Damages caused by water infiltration

When a metal structure is exposed and you experience water infiltration, it can cause rust, corrosion and other structural problems.

Infiltration of water by the foundation wall

The water can enter through the joints between the walls or through the cracks that appear over time.

Crawl space in the ground

A plastic layer is not really a vapor barrier membrane. A membrane specially designed for this is needed.

An open sump pump

A sump pump must be installed in a liner that closes with a tight cover.

Concrete blocks foundations

Concrete block foundations often experience water infiltration after several years. When the soil is wet like this and the walls are wet, it's time to take action.

Wet concrete wall block

A wet concrete wall is a sign that water in the earth is putting pressure on the foundation. The water thus infiltrates through the joints and pores of the concrete.
