Often times, the water that percolates down through the soil surrounding a home's foundation, will not immediately pose a problem to the foundation walls or the basements concrete slab.
Over time, however, the damaging effects can quietly build unnoticed and travel through capillary action occurring below grade level. The water travels toward the low points of the home. Enough hydrostatic pressure is produced to permeate the slab and or the walls or even the soil in a cellar or boiler room and humidity levels begin to increase.
"No problem" you might say. I'll buy a dehumidifier. Now you begin to pay to run the unit and it is drawing the water through the concrete walls and floor faster than it was before.
Installing a professional Basement Waterproofing System is not only a necessary healthful home improvement it is a value added improvement to your home.
