Why Exterior Basement Waterproofing is Important
Exterior basement waterproofing stops water before it even reaches your foundation. Although interior waterproofing seals cracks, prevents moisture build-up inside your home, eliminates mould and mildew build-up and diverts any water build-up that does collect in your basement, it does not eliminate all the potential issues wet soil, rain, and snowmelt can create. With an unprotected exterior foundation, water can still seep into cracks and produce leaks.
Exterior basement waterproofing seals your foundation against water and moisture and prevents hydrostatic pressure build-up, which reduces the risk of cracks and leaks.

FAQs About Exterior Basement Waterproofing
What Are the Signs That My Home Needs Exterior Basement Waterproofing?
If your basement needs waterproofing, you might notice these signs:

What Is the Difference Between Interior and Exterior Basement Waterproofing?
Interior and exterior basement waterproofing have the same goal but use different methods and products.
- Interior waterproofing deals with water accumulation and moisture after it enters the home.
- Exterior waterproofing diverts water before it reaches the foundation and reduces hydrostatic pressure, so it doesn’t present a problem.
- Exterior solutions last longer, but they require excavation around your foundation, which makes them more disruptive.
