Clients who need or want added protection against outdoor elements and general wear and tear wear will often opt for parging services. Parging involves applying a layer of coating to the above-the-ground portion of a building’s foundation. This layer acts as another barrier of protection. The parging process entails the following:Preparing foundation walls by cleaning or removing existing parge coatingDampening the exposed surface with a soft water sprayMixing the coating to the proper consistencySpreading the coating over the freshly dampened walls evenly and leaving it to dry for 24 hoursApplying an additional layer of foundation parging for even more protection\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWhy Parging Is a Good Investment\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tParging is a solid investment for many home and property owners. Like any investment, many wonder if it\u2019s worth it or not. To answer that question, clients should first become aware of its benefits, such as:Added InsulationEven the smallest of cracks can have major impacts on the energy efficiency of your structure. Foundations with multiple cracks can see significant improvement in keeping desired air in with parging. That\u2019s because the coating acts as an added layer of insulation, helping property owners reduce their energy usage.Extra Weather BarrierBuilding owners should not only be concerned about what\u2019s exiting the cracks in their foundation but what\u2019s entering them, as well. Foundation imperfections are access points for rainfall and other elements to enter your home or building. When this happens, the consequences can be costly and sometimes hazardous. Parging coating fights against this issue, keeping help free-standing water out so your basement stays dry.Fewer Insects and Critters in Your HomeOther uninvited guests that homes and commercial buildings commonly host are small critters and insects. By blocking off their access point, these pests won\u2019t be able to invade your space.Improved Curb AppealAlthough the main purpose of parging might be to better protect foundations and basements, it can also be used for decorative purposes. When applied, the coating can hide a foundation\u2019s imperfections and enhance its appearance to increase curb appeal.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAdvanced Parging Services at Dry Tech Waterproofing Solutions\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDon\u2019t wait until it\u2019s too late to protect your foundation.
