Interior Waterproofing
At 4 Halos Waterproofing, we use a comprehensive, methodical interior waterproofing process to ensure your basement remains dry and protected for years. The process begins with excavating a trench along the interior perimeter of the basement. We then install a 4-inch rigid PVC pipe, which is far more durable and clog-resistant than the corrugated pipes commonly used by competitors. This pipe is designed for optimal water flow and longevity, reducing the risks of debris or root intrusion.
To enhance the system’s effectiveness, we fill the trench with clean, washed stone, which facilitates water movement while filtering out finer particles. A vapor barrier is installed along the walls, directing moisture downward into the drainage system. We then seal all foundation cracks in the walls and floor to eliminate any potential entry points for water.
The system channels water to a sump basin, where a high-quality sump pump expels it away from your home. For added peace of mind, we also install a battery backup pump, ensuring the system remains operational during power outages or heavy storms. Finally, we repaint the basement floor and thoroughly clean the area, leaving your space restored and ready for use.
This comprehensive approach, combined with top-tier materials, ensures an effective solution to prevent water damage and maintain the integrity of your home
Exterior Waterproofing
Our exterior waterproofing process ensures lasting protection for your foundation. We begin by carefully excavating down to the footer to expose the foundation wall. Once accessible, the walls are cleaned and coated with a high-quality waterproofing membrane, often referred to as elastomeric or asphaltic tar, such as HYDRALASTIC or similar products. This coating creates a robust barrier to water infiltration.
Next, we install a perforated drainage pipe along the footer to guide water away effectively. To enhance drainage, we backfill the area with clean stone, which promotes efficient water flow toward the piping system. Finally, we restore the site to its original condition by replacing the soil and ensuring a neat finish.
Our method provides a durable defense against water damage, surpassing standard practices by combining advanced materials and expert application techniques
