Exterior Waterproofing System
Exterior waterproofing requires excavation to the footing or bottom of the property’s foundation.
If you are a homeowner who is concerned about water damage around your foundation, basement, or exterior walls or if you have recently had a flood, you must act quickly. Pure Service Pro provides exterior waterproofing services and waterproofing of basement exterior walls to maintain your home’s structural integrity. Water damage around a building’s foundation or in a basement in New Jersey requires an assessment from professionals to establish what type of external waterproofing service is required.
Why Waterproofing is Necessary?
Your basements can suffer water damage in severe circumstances, which will promote mold and other harmful scenarios that will eventually compromise the structural integrity of a building. Over time, floods and stormwater runoff degrade cement foundations. If left untreated, your foundation will develop cracks that allow water to flow through. Resulting in water damage in your basements and around exterior walls.
Waterproofing the exterior of a foundation completely eliminates water and moisture penetration through the walls into a basement. For a basement to be waterproofed with no chance of water penetrating the exterior walls, it needs to have protection from sub-surface water for all of the below-grade walls. All of this protection must span from grade level down to the foundation footing or a depth deeper than the basement floor.
Exterior waterproofing prevents water from entering foundation walls; therefore, preventing the wicking and molding of building materials.
Benefits of Exterior and Basement Waterproofing
External waterproofing is the act of sealing and protecting a building’s foundation walls from water penetration by adding a waterproof membrane and other solutions to the outside of the foundation walls. These are a few benefits of exterior waterproofing:
- Maintains a building’s structural integrity
- Increases the lifespan of the building
- Prevents further foundation or basement deterioration
- Prevents growth of toxic mold and mildew due to damp conditions
- Protects walls paints, insulations, pipes, and other damages due to moisture
- Improves indoor air quality
- Increase your property’s value
Prior to the 1980s much of the original exterior waterproofing was actually damp-proofing using a degradable asphalt-based covering. However today, advanced polymer products will completely waterproof an exterior foundation wall. Such polymer materials have a half-life extending to thousands of years, which makes them ideal for a long-term exterior waterproofing solution. This is in contrast to asphalt and tar-based compounds that are affected by soil pH and break down after 10-20 years, or earlier, thus making that type of waterproofing ineffective over time.
