Basement waterproofing includes several factors. At Above All Roofing & Masonry we can identify the cause of the problem and offer you a waterproofing solution. We don’t just bolt up screens and drains and call it a day. Why live with unwanted water in your home or business?
Waterproofing foundations requires a knowledge of interior and exterior foundations. Water volume issues from grade, slop , ledge and downspouts. Stone foundations are built primarily with cement only above grade and on the interior wall joints below grade. Over time the below grade mortar washed out or dries and flakes due to the high water volume over the years.
We repair exterior and interior foundations. Exterior foundation crack repair service with below grade foundation base repairs. Large voids below grade can easily be repaired and cut down the interior water pressure and essentially fix the leak. High amounts of water pressure and the water must be redirected away from the foundation . Redirecting exterior water volume away from your stone or brick foundation can be accomplished with French drains, dry wells, grading and concrete aprons . Interior repairs consist of stone pointing , brick, block or cement repairs. Foundation structural repairs including stone setting, rebuilding bowing and failing walls.
WATERPROOF SEALANT
Waterproof coatings , waterproof sealants and leak repairs. Waterproof coatings weather proof and seals out dampness. Stops basement leaks and cuts radon infiltration, resistant to mold and mildew. Before any form of sealant or structural skin is applied we repair all loose, soft mushy, flakey , old crumbling joints.
Basement waterproofing is about creating a barrier to prevent water from entering . Create a great enough barrier by repairing the foundation and simply water will not enter your basement. Often waterproofing companies shy away from stone or brick foundations due to the amount of work required and not being masons they are not staffed to handle such problems.
At Above All Roofing & Masonry we welcome stone, brick, block and concrete foundations. We are professional masons with generations of basement waterproofing experience. Why simply install interior perimeter drains and leave your foundation falling apart and structurally failing ?
Our team takes utmost caution to design every aspect of our process to increase customer experience and consistently improve our service standards.
