Block foundations vs. poured concrete foundations: Which is right for you?
With that said, if you are constrained for time on your upcoming construction project, a concrete block foundation may be the best option - especially if you are building a larger and heavier home or building.
Due to their grout lines, concrete block foundations are more prone to leaks and water damage. If you decide to install a concrete block foundation, our contractors will design and build a proper waterproofing system.
Drain Tile & Damp Proofing Installation
Damp proofing and waterproofing your new foundation is essential to its longevity, integrity, and safety; however, they are not the same techniques.
Whether you opt for interior/exterior drain tile waterproofing or damp proofing (or both), our foundation builders will custom-design a system that protects your foundation for the long-term.
What’s the difference between damp proofing vs. drain tiling?
Damp proofing does not seal cracks or holes in the foundation, nor does it serve as a waterproofing or drainage system.
Drain tiles function as a drainage system. These porous pipes can run along with the interior or exterior of a foundation and redirect water away. They are especially beneficial in areas that are prone to heavy rain and snow. We can also provide sump pump installation in conjunction with a drain tile system.
