Basement Waterproofing

Additional Details

Basement waterproofing refers to techniques used to prevent water from entering the basement of a house, shopping malls, and commercial buildings. Waterproofing is needed anytime a structure is built at ground level or below ground. Waterproofing and drainage considerations are especially needed in cases where ground water is likely to build up in the soil and raise the water table. This higher water table causes hydrostatic pressure to be exerted underneath basement floors and against basement walls.
