Mold on Basement Walls
Mold on basement walls indicates critical and deep-rooted problems. These conditions demand immediate attention and remedial actions as they can affect your health. Creeping water, cracks, efflorescence and mold signify that you need to take action to prevent further water or moisture damage. They indicate that you should utilize the right waterproofing methods to avoid the development of mold on the foundation walls.
Dampness or moisture in a home or building encourages organic growth and efflorescence. These factors must be considered seriously as they can pose great threats to your health and investment. Get rid of water-related problems to enjoy a clean, dry, and healthy living environment.
Mold - An Indication of Foundation Issues
Mold on basement walls indicate nothing but moisture and water penetration. French drains and sump pumps don't have the right elements to resolve these issues effectively. Though they drive water away from your home or building, these systems cannot offer long-lasting results to your property. In such situations, the best approach is to get the floor and walls properly waterproofed and sealed.
Our sealants offer the best results as they penetrate the minutest gaps, joints, and openings. However, every waterproofing firm doesn't utilize such effective sealing solutions, so make sure to inquire. Learn about the procedures, warranties and guarantees and methods employed by a waterproofing company before engaging its services.
What Will Help?
An exclusively formulated sealant is the ultimate necessity of an effective waterproofing method. This is the best material that can permeate all gaps, voids, and holes and strengthen the surface. We use polymer-based sealants that penetrate deep into the concretes pores, stopping water, moisture and also radon from entering the basement. Even under constant hydrostatic water pressure our coating will not fail.
What Won't Help?
Methods involving ineffective elements, including epoxy and concrete paints that your local hardware stores may sell, do not offer long-lasting results. Since paint cannot maintain a permanent bond with cinderblock, stone, or concrete, it is not able to resist against the pressure created by creeping water. On the other hand, epoxy can crack quite easily.
