Lasting Protection from Water Damage
If your basement in Edgemont, PA deals with humidity on a regular basis, it’s important to take steps to keep it dry. Moisture in the basement means the ground around your foundation is saturated, placing undue pressure on the basement walls. This pressure can lead to cracks and more significant water infiltration over time. Beyond foundation issues, excess moisture makes it harder to cool your home, encourages mold and mildew growth, invites dust mites, and can harm paint, wallpaper, and even furniture.
Signs You Have Basement Water Issues
If your basement floods, even if it's rare, our waterproofing services are essential. However, other signs of moisture problems include dampness and a musty smell, as well as water stains and efflorescence. The presence of mold, mildew, standing water, cracked concrete, or rotted wood are all serious indications that it's time to address the issue before it worsens.
Standing Water
Standing water that is not due to a plumbing leak is caused by water accumulation near the foundation that is seeping into the basement through cracks, joints, window wells, porous concrete, and so forth.
Water Stains
Water stains can appear on basement walls, floors, and ceilings and are an indication that water is getting in through sweating or due to problems with either the foundation or the home’s drainage system.
Cracking Concrete
Concrete that is cracked or crumbling suggests that water is getting into the basement, and these imperfections are often caused by hydrostatic pressure that forces the water through the concrete and into the basements.
Mold and Mildew
Basements are often the perfect breeding ground for mold because mold spores grow fast in environments that are hot, dark, and moist. Mold can cause serious damage to various aspects of your home and is also a serious health risk.
Efflorescence
When water in your basement evaporates, it leaves behind minerals. These minerals create chalky texture on walls that is referred to as efflorescence, which is easy to clean but which will continue coming back without waterproofing.
Rotted Wood
Rotted wood in a basement is quite serious as it means that the water damage is extensive and has been occurring for some time. As part of the waterproofing process, it is necessary to remove and replace all rotted wood.
