Waterproofing is the art of using sealants, installation of sump pumps, and drains to prevent water from entering your home. This technique should be employed when
you see:
~ A high water table
~ Basement leaks
~ Cracked walls
~ Decay in walls
~ Efflorescence on basement walls
~ Ground saturation
~ Ground water builds in the soil
~ Hydrostatic pressure is observed in walls
~ Moisture related damages
~ Mold in walls
~ Peeling paint
~ Structural damage
~ Water seepage in crawl spaces
~ Water, snow, and/or heavy rain build up inside window wells
~ Weeping tile that is blocked or damaged
