      FOUNDATION WATERPROOFING IN NORTH CAROLINA

      Foundation waterproofing in North Carolina is a necessity. You trust your home to keep you warm in the winter, cool in the summer and safe during storms. Houses are built to last, but it’s not going to if water damage threatens its structural integrity.

      Water is a part of daily life, and it’s going to get into your foundation and basement unless you take proper measures to keep it out. There are a few different ways that Phantom Contractors can achieve this, but every home is going to need a personalized solution that fits its unique challenges.

      Why is it Crucial to Keep a Foundation Dry?

      Water is one of the most destructive forces of nature. A flood can devastate a landscape, which means it can also destroy your home if left unchecked. If let in, water will wreak havoc on your foundation, which is key to keeping your house standing. You’ve bought it — you don’t want it to crumble underneath you.

      It’s not only the structure itself that’s at risk. Waterproofing your foundation with Phantom Contractors also protects your belongings. Water can destroy your carpet, ruin old family photographs and devastate your furniture. Depending on what caused the water to enter your home, your insurance may not cover the cost to replace your items.

      There are health impacts, as well. Mold and mildew thrive in damp conditions. Not only will mold and mildew make your home smell musty, but it also creates an unsafe living environment. Symptoms of mold exposure include irritated eyes, coughing and sneezing. If you have allergies or asthma, the impacts are even more drastic.

      How Can You Waterproof a Foundation?

      There are multiple strategies to waterproof a foundation. Phantom Contractors will perform an inspection, find out what your house needs and outline the services that will help. Waterproofing focuses on prevention. Our trained, trustworthy professionals know how important it is to avoid a problem before it becomes a much more serious situation.

      A common DIY strategy is using waterproofing paint, which is essentially just a form of thick paint you put on the walls. It’s not going to stop water seeping in through cracks or through concrete, though. Bubbles will also form in the paint, trapping water inside, and causing mold to grow.

      Phantom Contractors provides more effective measures. One option is dampproofing, which is a waterproof coating that keeps the natural moisture in soil from seeping into your foundation. It’s not going to seal cracks, however. Those will need to be done separately. The coating will be sprayed or brushed on your foundation’s exterior. Some building codes already require this for new homes.

      Another strategy is to use a drainage system outside of your house. The system will take the water near your house and send it away. Sump pumps, which also remove water, are another option.

      Phantom Contractors Keeps You Dry

      Storms will come and go. Waterproofing helps eliminate some of the stress of incoming hurricanes, thunderstorms and floods. You already have to worry about what to do when the power goes out — you don’t need a potential catastrophe on your hands.

      Waterproofing services from Phantom Contractors will help avoid damage to your foundation that can threaten the structural integrity of your home. Keeping water out also means preventing flooding inside that can destroy your belongings and usher in toxic mold. Phantom Contractors will start with an inspection and then come up with a specialized plan to meet your home’s needs.

      FAQs

      What is a crawl space?

      A crawl space is a shallow and unfinished area beneath a building that provides access to utilities like plumbing, electrical wiring, and ventilation systems. It is typically characterized by a height that allows individuals to crawl but not stand upright.

      Why do some houses have crawl spaces?

      Crawl spaces are commonly found in areas with high moisture levels, as they elevate the building above the ground, reducing the risk of water damage. They also offer easy access to utility systems for repairs and maintenance.

      How can I maintain a healthy crawl space?

      To maintain a healthy crawl space environment, consider the following:
      • Ensure proper insulation and moisture control by using vapor barriers and sealing air leaks.
      • Regularly inspect for water leaks, plumbing issues, or signs of moisture intrusion.
      • Install and maintain a ventilation system to promote air circulation.
      • Keep the crawl space clean and free of debris.
      • Monitor for pests and take appropriate measures for pest control.

      How much does crawl space repair or encapsulation cost?

      The cost of crawl space repair or encapsulation varies depending on factors like the size of the crawl space, the extent of damage or moisture issues, and the location. It's best to consult with local contractors who can assess your specific situation and provide accurate cost estimates.
