Q: How do I make good drainage around my house foundation?

• <div><p>The best way to ensure the ground next to your home&rsquo;s foundation drains properly is to divert water away from it as much as possible. While a flood wall can stop water from entering the house, gutters and spouts can help direct rainwater and melting snow away from the foundation. Keep your gutters as clear as possible from dead leaves and other yard debris so they can effectively divert water from your house. Add extenders to the spouts so the water runs out and away from your home, not into the surrounding soil. </p></div>

Q: Is a walkout basement below grade?

• <div><p>A walkout basement is considered to be partially below grade because at least one wall is entirely exposed. In some cases and in specific municipalities, inspectors and appraisers will still count walkout basements as below grade, which means the space can&rsquo;t serve as living space or be rented out. If you intend on using the area as living space or a separate apartment, you should check with your local building department to make sure it&rsquo;s legal to do so.</p></div>

Q: What maintenance is needed after waterproofing or encapsulation?

• <div><p>Regular inspections, maintaining proper grading around the foundation, and keeping gutters clear are advisable. Vapor barriers and sealants may need checking for wear after several years.</p></div>

Q: How expensive is moisture barrier padding?

• <div><p>Generally, moisture barrier padding costs <b>$0.75 to $1.50</b> per square foot, varying by brand and mix. That&rsquo;s a lot more than standard padding, which runs <b>$0.25 to $0.90</b> per square foot. The price difference between these two options might seem steep, but think of it as insurance against future carpet replacement costs and subfloor damage. If you have pets or kids, that extra investment in high-risk areas like your living room often pays off.</p></div>

Q: What can I use instead of crawl space encapsulation?

• <div><p>Venting the crawl space can be a good alternative to encapsulation if you live in a dry climate and the moisture problem isn&rsquo;t severe. You could also try a dehumidifier or install a vapor barrier on the floor, leaving the walls exposed. A new drainage system may eliminate the moisture problem if it is not caused by humidity.</p></div>

Brach is the best!!! I though the basement build out was going to take many months to complete, but he punched it out in weeks. He's very up front in his pricing and there were no surprises whatsoever. Build quality was exceptional and we are very pleased.
