Slowly but surely spring is coming, and with the amount of snow we have this year it could become a problem in your home if it melts too fast. Water can exert tremendous force on your basement walls, and no expensive interior sealant will keep it out if the hydraulic pressure is great enough. With temperatures forecast into the 30's and 40's for the next few days many of us will find out how well our basements and crawlspaces are sealed. Dirt crawlspaces with no poly seal are a particular problem since soil gas and mold spores have direct access to the home, often through leaky ducts.
If you have basement or crawlspace moisture problems call me at 475-2415 ext. 35 or stop in my office at Trust Lands - 27 Store Road. We can determine why the moisture is intruding and give advice on flood cleanup and steps that can prevent future floods. Give me a call!
