Foundation Repair Photo Album: Waterproofing Below-Grade Foundation Walls - Carlton, OR

John's has been waterproofing homes in the PNW for over 50 years, so this homeowner knew he could rely on us to waterproof the below-grade foundation walls of his new garage. One phone call to our office, was all it took to get the ball rolling, and we sent out a design specialist to take a look. This homeowner was definitely ahead of the game since they wanted to waterproof the home from the get go. Doing so, would ensure that the foundation walls would remain protected from the devastating effects of water damage - creating a more stable, and much longer lasting structure upon completion than one built without waterproofing protection. As an added bonus, this homeowners forward thinking now, would undoubtedly save him time and frustration in the future. In order to waterproof these newly constructed foundation walls, our crews installed Paraseal and TremDrain directly onto the below-grade portions of the wall - where the Earth would push against them - to prevent hydrostatic pressure build-up as well as the possibility of water intrusion through the walls. Paraseal and TremDrain work together as a dual system, forcing ground water to drain down foundation walls, instead of through them, while also physically blocking water intrusion by creating an impenetrable surface of HDPE and expanding bentonite clay. The combination of Paraseal and TremDrain offers professional, long-lasting protection to below-grade foundation walls from water intrusion, giving homeowners valuable peace of mind. John's expert crews work diligently to go above and beyond for all of our customers, by installing the highest quality waterproofing components and systems available.
