Video on Basement Waterproofing
When it comes to basement waterproofing and wet basement repairs, we offer a number of solutions that are designed for your particular needs. We have been waterproofing basements for nearly 40 years and know that no one solution works best for all problems. Many solutions offered by competitors in the basement waterproofing industry use essentially the same techniques but cut corners by placing the drain system on top of the footing rather than beside it in order to save labor costs and enhance their profits. In the end, this results in an imperfect repair and is a disservice to the homeowner. Some contractors over-sell their materials and brands, when in actuality, the evaluation of the wet basement problem and the technique used for the repair is what provides a sustainable and lasting solution.
Before contacting a basement waterproofing company, three things need to be evaluated:
- Proper terrain correction where the water drains away from the basement foundation.
- Assure the gutters are free of debris and flow in the proper direction.
- Assure down spouts are properly extended and disburse water a minimum of 10 – 15 feet away from the basement foundation wall.
