homebuyers are seeing basements as a new level of luxury living. A
place for home theaters, guest suites, home offices and more. It's
the kind of space they're willing to pay more for - which can
increase the profitability of every new home you build. But for
basements to offer luxury living space, they must first be reliably
dry.Which is why you need the

The Damp
Proofing Approach
|
The
Waterproofing Advantage
|
The typical method of damp proofing
involves applying a layer of unmodified asphalt that's only 10
mils thick when cured. (Historically, this is material wasn't
even created to protect basements or even repel water. In fact,
it's a type of primer to prepare road surfaces and other
materials. Damp proofing degrades quickly underground, becomes
brittle and shatters at low temperatures. So even thicker
applications would yield little, if any, improvement.
This unmodified asphalt won't span foundation settling cracks,
nor will it stop water flow under hydrostatic pressure - which
both occur naturally underground. As a result, damp roofing only
delays water penetration instead of providing a long-term
preventive shield against it. |
Polymer-enhanced waterproofing
products - like TUFF-N-DRI
This membrane spans and seals foundation settling cracks, and
even bocks out water under hydrostatic pressure. Plus, the
membrane remains elastic at low temperatures for reliable
performance, season after season.
What's more, WATCHDOG WATERPROOFING offers different product
options to meet a variety of waterproofing needs. And TUFF-N-DRIŽ
adds a high quality fiber glass foundation board that protects
the waterproofing membrane, channels water to the drainage
system, reduces interior condensation, and insulates basement
walls. |
