"would NOT recommend! Before I bought my house the seller hired this company to put up carbon fiber strips.. They put carbon fiber straps into our crawl space.. stood by this work and claimed there was nothing wrong with this work.. however we had many foundation contractors come out because it did not seem right and we were told a wall anchor was going to be put it and found these straps instead. and all said the same thing. What is this it looks like a 5 year old did it.. ram jack stood by this work and says it is doing its job and there is no need for an anchor at the bottom of the straps and it not being flushed against the wall and pulling up is a “ blemish not a failure” however once I reached out to the manufacturer of the carbon fiber strips I get an email stating it is “ dis heartining to see such a poor install and they will help me through this entire process.” Since the walls were not prepped properly or carbon fiber straps placed properly. as well as the co founder saying this job looks like a 5 year old did it as well. However they have refused to reach back out to the co founder of fortress who has tried to be in contact with them. Instead they email the seller of my house and CC me in stating they will only pay 1600 dollars of the job out of the $4800 that was paid.. SAVE YOURSELF THE HEADACHE!!!! *** anyone who knows about carbon fiber straps is they need to be anchored at the top and bottom however in our case they did not pour a footing to properly secure the carbon fiber straps with an anchor at the bottom***"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Water leakage through window openings is much more common in older homes, but it can also create issues with window frames that are improperly installed. If left unattended, water buildup can cause damage to surrounding fixtures, lead to harmful mold, and compromise the architectural integrity of your home. The potential damage that a water leak poses makes investing in weather- and water-proofing your window frames entirely worthwhile.

Yes, slab leaks are fairly common, especially in older homes and places that are prone to earthquakes which can move home foundations.

Due to the nature of basements, some level of waterproofing is necessary to prevent water from seeping in and causing damage. Some definitive signs that your basement needs waterproofing measures or needs existing waterproofing measures need to be updated include:

  • Water in your basement, including damp walls or puddles on the floor

  • Mold spots in your basement

  • Musty smells or odors

  • Warped doors or walls

  • Cracks in walls

  • Insect issues, such as cockroaches and termites

Depending on the severity, a slab leak can go undetected for months or even years, especially if you don’t carry out routine foundation inspections to find foundation leaks early. However, minor leaks are likely to turn into more severe leaks over time, so you might notice increases in water bills and issues with yard drainage, even if the problem is minor.

While "dry" mode on your AC can help reduce humidity levels to some extent, it may not be as effective as a dedicated dehumidifier, especially in areas with extremely high humidity or larger spaces. Dehumidifiers are specifically designed to remove moisture from the air more efficiently, making them a better choice for tackling persistent humidity issues.
