Frequently Asked Questions

What are the signs that my basement needs waterproofing?

Common signs include musty odors, visible mold growth, damp or wet walls, peeling paint, and water pooling on the floor. You may also notice white, powdery residue (efflorescence) on walls, which indicates moisture seepage.

How do I know if my home needs drainage improvements?

Signs that your property may need better drainage include standing water after rain, soggy or muddy areas in your yard, basement leaks, and foundation cracks. If you notice these issues, it’s worth having a professional assessment.

How long does it take for mold to grow in a damp basement?

Mold can start to develop within 24 to 48 hours after moisture enters your basement. If water is left unaddressed, mold colonies can quickly spread, leading to structural damage and potential health issues. That’s why timely waterproofing is essential.

What causes basement leaks?

Basement leaks can result from several factors, including poor drainage, cracks in the foundation, hydrostatic pressure pushing water through walls, or clogged gutters and downspouts. Addressing the root cause is key to effective waterproofing.
