What you need to know about the waterproofing of the basement in a private house

  • June 27, 2018

When erecting and decorating a cottage or a country house, it is very important to think over everything to the smallest detail and pay special attention to the arrangement of each building room. But, as a rule, only a few follow this advice, while the rest simply try to make a solid decoration and lining of living rooms without focusing on the basement. However, experts adhere to such a point of view that it is precisely the arrangement of the basement, or rather its waterproofing, is one of the most important conditions of comfort and comfort throughout the house. Waterproofing of the basement floor

Regardless of how groundwater, floors and walls of the basements are located, should be isolated from the upward moisture rising upward, as well as from surface waters leaking through the soil. So, a concrete coating can serve as an ideal waterproofing layer of basement flooring, but as a waterproofing layer of walls it will be appropriate to choose hot bitumen, which makes sense to lay in a two -layer method. It must be taken into account that such a condition is in accordance with the case if it is about groundwater located below the floor of the basement. If soil waters above the floor take place, then the organization of an additional shell is the best solution that will resist the effects of hydrostatic pressure.

Drainage device

According to the opinions of professionals, the most effective and truly effective method in the fight against groundwater penetrating the basement is the installation of drainage. The main meaning of the device of the drainage system is as follows: around the dwelling at a distance of approximately two to three meters from the fundamental base, ditches are created. Ceramic, concrete or some other pipes with a hole intended for the duct of the water are laid on the bottom of the ditches.

Insulation of the external walls of the basement

After that, the ditches are covered with a thick layer of gravel of large sizes, and then a layer of sand, on top of which the soil is laid. Such a system allows the level of groundwater to decrease noticeably. As for the insulation of the external walls of the basement, it is carried out using the following technology. First of all, it makes sense to note that the glow isolation is a waterproof continuous carpet from a flexible sheet or roller material that can be glued into both one and four layers (depending on a particular case). As a rule, it is located at a height equal to half a meter directly from the level of groundwater.
