Basement & Subfloor in Craigieburn - Frequently Asked Questions

What causes rising damp?

Rising damp occurs when groundwater is drawn upward through porous building materials by capillary action, often due to a missing or failed damp-proof course.

Can you waterproof from inside the basement?

Yes. Negative-side waterproofing is applied to the interior face of basement walls and is effective even when external access is not possible.

How do French drains work?

French drains are gravel-filled trenches with perforated piping that redirect subsurface water away from the building's foundation to a drainage point.
