Mold Dies when basement walls and floor are dry

The ONLY way to dry both walls and floor is with an


Exterior Foundation drains that works without pumps or electricity
 

"There are many types of mold, and none of them will grow without water or moisture." EPA.gov

Is an Exterior solution right for me?

"Your house is only as healthy as your basement"

MOLD requires moisture to live. Many houses have damp basements as a result of water seeping through the porous cinder block walls. As the water table rises, additional hydrostatic pressure builds up and causes lateral pressure against your home's foundation. It is this pressure which forces water to seep continuously into your block walls. When the water is pooling at the foundation level of your house, capillary action, which is related to the adhesive properties of water, causes water to rise up above the level of the existing water table and to supply persistent dampness to foundation walls. This constant dampness is the perfect home for mold spores to grow in. Many companies offer an interior french drain to solve a home's basement water problems. This interior style solution has a number of drawbacks, one of which is that by design, water will pour through your home's foundation walls, guaranteeing that walls will be damp and hospitable to mold. An Exterior French Drain allows a waterproof Paraseal Membrane to be applied to the home's foundation which will keep your basement walls dry. By installing an exterior membrane and gravity foundation drain, dampness disappears and mold is unable to grow as it would in a typical wet basement wall. eliminate

Mold remediation should always begin with drying the foundation walls. If the source of water is not eliminated, mold will always reappear.

 


Be smart and do the job right the first time. We have installed many exterior gravity systems to homes that already had and "interior" style drain that just didn't do the job properly.
