The difference between a homeowner, or a builder putting in a system and a qualified, and certified
basement waterproofing professional?
Is that the basement waterproofing professional does this for a living this is all he does
and this systems depending on the company are warrantied for a lifetime of the structure
which is really what the homeowners should be looking for. Someone to stand behind the
system to make sure that it works properly. Someone that understands the mechanics of
the potentials and the dangers of the waterproofing, someone that does this fulltime is essential
using a carpenter, plumber, or builder to install these. I mean it can be done and the
homeowner could do itself as well, but the reason you are choosing the waterproofing
professional is simply for the warranty, the peace of mind that you know that it is installed
properly, someone to call, and that someone is going to deal with any issues that can
occur.
For example Basement Technology the only way their system can fail is installation error
or some pump failure which is a mechanical device. These companies have a stringent training
for their employees. They have certification levels. The sub pumps itself are the best
on the market and they are not pumps that you could just buy from Home Depot, or Loads,
or anything like that.
You need a professional to install these systems for these reasons. The warranty, the professionalism,
and to know if that something goes wrong they have someone there to fix it. Water is very
tricky and it’s not something to be taken lightly. We can all put our roof on as well.
Homeowners could go through a roof fund. The problem is during the north eastern starts
through it starts leaking who do you call? You have to do it yourself. Trial and error
on your own home can create water damage and further mold and mildew issues on the home.
Basement Technology for example, I'm using them because they are one of the best companies
around. Basement Technology has a patted sub for system it’s a 2 piece system that could
be integrated into a full footing configuration. There are 6 possible footing configurations
that are out there. You cannot just take a pipe with stone and expect it to be done properly
or take a one piece system that many of their competitors have and expected to work in every
footing configuration. The thinking man system and Basement Technology puts outs these are
the best system on the market and they are patted like I said and this things work fantastic.
There are some pumps that are installed and do not look like some pump. They can hide
the pumps behind the walls or put a carpet right over the top of them. It doesn’t look
like there is a waterproofing system in there and that is what’s most important.
Being a homeowner myself, I know that when I buy something for my home I go to a professional
and its always smarter to go through a professional when you are dealing with a basement waterproofing
problem where water is very tricky. Thank you.
