Brian Seitz learned about the building industry at the knees of his father, who owned and operated Seitz Bros Exterminating located in northeastern PA. Brian who worked along side father was exposed to hundreds of Northeastern Pennsylvania foundations, where he repeatedly encountered desperate homeowners dealing with defective crawl spaces and basements.

After excelling 10+ years in the pest control industry, in 2005 Brian Seitz founded Seitz Bros. Waterproofing to provide Basement and Craw space waterproofing services for new and existing homes. Brian has been able to make a difference in the habitat of crawl spaces and basements, and better educate the public about the serious repercussions of moisture in those spaces. Quite simply, he paved the way for healthier home foundations across Pennsylvania.
Brian with the help of Thomas McArdle (manager) has taken Seitz Bros Waterproofing to a place of domination in Pennsylvania for crawl space and basement treatment by providing the highest-quality, most technologically-advanced products and services in the industry. Brian and Thomass expertise in home construction, building products, foundations, waterproofing, encapsulation and structural repair has designated them true professionals who brings a focused, intelligent approach to each job Seitz Bros. performs.

1. Wet Areas

Every home has areas that are meant to be wet. Wetfix Waterproofing services ensure that your wet areas don't intrude

into the dry areas of your home. Wetfix Waterproofing stops water leaks, overflows, and moisture problems from room perimeter to waste area.

Shower Tray Full Shower Walls - These are only required when water resistant sheeting is not already present. Shower Hob - We install shower hobs for enclosed showers. Hebel Shower hobs that are 50mm high and 100 mm wide are standard, however specially ordered hob sizes are also available. Waterstop Angle - For showers that have a hobless design, we install a 47mm x 47mm plastic waterstop angle bedded up to and covered over by your shower screen. Bath Flashings - These seal all joints at wall/bath edges and floor/bath edges as well as sheet joints on the bath itself. Perimeter Flashings (wall/floor joint) - A reinforcing fabric is laid over the joint and coated with membrane up to 100mm each side of the joint. Full Floor Areas - Wetfix waterproofs full floor areas by turning down into the waste for slab on ground construction and turned upon to walls as in perimeter flashings. Seal-A-Waste - This takes care of seepage problems around waste areas and is suitable for above ground construction floor areas that are constructed with either timber or FC Sheet (Fibre Cement). Angle At Door - This provides a perimeter flashing at floor level openings. These are usually aluminium and can be 12mm or more in heigh

We coat your tiled concrete balcony with a suitable waterproofing membrane, turning edges up onto walls and down into drains. If your balcony is constructed with Fibre Cement Sheeting, we use elasto-flex bandage for maximum strength and flexibility over the joints, turning the membrane over the edge, up onto the wall or floor joint, and into any waste outlets. See our article regarding balconies constructed using C.F.C Sheeting for more details.

3. Planter Boxes We install a high quality, waterproofing membrane over surfaces to prevent water leaking from your planter box. If provided, well turn the waterproofing membrane into drainage outlet pipes and all internal corners will be covered in preparation. We protect your surfaces with corflute protection board

4. Rooftops Podiums Our premium grade rooftop membrane weathers the severest of environmental conditions. As well as a superior waterproofing solution for leaks caused by rain and storms, it is rugged enough to endure permanent water immersion and tolerate harsh UV conditions. Each rooftop has individual requirements. Contact Wetfix with yours and we'll put together a proposal to suit.

5. Retaining Wall Preparation required includes filling perps (mortar joints) and having core filling completed. We coat vertical surfaces with a latex rubber membrane that can either be rolled on or sprayed for larger areas. The membrane is turned onto the footing, which is coated with a cementitious crystalline growth product for extra strength at this crucial point. Finally, we protect the membrane with corflute protection board.
Our unique system uses a combination of materials and applications that is also extremely successful in preventing moisture penetration into basements.

6. Pond Water Feature Wetfix creates custom solutions for your pond or water feature to both control leaks and meet your aesthetic requirements. The membrane choice and method of installation depends on the substrate in use, the aesthetic requirements, and the role your pond plays in your landscape (e.g. will you keep fish in your pond?). 7. Miscellaneous Areas If it can be made water tight, Wetfix will find a way to do it. From the problems mentioned above to box gutters, awnings, post tops... just about any area that has an issue with water penetration we can treat it
