Water proofing

The importance of waterproofing

Water damage can occur for various reasons, including heavy rainfall, plumbing leaks, or inadequate drainage systems. Basements and crawlspaces are particularly susceptible to water intrusion because they are below ground level. Moisture can seep through cracks in the foundation, gaps in windows or doors, or even rise through the ground.

Without proper waterproofing, this excess moisture can lead to numerous problems. It can weaken the foundation, causing cracks and compromising the structural integrity of your property. The constant exposure to moisture can also create an ideal environment for mold growth, which can damage building materials and pose risks to occupants.
