Guaranteed Waterproofing Solutions With A Newton Specialist Basement Contractor (NSBC)

Newton Specialist Basement Waterproofing Contractors are an elite group of professional basement waterproofing contractors who work in partnership with John Newton to provide the specifier and their clients with the highest quality products, design and installation available in all aspects of domestic and commercial basement waterproofing.

The NSBC scheme was implemented in 2003 as a response to poor and worthless contractor schemes infiltrating our industry which was resulting in clients losing faith that the waterproofing contractor was able to deliver the dry basement they required. All members of the scheme adhere to very strict membership criteria and they are required to demonstrate quality workmanship resulting in a meaningful scheme where all members provide a level superior technical excellence unsurpassed within the industry.
