Your home is perhaps the largest investment you will ever make. Having a basement that is not waterproofed subjects your investment to insects, mold, wood rot, or foundation deterioration. It’s imperative that you waterproof your basement before it becomes a bigger problem. Connecticut Mold provides professional basement waterproofing in Stamford, Connecticut, and surrounding areas at a reasonable cost.
Crawlspace and Basement Waterproofing Options
Connecticut Mold offers 3 options for waterproofing:
- Vapor barrier installation – Vapor barrier is installed to prevent water vapor from rising and affecting the wood structure of the house.
- Sump pump installation – Water flows and collects into a pit. Then the sump pump pumps the water out of the pit and away from the building.
- French drain installation – Gravel-lined trench that directs groundwater away from the foundation.
