Testimonials:

Melanie McElvany

BWN took care of my basement waterproofing concerns completely and at reasonable cost. The work was done quickly and as described. The mess was kept to a minimum despite the concrete work involved. Every worker was courteous and professional. My basement was transformed into comfy living space!

“Basement Waterproofing has done work for us at our Canterbury Woods development. We were so satisfied with the results of their work the first time that we did not hesitate to call on them a second time when we were experiencing water problems in two other units.”– Louis S. Swarthmore , PA
“Of all of the improvements I have made on my home since 1947, the best was getting my basement waterproofed by BWN in 1997. Prior to their work I had water flowing over the basement floor and squirting from the cement block walls. Since the BWN waterproofing I haven’t had a drop of water come into the basement.”– W. W.Wilmington , DE
“For over 18 years I’ve had a problem with water leaking into the basement level of my office building. After having several companies attempt to solve the problem at a large expense, I became very frustrated…I called your company. It’s been almost a year and I have no sign of any leaks!” – Robert P. , Baltimore , MD

 

Your Options in Basement Waterproofing

 The upkeep of your basement is too commonly a debated and heated up topic among property owners, as constant upkeep and potential recurring repairs can be rather expensive. Basement waterproofing is a process that is ruled out to be a requirement, however can be rather advantageous to homeowners. Basement waterproofing options differ from resident to property owner, and contractor to professional, however generally they can conserve you a lot of time, energy and money in basement repairs.

Safeguard Your Investment

Whether you intend on staying in your home for a lifetime or putting your home on the market for resale, waterproofing your basement is a useful and helpful tool for safeguarding the general value of your house. In truth, appropriately waterproofing your basement can enhance the value of your home while adding useful living and storage area.

If water starts to leak into your basement, it can lead to expensive repair works, and damage the resale value of your house-- therefore lessening the value of your house by hundreds of dollars.

Combat Mold

In order for mold to form, it requires a stable, strong source of wetness and temperature level to grow and thrive. Waterproofing your basement will not entirely shield, or get rid of the threat of mold and mildew, considering that the pipes in you basement can still leak or leak and lead to mold. When the drips or leakages are found and repaired rapidly, you're significantly reducing the threat of mold and mildew.

Basement waterproofing will not only shield your basement and prized possessions against property damage, but will shield the total wellness of you and your family. Research has revealed that mold spores can intensify the impacts of asthma and other respiratory troubles, if breathed in. Mold spores can likewise cause extreme topical allergic reactions in some children and adults.

A Scam?

Some waterproofing service providers do a "damproofing" procedure on the foundation or basement walls by spraying a black, tar-like fluid substance on the exterior. Although damproofing is carried out, it is not a sufficient or appropriate waterproofing technique, leaving your basement vulnerable and at risk to outdoors water sources.

Damproofing satisfies the minimum requirements with some building codes, however by describing dampoofing as waterproofing permits some to charge a greater cost for less quality and more affordable work. Damproofing is normally performed by utilizing a wet asphalt option, but proper basement waterproofing combines a liquid rubber that is intended to lock water out of the concrete basement walls and floor, more effectively and successfully with the assistance of installing insulation panels. Basement waterproofing is most effective when carried out on the interior using a water drainage system, dehumidifier, integrated with fixing holes and leaks and utilizing waterproof materials.

When Should I Waterproof?

Some property owners have their basement waterproofed following the finished building of their house, but there are some homeowners that choose to wait to waterproof their basement for one reason or another; whether it be cost, time or money. It is best to waterproof your basement as quickly as the construction of your new home is completed. The longer you decide to wait to have your basement waterproofed, the greater the threat of having water leaking into the walls and floors of your basement, leading to damage.
