Water leaking into your basement can cause severe structural damage, costing a fortune to fix. That small patch of mould in the corner may seem fairly harmless, but it’s a health hazard that can spread throughout your house. The good news is basement flooding and mould are preventable with dry basement solutions such as basement tanking and interior drainage. Discover how to protect your home investment with basement waterproofing specialists, who can even help you convert your basement into a new room, thereby adding even more value to your home.
How Basement Waterproofing Can Add Value to Your Property
Basement and cellar waterproofing can increase your home’s value and provide a great return on investment for a number of reasons:
- Legal Disclosure Requirements: It’s a legal requirement to disclose to buyers whether your property has any current mould issues or is prone to flooding. If you plan to sell your property someday, potential buyers may be put off when they discover your basement isn’t waterproofed.
- Lower Insurance Premiums: Effective waterproofing systems decrease the likelihood of flood damage, potentially leading to lower home insurance premiums and fewer claims.
- Positive Signal to Buyers: Implementing dry basement solutions signals to potential buyers that the home has been well-maintained and cared for.
- Prevention of Structural Damage: By preventing water ingress, waterproofing helps maintain the structural integrity of your property, avoiding costly repairs associated with water damage to foundations and walls.
- More Living Space: Waterproofing your basement or cellar not only protects it from water damage but also prepares it for any basement conversions you might envision for your property.
- Energy Efficiency: Waterproofing a basement has the added benefit of improving thermal insulation, potentially reducing your energy bills.
