What is Basement Waterproofing: New Jersey Experts Explain!
With any construction project, an essential task must be basement waterproofing. New Jersey experts are here to explain what it is and why it’s important.
(firmenpresse) - When undertaking a new construction project, most of us want to understand everything that’s going on. But even with smaller builds, staying on top of everything can be a daunting task. However, if there’s one aspect of your project that you’ll definitely want to keep an eye on, it’s the basement. To ensure that your home or business is safe and usable, you’ll need to get an expert who knows the ins and outs of basement waterproofing.
It’s an easy oversight but what might seem to be a small patch of dampness or a little trickle could be an indication of a much larger problem. Moisture in the lower levels of your building can lead to costly damage and repair work; it might not look like much but mold or dampness is a serious problem. The good news is that with expert basement waterproofing you can keep your space dry and safe for the foreseeable future.
Causes of moisture
The best way to prevent a problem is to understand the cause of it in the first place. Knowing how moisture can get into a home is a great place to start when it comes to basement waterproofing. Unfortunately, due to their close proximity to the damp earth, subterranean spaces are prone to wetness. Here are some of the most common causes of dampness in these parts of construction.
Cracks
An obvious but serious problem is cracks in the floors and walls. They can particularly develop around doors and windows, creating the perfect entry point for water.
Poor drainage systems
Without effective drainage, groundwater will have nowhere to go except into your home’s foundations. This is one of the most common causes of dampness.
Poorly installed gutters
Gutters can be a solution to built-up water, but if they’re not installed properly or clog up, they won’t be doing their job.
Types of basement waterproofing methods
Interior protection
There are several forms of waterproofing that can be done from the inside and they tend to be the simplest and more affordable options. Sealing any cracks or gaps with sealant prevents moisture from entering the space – but bear in mind that this won’t address the cause of the water leakage, so it could be a problem later on.
Exterior Protection
This method takes more effort but it’s worth it. Since the problem comes from outside the building, the best protection will be applied to the exterior as well. This involves applying a waterproof sealant to the outside walls, and should also include an effective drainage system that directs water away from your building. It can take time but it’s essential if you want to keep your property safe and dry.
No matter the size of your building, it’s essential that you find a reputable expert in basement waterproofing to ensure your property remains dry and usable for years to come. It will mean one less thing to worry about in the future.
