Basement Waterproofing Epoxy
What is the best way to waterproof my basement? OR reputable companies?
I have just had an eye opening experience. A waterproofing company came out and expected my basement for some tie rods rusting and a couple of small cracks. Turns out I have a couple of big cracks and water sitting in the base of my poured concrete walls. I understood everything the inspector was saying, but the price was outrageous. $15,000. They’re a national company and very reputable, but they’re trying to sell me a system that is “theirs”(it is patented by them). I’m just wondering if anyone else has had this type of problem, what they did to solve the problem and do I really need to dig up my entire foundation. The simple solution of patching with epoxy puddy is just that, simple and not long lasting. Help, this is serious!!!
as for the cracks,you can inject with a polymer.just cut along the crack with a dimond blade and then inject the product.as for water sitting at the base of you poured foundation walls,im not sure there is a easy,or for that matter cheap, fixyou may have to dig up the soil around your foundation walls and use a waterproofing paint on them and then add some 3/4 stone to aid in drainage.again any cracks can be taken care of at this time.good luck
