"I retained Advanta Clean, represented by Tim Kiser, to provide surface mold remediation which was caused by excess humidity in my home due to an air conditioning problem. Tim and his crew did an exceptional job. The crew was meticulous and very conscientious working to remove the mold yet at the same time causing no damage to the walls and surfaces. They were careful to cover furniture and fixtures and treated my home as if it were their own. More importantly, Tim guaranteed his work, assuring passage of mold clearance by an independent lab before final payment was due. I highly recommend Tim Kiser and Advanta Clean for mold remediation.
Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

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.
