Basement Water Infiltration Problems?
When you experience a flooded basement, water on the floor is all the proof you need to know you have a serious problem, but by that time it’s usually too late to have avoided the problem.
What is less evident of a wet basement problem are signs of water infiltration through the joint between the foundation wall and the footing, smelly and humid basements, deteriorating walls, a damp feeling, discoloring of the baseboards and wall finishing, as well as many other telltale signs that you have a problematic basement.
Contacting a basement waterproofing professional company to assess the problem, receiving a full professional inspection and a written proposal on what it would cost to fix the problem, is the only way to go.
But why waterproof your basement in the first place? Simple, for the health, safety and comfort of your family. And if you want to finish your basement, make sure to waterproof first – it will only cost more if you don’t.
Wet basements cause mold and lead to respiratory problems, as well as bad smell and humidity, and if not controlled can become extremely uncomfortable. Humidity causes damage to material things and in effect, makes your basement unbearable.
Also, when you plan to sell your house, you will have to lower your price to a potential buyer or fix the problem to make the sale – sooner or later, it will cost you. Give Basement Systems Quebec a call and have us take care of your waterproofing problems for you.
