Moisture Loc Services for Commercial Construction
When it comes to commercial construction, builders rightfully focus on materials, schedules, subcontractors, budgets, and all the other variables that need to be coordinated for a successful build.
So, it’s no surprise that the soil on a job site often gets overlooked.
Ignoring unstable soil can undermine even the most perfectly executed project. When soil issues go unaddressed, settlement, cracking, water intrusion, and structural failure can lead to costly repairs. These problems can also cause operational disruptions long after the construction project is completed.
Moisture Loc helps builders avoid risk by evaluating soil conditions early and recommending the right foundation solutions. If problems arise after a project is finished, our team can diagnose the issue and implement targeted repairs to prevent further damage and expense.

Why Builders Choose Moisture Loc?
Moisture Loc has provided specialized waterproofing, drainage, and foundation support services for commercial projects across the Carolinas for nearly four decades. Moisture Loc actually began by serving commercial customers first before moving into the residential arena.
Today, commercial contractors rely on us for our extensive knowledge, technical precision, and ability to step in quickly when moisture issues threaten progress.
A Sister Company of Doggett Concrete
Moisture Loc is proud to be the sister company of Doggett Concrete, one of Charlotte’s most trusted names in concrete work for over sixty years. We’ve grown up alongside one another, solving problems in the same neighborhoods and working with the same Carolina soil for decades.
That connection gives us uncommon insight into how concrete and foundations behave, shift, crack, and settle in this region. When we assess a foundation, the soil, or the need for underpinning, we draw on deep, localized concrete expertise that most waterproofing companies lack.
For builders, this means:
- A more accurate evaluation and solution
- Better long-term performance
- Solutions engineered for Carolina soil behavior
A Valued Member of Any Build Team

Our Commercial Construction Services
Below-Grade Commercial Waterproofing
Water intrusion is one of the most common—and costly—issues affecting commercial foundations. We install high-performance systems designed to protect structures from hydrostatic pressure, soil moisture, and long-term deterioration.
Systems:
- Spray-apply waterproofing membrane
- Drainage protection board
- Pipe and stone, foundation drain system
- Single-wall pipe on grade
- Sump pump installations
- Dehumidifier installations
Pipe & Stone Drainage Systems
Moving water away from your building protects its foundation. We design & install engineered pipe & stone systems suited to Carolina soils. Getting this drainage right the first time is critical because retrofitting a fix is expensive.
A 3-Component System:
- Drains to move water away from the bottom of a foundation
- Wall treatment to prevent moisture from moving through the wall and to route water down to the drains
- Ground surface treatment adjacent to the building to direct surface water away
Cavity Wall Damp Proofing
When a waterproofing membrane is applied to the exterior face of the inner foundation wall, a cavity wall protection barrier is created. The protection barrier prevents moisture from migrating into the building.
Moisture Loc’s cavity wall damp proofing is a great solution to help prevent future moisture or mold issues in your commercial building.
Benefits:
- Prevents moisture penetration
- Protects insulation & interior finishes
- Supports code compliance
- Improves long-term building performance
Helical Piers for Commercial Construction
Poor or shifting soil is common in the Charlotte area, and even well-built structures can settle, crack, or fail without reinforcement. Moisture Loc installs helical piers to stabilize foundations and provide reliable support for new or existing commercial builds.
Applications:
- New commercial foundation support
- Good for additions and expansions
- Slab settlement remediation
- Stabilizing walls and footers
Advantages:
- Immediate load-bearing capability
- Ideal for poor soil conditions
- Installable in tight or restricted areas
