has no waterproofing-specific state licence, so verify the licence on the nyc.gov DCWP lookup before signing.

It suits Queens and Brooklyn homeowners with basement flooding who want drainage and pump work from a small team. It suits less well anyone who wants a published licence number, named staff or fixed warranty terms up front, or a large commercial contractor. Before booking, ask for the DCWP licence number, the warranty length in writing, the exact membrane and pump models, and who will be on your crew.

HRC Waterproofing FAQs

  • Is HRC Waterproofing licensed in New York City?

    The company says on its website that it is licensed and insured, but it does not publish a licence number. New York City requires a Home Improvement Contractor licence from the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection for residential work, and New York State has no waterproofing-specific licence. Ask HRC Waterproofing for its DCWP number and confirm it on the nyc.gov lookup before you sign anything.

  • Does HRC Waterproofing offer 24 hour emergency service?

    Google and the company's contact page both list HRC Waterproofing as open 24 hours, Monday through Sunday. You can reach it on (516) 983-4309. The site also lists emergency roof repair, and reviewers describe it responding on short notice, but it does not state a guaranteed response time, so ask what to expect when you call.

  • What warranty and financing does HRC Waterproofing offer, and where does it work?

    HRC Waterproofing says its work carries transferable warranties and that financing options are available, plus a 6% discount for first responders, veterans and seniors. It does not publish warranty length, so request it in writing. It works across Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Staten Island and the Bronx, and also in Nassau and Westchester counties, from its base in Jamaica, Queens.

  • Is HRC Waterproofing licensed and insured?

    We checked 0 of 1 credentials against the issuing authority. Verified items carry the date we checked; reported items are what the business told us and we could not independently confirm.

  • What areas does HRC Waterproofing serve?

    New York. Coverage is as the business describes it, cross-checked against where its recent documented work is. Confirm your address before scheduling, particularly at the edge of a service area.

  • Does HRC Waterproofing offer emergency service?

    Yes, the company lists emergency availability. Response time depends on demand, and after a storm every company in the market is stretched.

  • What warranty do they offer?

    Site says its work is warrantied and that warranties are transferable to future buyers; no warranty length is published.. There are usually two warranties on a job: the manufacturer covers materials, the contractor covers workmanship. Get both in writing and check whether the workmanship coverage transfers if you sell.

  • How was this profile built?

    Credentials come from issuing authorities, ratings from the company's Google Business Profile with the date we read them, and the editorial take from our own review of estimates, warranty documents and public feedback. Anything the business told us is labelled as reported.

  • Can a business pay to improve its profile?

    A business can subscribe to manage its own listing details, and it can buy a labelled sponsored placement. Neither changes a ranking position or the editorial assessment on this page.
