The tar has eroded and now you have a wet basement
-
During construction a type of waterproofing is usually applied to the foundation before the backfill is done.
-
Tar is a very good waterproofing substance and is good for 30 years or so.
-
The tar coating is degradable and doesn’t last forever.
-
Once the tar is gone the foundation is no longer sealed and the porous concrete is laid bare.
-
Water creates hydrostatic pressure up from beneath the floors and against the sides of your home.
-
When this water pressure forms around the foundation you get a wet basement.
You can’t stop the wet basement unless you control the water
-
When we say a French drain we mean is a perforated pipe used for underground drainage and a sump pump.
-
A French drain wet basement waterproofing system will capture the water and drain the water into a sump pump pit.
-
A French drain is unlikely to ever clog due to the fact that it is not sitting underneath several feet of soil.
