Recent Media Coverage of Basement Waterproofing

• April 1st Indiana Foundation Service was granted into the Adopt a Median program.  We are trying to do our part to make Indianapolis Indiana look clean.  Jonathon Lester headed up this task and he quotes, "Thousands of people pass by the land that we are now responsible for daily on their way to work.  My hope is that the commuters will take notice of the clean, manicured area and get a little relaxation before they hit the grind.  Possibly it will move them to do something within their resources to enrich someone else's life!"

• Questions: How does your system stop groundwater from coming up through cracks in the floor?

   

  This is a good basement waterproofing question.  As the seasons change or even if you receive a large amount of rain, ground water will rise causing basements to flood. By nature ground water rises evenly so your basement and our basement waterproofing system is installed at the footers below the surface. Our basement waterproofing system is also designed to only let water in and not out. This is very important in a basement waterproofing system because if this water is let back out foundation problems can and will occur. More often then not we are called out to straighten the foundation of a home owner who hired a contractor that purchased their products from the local Home Improvement Store and didn't use a system like our patented basement waterproofing system.  It is very important when purchasing a system that you ask if it stops both ground water and water that comes in through the walls. It is equally important to ask your designer where they purchase their equipment and how many years have they been in business.

   

• Is my crawl space letting in Radon Gas into my Home?
  Radon Gas is a naturally occurring, toxic, gas found in the soil of most areas.  If you are not using the cleanspace encapsulation system then the answer is probably yes.  The EPA, Environmental Protection Agency, has linked Radon gas exposure to lung cancer.  Normal crawl spaces let the toxic gas come up easily through the floor.  Cleanspace is 20 mm thick on its own so it not only controls the Radon gas but also stops moisture.  The system has many upgrades as well, such as an exhaust pipe to push the radon gas outside from your home.  You can also add the quiet triple safe sump pump to keep out any water that comes into your crawl.  Triple safe sump pump is by far the quietists sump pump on the market and works the best!
