Family-owned and operating since 2010, AKME Waterproofing & Sealants is based in Duluth, Georgia, and serves homeowners throughout the greater Metro Atlanta region. The company was founded by Steve Terjung, who began working in the waterproofing industry in 2004 and built the firm around a philosophy of thorough, honest assessment and solutions sized to what each problem actually requires, without upselling beyond necessity.
Core services include basement waterproofing, crawlspace encapsulation, foundation stabilization, and interior drainage system installation. AKME approaches each project with a customized solution rather than a one-size-fits-all fix, and the firm handles both existing home repair situations and new construction projects across the Atlanta metropolitan area.
The company holds several third-party recognitions, including Angi’s Super Service Award (2023), a Fortress Platinum Contractor badge (2023), Best of Gwinnett (2023), and accreditation from the Better Business Bureau. AKME also maintains high ratings on Google, Yelp, and Angi’s List, reflecting consistent customer satisfaction across the region it serves.
Steve Terjung is quoted on the site describing the company’s standard as: fix the issue properly and “not band-aid it, nor sell more than what’s necessary to solve it.” This no-upsell commitment is a central element of how AKME distinguishes itself in a market where homeowners may encounter contractors recommending broader scopes than problems warrant.
Free home estimates are available for Atlanta-area homeowners evaluating basement or crawlspace concerns. The business mailing address is P.O. Box 3242, Duluth, GA 30096. Operating hours are Monday through Saturday, 8 AM to 6 PM. The firm can be reached by phone at 404-232-5680.
