Basement floor coatings
THE BEST PROTECTIVE COATINGS FOR BASEMENT FLOORS
For homeowners, home maintenance is important for not only keeping the home safe and clean, but also to protect their investment and prevent larger and more costly problems down the line. By virtue of their location underground and common function as storage or entertainment spaces, basements are especially susceptible to weathering and abrasion, and are at a heightened risk of dangerous water infiltration. Protecting basement floors with polyurea basement floor coatings is an easy, reliable, and cost-effective way to protect basement floors from even the worst spills and accidents, whether it be a few buckets of paint, or oceans of water after a natural disaster.
BASEMENT WATER SEEPAGE
While storage mishaps and constant wear and tear can risk a basement floor’s long-term health and functionality, the most common, and unfortunately, most costly risk to basement floors is basement water seepage. Groundwater can penetrate cracks in already porous concrete walls and foundations, which opens a home to mold and mildew. In either case, this can mean dangerous or even life-threatening health and safety risks for any occupants, especially for those with pre-existing respiratory conditions or a heightened sensitivity to airborne contaminants. Polyurea basement floor coatings are waterproof and watertight, insulating floors from any potential water damage, and preventing buildup of those nasty fungi.
