Statewide Basement Waterproofing Systems and Avoiding Mold Risks & Mycotoxins

Mold Hazards, Wet Basement Waterproofing System

Keeping Your Home above Water

Basement waterproofing systems are designed to alleviate hydrostatic pressure and direct water outside the home and protect the interior space. Indoor air quality is also enhanced when humidity levels and potential for mold growth is diminished by getting rid of the water.
After all, water, organic material, and heat can produce alot of mold colonies quickly. The mold colonies are then spreading by eating the cellulose, organic matter, such as paper faced gypsum or sheetrock, and other organic materials that we build homes with and stuff in our storage nooks and basements. Not to mention the many porous furniture materials, along with wood and cloth. Mold absolutely loves this stuff.

Water damaged sheetrock feeds alot of mold colonies and produces billions of spores

When people are around toxic mold they are exposed to airborne mycotoxins by breathing. These mycotoxins end up in the lungs and cause breathing problems and other severe symptoms. Mycotoxins are toxins produced by certain species of mold. These mycotoxins are some of the most toxic substances in existence. To make matters more difficult, mycotoxins (.01 microns) are smaller than mold spores and spores are roughly 1 to 10 microns, and invisible to the naked eye. By comparison, a human hair is 100 microns.

When one considers the risks of living in the home after a water event like flooding or plumbing leak or break, or hydrostatic pressure forcing the foundation walls of the basement to leak water into the building envelope through capillary action, it is smart to call a professional waterproofing and mold removal, remediation company and leave the home until the water and mold have been properly remediated.

Basement Waterproofing 101; Winter Protection 

Basement waterproofing in the cold,harsh New York and Connecticut winter weather is crucial when contending with water damage from thawing snows, powerful rain, and flooding that can be downright deadly.

Basement Waterproofing tips from Statewide Basement Systems can be put into practice to avoid the need for basement waterproofing if you are fortunate, or perhaps to stem the tide a bit, or require Water Damage Restoration Services.

1. It is very important to avoid basement flooding  or water damage from occurring due to poorly installed gutter systems.

2. Ensure the leader pipes extending downward along the corners of the home are pointed away from the foundation. This can sometimes lead to increased water around the foundation walls, increasing hydrostatic pressure.  

3. Look around the house. If your basement is flooding, cinder block walls are leaking, or poured foundation walls are showing signs of dampness, check this out.
Inspect the grading of soil around perimeter of foundation and check for slope. Grade away from the home to avoid water traveling toward the foundation and causing basement water intrusions, flooding, and the need for professional water damage restoration services.

If you have a basement in need of Basement Waterproofing, Call Statewide Basement Systems 845 635 3040, or visit us online. Statewide Basement Systems serves New York and Connecticut and would be glad to help protect your home from basement flooding.

Basement Waterproofing: Beating the Water Damage

Waterproofing Basement Before Water Damage Occurs

There are few things more frustrating than cleaning up after a water event and living with the aftermath of damp, moldy, and smelly conditions. One way to avoid this frustration is to protect your home and one of your biggest investments prior to a water event.

Securing your property against the damaging effects of water intrusion is of the utmost importance. Protection from water with an SBS Home Waterproofing System is a proven method of effectively securing your home or office building from the damaging effects of water intrusion.

Basement Waterproofing & Crawlspace Encapsulation

This is a safe and cost-effective method that will provide a proper water mitigation system that will keep the property dry in the snow thaws and rainstorms that wreak havoc on so many homes.

If you notice a white, powdery substance on the walls or floors of your foundation, you should have a professional waterproofing company inspect the situation. This is one of the signs of water intrusion through cement. Efflorescence is caused by the acidity contained in the water that is making its way through the foundation by way of hydrostatic pressure. This pressure is exerted by the build up of pressure around the foundation walls and cement floor slab when the surrounding earth has been saturated with water and can longer percolate the ground water efficiently. The resulting hydrostatic pressure  forces the groundwater through cracks and fissures , through the cement walls, mortar joints, etc. and produces this crystallized, sometimes chalky substance on the surface of the basement wall and/or floor.

Colors can vary based on various conditions and elements present at your property.

The relief valve effect is provided by Statewide Basement Systems Home Waterproofing System by way of a 4" conduit which allows for groundwater to be navigated away, thus releasing the hydrostatic pressure from the walls and floor, thus reducing this damaging effects of water intrusion into the home as well as to the structural integrity of your home. 

It is amazing to see how great the pressure can be given particular conditions, such as type of soil, fill, etc. surrounding the home.

If you have been faced with a water damage, mold, water intrusion event or related challenge, and would like our help, Call SBS at 845 635 3040. We look forward to serving you.
