Your Basement Crawl Space
Do you have a crawl space in the basement? If so, this area gives a prime window into the current health of your basement. This is because there are no cosmetic layers of paint or decorations in the crawl space. So if cracks, wet spots or the smell of moisture comes from the crawl space, you need to have these issues taken care of.
Yard Drainage
There are different causes of foundation issues. Some of these stem from how the house was originally built. However, other issues are connected to how moisture moves around the property. Moisture may lead to soil erosion, which also leads to a shift in weight displacement of the house. These shifts might cause your foundation to crack. But what can you do to control yard drainage? Beyond some landscaping changes, the installation of sump pump helps draw out moisture and pump it elsewhere. What if you live in a high risk area or suffer common power outages? Back up battery packs can address this concern.
Foundation Repairs
Foundation repairs vary in size and scope. Smaller crack repairs will fill in cracks both inside the basement and on the outside of the house. This prevents further growth of the crack while preventing moisture from seeping into the house.
Now, if the problem is more significant and the foundation has started to shift, you may need a service like wall bracing or foundation underpinning. Whatever the problem is, ULB-Dry Waterproofing will inspect your home and inform you of what needs to be done.
Waterproofing the Basement
There are many different waterproofing options based on the cause of moisture in the basement. An exterior waterproofing membrane provides a secondary layer of protection. Drains placed in window wells and both interior/exterior drains installed around the house provide drainage options as well. All of these help with waterproofing your basement.
