Give us a call before the problem spreads upstairs, and we’ll take care of your basement’s demands with our interior waterproofing process.
You may not realize it, but even in the driest of locations, there is water found inside the ground. The water is absorbed into the earth during heavy rains and will sit there dormant until disturbed in one circumstance or another. In relation to your home, hydrostatic pressure from below pulls the surplus water into your basement from underneath the floor and generates leaks anywhere possible for it to escape. This is why it is important to have an interior waterproofing system installed as the reason you are experiencing excess moisture is most likely linked to hydrostatic pressure.
The interior waterproofing system is made up of a few parts that work together to expel excess water from your home. The drainage pipe system is the best method to keep excess water out of your basement. The perimeter of the basement floor is dug up forming a trench that will accommodate the drainage pipe. Any water that penetrates the exterior wall drains into the trench, runs down to the drainage pipes below, and is drained out to a central basement drain or through a sump pump system that expels the water. In order for the water to be divert to the drainage pip, the walls are wrapped with a dimpled drainage membrane where water can travel through.
