What to know about Basement waterproofing
Basement waterproofing is the work of keeping water and dampness out of the lowest level of a house, whether it shows up as a puddle after the spring thaw, a damp band along the bottom of a wall or a musty smell that never quite leaves. Below grade, foundation walls and floor slabs sit against soil that stays wet for much of the year, and concrete and concrete block are porous enough to let moisture through when nothing stops it. A good waterproofing contractor looks at the whole picture: the ground around the house, the foundation itself, the drainage at the base of the footing and the air inside the basement.

How to choose waterproofing contractors in Moose Jaw
- Choose a contractor who finds the source of the water before recommending a fix, whether that's grading, eavestroughs, cracks or drainage.
- Ask them to explain the difference between interior and exterior waterproofing for your home, and why they recommend one.
- For foundation cracks that are wide, growing or uneven, ask whether a structural engineer should assess them first.
- For mould, asbestos or radon, hire professionals qualified for that specific work, and don't disturb suspect materials yourself.
- Get a written quote that lists excavation, membranes, weeping tile, sump pumps and restoration of landscaping or finishes.
