WATER PROOFING – BASEMENTS
Basement waterproofing Melbourne
Many basements have water seeping into them, flowing leaking water or have damp walls and floors there are many methods of waterproofing a wet, damp basement. Not all damp and wet basements can be waterproofed or damp proofed with the same waterproofing system. Each basement needs to be inspected and assessed so that the most effective waterproof system is used. Consideration of the Source and egress of the water, the extent of the dampness or water leaking into the basement, the construction method of the basement, the building materials used to construct the basement and the access to areas of basement walls are all factors in deciding the best waterproofing method for a damp or leaking basement.

Mould growing in damp basements
Mould growth can occur where dampness, excessive moisture is present in your damp basement. Moulds release countless of tiny spores which travel through the air. If mouldy items and materials are not removed or correctly cleaned high levels of airborne mould spores may be a health risk to occupiers of the house or building. Mould can trigger asthma attacks and aggravate other respiratory and allergic conditions if you think you may have a medical condition due to mould growing in your basement, under your house or in your house consult a medical practitioner.
What to do if you have mould growing in your basement
When mould is found growing in your basement or home it needs to be professionally and safely removed.
Just as important though is to establish the cause of the mould, dampness and excessive moisture within your basement or home.
The problem can be design related or a defective components of a building and/or basement.

Condensation in your basement
Condensation can cause mould growth in basements, houses and subfloor area. Cause fungal decay in timbers and the timber structure of a house or building. Waterproofing and dampproofing your basement can remove the root of condensation in your basement. Pro Team Group provide solutions for ventilating you basement which is an effective way of reducing or removing moisture within a damp basement. Ventilation can reduce relative humidity within a basement.
Why condensation occurs in your basement
Warm air can hold more moisture than cold air. If air is warm enough to store a considerable amount of moisture and if the air is cooled below dewpoint, relative humidity exceeds 100% and condensation occurs.
Condensation can occur where moisture levels are too high.
Water vapours from a source to an area of cold temperature.
Temperatures in the building fabric are too low.
Dampness in basements will increase the humidity level within a basement and building contributing to condensation occurring.
