Questions
Helpful Answers Before an Estimate.
Is exterior waterproofing always required?
No. Some problems originate with grading, downspouts, surface drains, cracks, or penetrations. The source should be evaluated before selecting a system.
Can waterproofing stop structural movement?
Water management can reduce saturation, but it does not replace structural evaluation or repair when movement is present.
Is excavation included?
Exterior work may require excavation, protection of utilities and finishes, backfill, and restoration. The proposal identifies the included access and restoration scope.
