Why Basement Waterproofing Matters for Seattle Homes
Ignoring moisture issues in your basement can lead to severe structural damage and health risks. Seattle’s high rainfall and clay-rich soils create hydrostatic pressure that forces water through foundation cracks.
Professional basement waterproofing helps you:
- Prevent Foundation Damage: Stops water from eroding structural components.
- Improve Indoor Air Quality: Eliminates the damp environment where mold and mildew thrive.
- Protect Your Investment: Increases your property value and creates a safer living space.
- Prevent Flooding: Helps keep your basement dry after heavy Pacific Northwest storms.
Our 7-Step Polyurethane Injection Process
We use advanced polyurethane foam injection — a proven, non-invasive method for sealing basement walls, floors, and foundation cracks from the inside:
- Initial Inspection & Assessment: We identify water intrusion paths, cracks, and problem areas.
- Prepare Injection Sites: We clean the cracks and install precision injection ports at key points.
- Temporary Surface Seal: A seal is applied to prevent foam from escaping during the injection process.
- Polyurethane Injection: High-quality polyurethane foam is injected. It expands to fill the entire crack, even through the exterior of the wall.
- Curing & Expansion: The foam hardens into a durable, flexible, and waterproof barrier.
- Finish & Cleanup: Ports are removed, injection holes are patched, and the area is thoroughly cleaned.
- Post-Inspection: We verify the seals and provide maintenance tips to prevent future flooding.
Benefits of Polyurethane Basement Sealing
- Quick & Efficient: Most projects are completed in a single day with minimal disruption.
- Durable & Flexible: The foam remains flexible, meaning it won’t crack if the foundation shifts slightly.
- Cost-Effective: Typically much less expensive than exterior excavation or rebuilding interior drains.
- Eco-Friendly: We use environmentally safe materials that are sustainable for your home.
- Versatile: Highly effective for poured concrete, block foundations, and basement walls.
