Missouri and Kansas have weather that can be a threat to your home. When a major storm passes through, your home may be a target for water damage. Water that enters your home then becomes a breeding ground for mold and mildew. If allowed to fester, these mold spores will spread throughout the entire home, causing health issues and become more difficult to remove.
Your home is sensitive to water damage even after the water recedes because moisture is difficult to detect. The moisture can collect behind the walls where mold and bacteria may multiply without you even knowing it.
When you have water in your Missouri or Kansas City home, it can cause you to lose personal possessions and living space. It will also cause wood rot, which will create structural damage throughout the entire home.
Waterproofing Solutions
If you have water damage in your Missouri or Kansas home, it is important to contact a professional to come and inspect your home. Pro Foundation Technology has the waterproofing solutions for your Missouri or Kansas City home. Our services include:
- Interior Waterproofing - This consists of installing a perforated drain pipe inside the perimeter of the interior footings. This drain pipe will drain the water away from the basement.
- Exterior Waterproofing - This stops water from ever accumulating around and under the foundation. Exterior waterproofing consists of a waterproofing membrane, drainage board and a 4" perforated drain pipe that is installed around the exterior of the home. This will prevent water from entering the basement and keep it away from the foundation.
- Surface Drainage/Water Collection - This system is used to prevent storm water drainage problems in Kansas City and Missouri. It consists of catch basins, channel drains, pop-up emitters, drainage piping, atrium grates and drywells. This system will collect excess rainwater and move it away from the foundation.
- Sump Pumps and Sump Pits - This combination of sump pump and sump pit will collect water into the pit and as the sump pit collects water, the sump pump will turn on and drain the water away from the basement.
- French Drain System - This system consists of drain tiles with perforations and gravel to allow water to flow through and enhance the filtration process.
