    So they waterproofed the wall and then drilled holes in it and backfilled with the same crappy clay that caused the cracks. DAMN !!!

      How else do you hold the membrane against the wall?...Glue? You need to drill holes with fasteners, then provide a sealant onto the fasteners - works perfect! Additionally, you will use drain tiles to sump pump or French drain going to daylight or pit

    Ya. The last few step they drill on the wall to install the barrier. This damage the waterproofing they have done. Water will be seeping from those holes

      Super plugs interlock into the membrane where the hole is. No water is getting in those holes. This is standard practice

    Mark Anderson Waterproofing on youtube does this, with some variations. The first several steps are what he does, but he uses 6 mill visqueen over the tar. Then backfills with pea stone gravel. Also he checks the drain tiles to make sure they are in good working order. -- I appreciate that you get the problem on the OUTSIDE where the water first comes in. Stop the problem at its source.

    Why tf would you put soil back in the trench that can over time become compacted, or just hold a bunch of water near the wall pressing on the wall? You’re supposed to backfill with gravel that leaves voids, and run perforated pipe to a storm drain.

      well, if you look closely, you can see that they installed a new perforated pipe along the footer.

    So I have river rock next to my house and get just a little water
    I want to get rid of the rock and put mulch down, but do I put the under payment down? Or no let the rest of the water drain?

    No drain? No filter fabric? Drilling holes in your dimple board? Backfilling with dirt instead of rock? Man, this couldn't be a worse example of what to do. DO NOT FOLLOW THIS VIDEO. Watch someone who does all of the above.
