Q: How long does ice and water shield last?

• <div><p>In perfect conditions&mdash;meaning, no overexposure to the elements without roofing material on top of it&mdash;an ice and water shield can last for decades. In fact, many come with a limited lifetime warranty because they should last for a long time. If, however, the membrane is exposed to the elements during building or if there is a delay in installing the roofing material, it might only last up to 180 days if exposed to the elements. The key is to make it a layer of protection and then protect that layer by installing the roofing.</p></div>

Q: Does everything get wet in a wet room?

• <div><p>No, everything doesn&rsquo;t get wet if the bathroom is well-designed and the fixtures are properly installed. It&rsquo;s important that the floor of a wet room drains correctly, and proper waterproofing and slip-resistant flooring are used to avoid creating slipping hazards. Since the shower isn&rsquo;t housed in an enclosed space, you&rsquo;ll need to make sure the towel rack and toilet paper holder are placed in areas where they won&rsquo;t get wet. </p></div>

Q: Which areas of my home are at risk for mold?

• <div><p>Unfortunately, mold can grow pretty much anywhere, on any kind of surface. However, you&rsquo;re most likely to see it in damp areas like basements or bathrooms, as well as anywhere there has been a water leak. Consult a local mold specialist to determine if certain areas of your home are prone to mold based on climate and other factors.</p></div>

Q: What are the cost factors for the price of basement waterproofing?

• <div><p>Several factors can impact the cost of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/whats-return-investment-basement-waterproofing.htm">waterproofing your basement</a>. Some of the most common cost factors include:</p><ul><li><p>Location</p></li><li><p>Square footage</p></li><li><p>Cause of the water leak</p></li><li><p>Type of foundation</p></li><li><p>Accessibility</p></li><li><p>Waterproofing method</p></li><li><p>Materials</p></li><li><p>Contractor experience and availability</p></li><li><p>Engineering reports, if needed</p></li><li><p>Structural and other repairs</p></li><li><p>Permits </p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: When should you not finish a basement?

• <div><p>Basements with persistent moisture problems or flooding shouldn&rsquo;t be finished until the moisture issues have been fixed. In addition, if your foundation is cracked, you have unmitigated radon levels, or you have asbestos or lead pipes, remediate the underlying problem before finishing your basement. Turning a basement into living space before fixing these issues can lead to serious health risks or structural damage. </p></div>

I love the fact that the owner came out with the crew and explained the whole process to me. I did not have to pay any money up front because he wanted to ensure that I was satisfied with the job. They are currently working on the job and have not completed it thus far.
