Things you need to know about waterproofing

Most of the people who buy a new house for themselves are not concerned about their basement. People should be aware of waterproofing their basement, which is essentially the foundation of the building. When the foundation is faulty, your house will be prone to several hazards. Of late, most of the builders are conscious and they usually waterproof their walls. It is imperative that the basements should be waterproofed during the initial stages of construction pattern.  The industrial development seems to have widened the mindset of the builders who are alert and believe in the fact that, ‘prevention is better than cure’.

Making the basement walls water resistant will help you in the long run. This will prevent leakages posing a threat to the building. Waterproofing generally involves coating and painting the exterior walls. Waterproofing is not only limited to exterior surface of your building. One of the famous interior waterproofing options is the installation of drainage and sewage system with functioning water pumps. When you have your basement waterproofed, it is imperative that you check it once in a while. With years progressing, wear and tear may happen and if it is not checked properly, further damages are caused to your building. Hence it is essentially to act as fast as possible.

In case of any leakages, molds might grow, causing bad odor and several health hazards. A damp environment will lead to pest development. Those who suffer from asthma and breathing problems will have difficult time breathing.

A house owner should understand the fact that no basement is waterproofed for eternity. So, one should be aware how long the waterproof will hold and get it redone.  When the owner doesn’t check properly, then cracks may develop and widen with due course of time. With cracks widening, water will seep through, because of which the basement of your building is weakened.

Firstly, the house owner should keep checking the basement for any sign of gaps or cracks through with water can leak through. Sometimes, DIY can help you fix the problem, but it may not hold for a long time. A suitable waterproof compound from the local hardware store will seal the deal for the time being. But, it is ideal to hire a professional contractor to help you with the issue.  When you plan to hire a contractor, make sure you gather information about some of the best services available in Toronto. Compare the rough estimates of the services and choose a service that is cost-effective and that fits your budget.

A foundation crack shouldn’t worry you no longer – Hire us and we will rectify the problem

 Coming home from a tiring day at work is a blissful feeling to every man and woman. Our home is something precious to all of us as it gives us the notion that we are all safe under one roof. Be it a rented or own house, it will give you the sense of satisfaction. But, we should take all the necessary steps to protect our house from several hazards. With an unpredictable weather, it is quite common to see cracks developing in the house’s foundation. It is, definitely a major concern for every house owner as your basement is shaken.

However, small cracks aren’t as alarming as the bigger ones. If you see a crack that is as large as an quarter inch or more, make you get it check immediately by a professional. It is equally important to stop the cracks from spreading, as it will impose serious damage to your house. If the cracks are unattended, water can seep through them and weaken the foundation walls.

Step 1 : Inspection

Right from the weather and earthquake, there are several reasons to see a crack in the foundation. Firstly, an owner needs to hire a contractor or a structural engineer to deeply inspect the cracks at their house. It is easier and cheaper to attend to the cracks before they grow bigger. Even though, we will be able to spot the cracks with our eyes, a report from a professional would help us solve the issue. Some of the common reasons for cracks to appear are due to the settling of the soil and development of excessive moisture.

Step 2 : Preparing for crack repair

When you spot a crack on your foundation, clear the loose materials with the help of a brush or a screw driver. As mentioned before, small cracks can be attended easily with the help of several DIY methods. All you need to do is to widen the crack using a hammer and a chisel to undercut the crack edges. Now, wet the crack surface with water and pat the area dry with any cloth.

Step 3 : Repairing the cracks

When it comes to DIY methods, an owner can purchase several patching compounds which can be applied on using a paintbrush. For example, use the cement mixture and pack the crack without any gaps. Level it with a towel and repeat the process in circular motion again after an hour.

How to repair larger cracks?

An evaluation report is extremely important in such cases as it would have details about the cause of the crack. Make sure the contractor what the structural engineer has ordered him to do. For better results, hire Dry Shield Water Solutions Corp in Canada, who has 25 years of experience in basement repair.
