Waterproofing may sound like a simple process for everyday things in the home. One can usually go to their local store and purchase a tube of caulk or a can of waterproofing sealant that is marketed on TV as a near miracle worker. One spray and you’re done, the water will not be able to penetrate your project. However, waterproofing the foundation of your home from the torrents of natural climate and weathering is a much more immense task. Here at Barrier Waterproofing Services we have developed an entire system that is highly effective for keeping water away from, and preserving the integrity of, the foundation of your home. Here is some detail as to how we do it.
Our system prioritizes a waterproof membrane as the backbone of all exterior waterproofing we provide. The membrane, developed specifically by our team to meet or exceed the performance properties of the best polymeric waterproofing coatings we have worked with for many years. Below is a list of benefits and advantages of utilizing a BARRIER membrane for protecting your home from moisture intrusion:
