We use a special blend of adhesive, high strength elastomeric liquid rubber.
It is the best technology today for waterproofing below grade foundations and basement walls. It's high in solids and dries to a tough
800% elastic membrane that resists cracking and peeling. |
  |
| These products are impervious to water when applied in a uniform and seamless
fashion with adequate millage. It flows into cracks and crevices as a liquid and sets up as a durable rubber to seal leaks wherever
they occur. Elastomeric waterproofing sealant for exterior, above-grade walls - dries to form a
waterproof seal to keep water and moisture out. |
Talk to us about it. |
| This product expands and contracts
up to 700%, is highly resistant to cracking and peeling, and remains flexible at -35°F. Ideal for block walls, basement walls, stucco and many
other surfaces. It is heavy duty, yet easily applied by brush, roller or sprayer. Using products developed for cold and wet weather, and it is
formulated to resist fungus, mold and mildew. This product is potable water compliant. Liquid Rubber for below-grade applications. |
| The No. 1 Enemy of Finished Basements is Moisture. Finished walls and floor covering trap
moisture, which accumulates and causes molds and mildew. The musty odor found in many basements is the telltale sign of molds, which
may be growing inside the carpeting or walls, or in upholstered furniture. As houses age, most basements start seeping water through
the concrete or cracks after a heavy rain or snowmelt. The walls, carpets and furniture get wet and molds start growing in just several
days. Moldy drywall, carpeting and furnishings have to be discarded. Why to risk your basement remodeling investment and more
importantly, the health of your family? Before finishing the basement, seal it against moisture.
How about chlorine bleach? Household chlorine bleaches contain 5.25% active sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), which forms hypochlorous
acid (HOCl) when diluted in water. This acid is very effective against many types of microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi and
viruses. However, its use is not recommended in homes because of health and environmental risks. Chlorine bleach is caustic to human
tissues like skin and its lingering fumes are a lung and eye irritant. It can discolor or break down fabrics and is extremely
corrosive even to metals. Not recommended for people with respiratory or heart problems. Short-term exposure to the gas may cause
mild asthmatic symptoms or more serious respiratory problems. If mixed with ammonia-containing cleaners, it releases toxic chloramine
gas (several people have died.). Many automatic dishwashing detergent contain chlorine, which reacts with organic matter and when you
open the dishwasher door, steamy carcinogenic gas (trihalomethanes) rushes out. Chlorine also reacts readily with organic substances
in the environment and creates other hazardous compounds, such as furans and dioxins. |

Call us for Pumps! Contact us about water pumps and pumping systems.
Planning, design and recommendations regarding every type of pumping and piping system.
Basement sump pump systems, backup sump pump systems, submersible pump systems, sewage pump systems, pumping drainage systems, pump
water out basement, basement waste water pump.
There are a variety of system available for below level water. Airtight basin, sump pump with cover, sump pump with an alarm, battery backup pump
and basement floor drain. Well pumps help push water from underground water sources through pipes leading to a home or business. Well water pumps come
with various amounts of horsepower. The size of the home and the number of bathrooms and sinks it contains are important consideration when deciding
which well pump to purchase. If a home has many water outlets, or if the well water pump is located a great distance from the bathroom, sink, or tub,
the home will need a stronger well. Ask us about well water pumps, and pumps with more horsepower. |

Pressure tanks are also water pumps. Pressure tanks help regulate the pressure of the water as it comes into a home. Seasonal changes
can alter the pressure of the water, such as when it is increased by snow melting in the spring. A water pressure tank helps keep the
water flow steady year round. Sump pumps are also water pumps. Many home and business owners battle basement seepage issues. With
excessive rain, flooding, or melting snow, water can become a troublesome nuisance as it collects indoors. |
The best way to remove water from a basement is with a sump pump. Similar to
well water pumps, sump pumps have a blade that is spun by a motor. Sump
pumps are usually installed in the wettest part of the basement by first
inserting a sump bucket into the floor. This bucket sits below the floor
level as water flows into it. The sump pump's motor turns on when the float
inside the sump pump is triggered by the water level. The motor spins the
blade, which pushes the water up the drain hose and out of the building or
house. There are two different types of sump pumps. A submersible sump pump
can be placed below the water line. A floor model sump pump, on the other
hand, sits at floor level. Both water pumps work in the same manner, but
submersible sump pumps handle larger quantities of water and can be fully
submerged without any danger of electrical shortages.

Basement Ventilation
Choices - The wide range of ventilation fans go from the very basic (about $50, normally used to satisfy the
building code) to the stylish and pricey (over $200, normally used where a
quick air change is needed). The choice is based on the specific need,
location, make-up air, noise level, ductwork accessibility, etc. Bathroom fans
are rated by the amount of air they move - CFM (Cubic Feet per
Minute).
The goal should be to chose the right fan, and have it
installed at the right location. |
|
Steam Vent-Out -
Shower steam is produced
quickly, and needs a quick system to vent it out during the shower. A
strong fan, an efficient duct to the exterior and make-up air is essential (door
left open).
|
|
Ductwork -
The duct should run to the exterior. A smooth run is best.
A double back-up flap (one on the fan, and one on the exterior)
should be a must to keep out bugs, birds and unwanted drafts.
Too long or too short is not good. |
Do-It-Yourself Installation
- Your fan will
provide step-by-step instructions. Replacing an existing bath fan is easier, since the wiring is already in place. Venting in a new location requires some careful planning. Your fan should
be installed in the ceiling, between rafters or floor joists. Two critical questions: How will you get switched wires to your
new fan? How will you run the vent ducting to the outdoors? You might have to do some drywall cutting and patching. You may also need
to climb onto your roof to add a vent cover. Good ventilation is important for health and comfort. Bad ventilation reduces
the efficiency of your heating and cooling systems. Commercial property ventilation systems should always be maintained on a routine basis by a professional.
In addition to drawing fresh air into your home, good ventilation keeps air circulating throughout your home and vents home appliances, like the kitchen fan and fireplace and wood
stove, to the outside. Home ventilation includes everything from cross ventilation through open windows, to breezes from electric fans, and fresh air
from an air exchanger.
