You’ve got dampness or running water in or under your home.
Your house has a big job: to keep the weather out. When that isn’t happening, all kinds of problems arise.
Of course, there’s the structural damage; water can do some serious harm in a hurry. Ruining floors, warping doors and windows, bubbling drywall, making your carpet soggy and disgusting.
But what’s less known is what happens next. That is, the water begins to evaporate into the air causing high humidity. High interior humidity causes a whole different set of problems.
First, high humidity dramatically raises the cost of heating and cooling your home (humid air takes more energy to warm and cool). Also, as it rises through the house and into the attic it condenses (turns back into drops) and does damage up there - to your roof, in particular.
But what’s much worse than damage to your building is that high interior humidity makes your home a perfect environment for dust mites and mold growth, both of which can cause serious health problems for many people. To learn more about that, click on those links.
What to do about it
If you’ve got water inside, whether it’s just an always-damp cement wall or a gusher during rainstorms, it’s damaging your home and it’s got to be fixed.
Fortunately, Waterproofing Inc. has the technology and experience to seal your home once and for all.
In some cases, it just takes filling the cracks (and the cavities in the earth behind the well) with our professional-grade two-part epoxy.
In other cases, it takes a little more muscle – taking up parts of the floor and installing drains or sump pump systems.
And sometimes there’s some work to do outside the home, fixing the grading or installing drainage systems that stop the water before it reaches your basement wall.
Whatever the challenge, Waterproofing Inc. has the expertise and experience to get the job done quickly, done right, and with a minimum of disruption to your family.
Every job, no matter how big or how small, starts with our FREE Home Safety Test. We’ll come out to your home – at no cost – and test for mold, dust mites, and inspect for signs of water infiltration.
If we find a problem, we’ll let you know what it takes to fix it and schedule a time to get it done. Of course, there’s no obligation and no cost involved.
Get started by filling out the yellow form to the right and we’ll be in touch.
