On Saturday, June 1st Jon Erbst, Service Manager for Thrasher Basement Systems was a guest for radio show 'Start Movin' sponsored by Nebraska Home Sales.
During this radio show Jon discussed why so many homeowners are experiencing water problems this spring, the answer being from dry soil. Creating an easy pathway for rain to build up around a house and eventually create enough hydrostatic pressure to push through cold joints and foundation cracks. Also, discussed were some precautions a homeowner can take to try and prevent a problem. Which is to make sure gutters are clean, downspouts are on, and building positive slope from the foundation out to the yard.
Jon also explained how Thrasher could be of help. We carry an interior drainage system, introduced in 1994, that revolutionized the waterproofing industry, called WaterGuard. The WaterGuard system is connected to a sump and pump system to discharge the collected water to a proper area outside. This brings water from within a basement environment.
