Wet Basements & Waterproofing
Nothing is more frustrating than dealing with a wet basement. Water damages walls, windows, floors and leads to other moisture-related problems such as mould. A.P. Hurley fixes wet basement problems, as well provides waterproofing solutions on new builds.
If you notice damp or wet basement walls, windows or floors or a musty odour, water may be leaking into your basement. You may notice water or moisture most after heavy rains or with melting snow when excess water pushes through small cracks in your foundation. Foundations can crack over time from seasonal temperature changes, settling or even improper waterproofing during construction. Not only does this compromise your foundation, if left unchecked it will only get worse and lead to moisture-related problems including mould and rot.
Where Wet Basements Come From
- Surface water running down foundation walls
- Groundwater in water saturated soils being pushed into the basement by hydrostatic pressure
- Storm sewer water from the municipal storm sewer system backing up into the home’s basement.
- Sanitary sewer water from a combined municipal storm/sanitary sewer system backing up into the home’s drain system.
