THE POWER OF WATERPROOFING FOR YOUR HOME AND BUSINESS
Waterproofing will prevent water and moisture from entering the building which is a real problem in Saskatchewan because the soil is clay-based and can cause problems for your foundation. The soil is expansive, allows minimal drainage, and absorbs a lot of water. The soil will swell when drenched with water and contract when dry. This movement can cause the foundation wall to crack and eventually leak. If there is standing water around the house’s foundation, it will find the weakest point and seep into your home, causing the common issue we have in Regina: the basement flooding!
Don’t wait until it happens to you to take action!
In both residential and commercial settings, the power of waterproofing lies in its ability to safeguard investments, enhance structural integrity, and create a comfortable and safe environment. Whether it’s waterproofing basements, roofs, foundations, or other critical areas, investing in quality waterproofing solutions is a wise decision for the long-term health of your property. Protect your home and its foundation with the application of a waterproofing membrane. Some homes can also require an exterior dig-out, which involves removing the dirt around the home and repairing, sealing and waterproofing the walls.
WHY WATERPROOFING IS IMPORTANT?
Waterproofing is a crucial aspect of building construction and maintenance for both homes and businesses. It involves applying materials or techniques to prevent water infiltration and moisture-related issues. The power of waterproofing lies in its ability to protect structures from various problems and ensure their longevity. Here are some key reasons why waterproofing is important for your home and business:
Prevents Water Damage
Water infiltration can lead to a range of structural problems, including rotting of wood, deterioration of concrete, and corrosion of metal components. Waterproofing creates a barrier that prevents water from seeping into the building's structure, reducing the risk of damage.
Mold and Mildew Prevention
Excess moisture can create an environment conducive to the growth of mold and mildew. These fungi not only affect indoor air quality but also pose health risks to occupants. Waterproofing measures help keep moisture levels in check, reducing the likelihood of mold and mildew growth.
Extends Building Lifespan
Water damage can significantly shorten the lifespan of a building. By implementing effective waterproofing solutions, you can prolong the life of your property by preventing deterioration and the need for costly repairs.
Protects Interior Spaces
Water infiltration can damage interior finishes, such as paint, wallpaper, and flooring. Waterproofing safeguards these surfaces, maintaining the aesthetic appeal of your property.
