1.) Keeping you and your family healthy
Did you know that having a damp, dunk and musty basement can make you and your household sick? Having excess moisture in the basement makes it the perfect habitat for mold and mildew. When spores from these organisms are blown into the air they will rise up into the rest of the home (remember warm air rises and the air in a wet basement is usually warmer than the rest of the home).
Your family will inhale the moldy air. Exposure to mold and mildew for extended periods can lead to serious respiratory issues. You can prevent all this by simply waterproofing your basement to prevent the buildup of moisture and thus the development of mold and mildew.
2.) Save a lot of money in utility bills
If you’re concerned about saving money (and many of us are) then waterproofing your basement can save you tons of it. Did you know that heating damp air takes more energy than dry air? The specific heat capacity of water vapor is much greater than of dry air. Your heating and cooling bills will be much greater with damp air in your basement.
3.) Wasted space
Over the years, we collect items that we may have needed at one point but don’t use as frequently today. You may need to use these things in the future or sell them later. You will therefore need storage space for these things. You can’t risk storing these items in a damp basement as they will be destroyed by moisture. Your basement therefore remains virtually useless. Waterproofing the basement will allow you to take advantage of this extra space.
4.) Raise the value of your home
A basement can add significant value to your home. It is therefore important to waterproof the basement if you plan to sell your home in the future. You can even convert it into a living space if you don’t plan to sell the house any time soon.
5.) Peace of mind
Rainfall, floods and other events beyond your control occur. This can lead to the accumulation of moisture in your basement if it isn’t waterproof. The result is damage that can be expensive to fix. Waterproofing your basement gives you peace of mind. You don’t have to worry about damage in your basement when these events occur.
