Wet basement waterproofing with Life-of-House warranty
Highland Park Borough is located in Middlesex County, N.J. The Borough covers 1.8 square miles and is home to 13,982 residents (U.S. Census 2010).
Highland Park received its name for overlooking the Raritan River on “high land” which also was a park-like setting.
In 1905 Highland Park was incorporated by an Act of the New Jersey State Legislature from portions of Edison Township (then called Raritan Township).
Highland Park is the birthplace of the “Band-Aid” which was developed by a Johnson and Johnson employee.
Wet Basement waterproofing is necessary because of three main factors
-
A high water table. It rises from under your basement during times of heavy rain.
-
The basement is made of porous concrete. The tar applied during construction has degraded and no longer exists.
-
The basement is located below the frost line. That means water can be present around the foundation in Winter.
If you get a wet basement every spring, you must control the water coming in.
-
An unexpected wet basement can damage walls and floors, destroy carpeting, ruin furniture and lead pretty quickly to mold.
-
Dryness is key to a successful basement project because water damage can really wreak havoc in your home.
-
French drain waterproofing systems with a sump pump are an important means for achieving a dry basement.
