Basement Waterproofing
The best way to waterproof your basement will differ from other homes in the area. If your house is at greater risk, an exterior waterproofing membrane might be the best way to protect your home. Structural shifts can work as well, including drainage systems for your window wells. If the window wells are problematic for your house, egress window installation might be the best solution. Interior and exterior drainage systems or new tiles will improve water flow while additional protective coatings on the wall of your basements will assist in preventing moisture from developing
Foundation Repairs
Whether there is a crack in the cement foundation of your crawl space or you’ve identified other damaged areas in the basement itself, crack repairs helps add more structural integrity to the building while preventing moisture from finding its way inside. Now, if your foundation has shifted, wall bracing and foundation underpinning might be the way to go. Ultimately, it depends on your property and what ULB-Dry Waterproofing finds to be the problem.
Crawl Space Problems
If your house is like many others in the region, it has a crawl space under the stairs leading to your basement. The crawl space actually demonstrates signs of foundation problems and water issues sooner than other areas of the basement due to its location and because it doesn’t have paint or other decorative attributes. During your property inspection, ULB-Dry Waterproofing will look through the crawl space. If cracks are identified or water exists, the necessary repairs will be made.
Yard Drainage
A leading problem with the development of basement cracks and shifts in the foundation is how moisture from the outside comes in contact with your home. The best way to be proactive about this is to prevent moisture from forming up around the house in general. Sump pumps and battery back up systems will remove moisture form the surrounding soil and push it to another area of the property.
