Homeowners and commercial property owners understand the problems that groundwater in the basement can create for their foundations.

While basement waterproofing is an effective solution, property owners can take it a step further with parging for ultimate protection.

Our Parging Services
Foundation parging is the coating applied to the above-the-ground portion of a building’s foundation. Because part of a property’s foundation is exposed to the elements and temperature variations, it’s subject to wear and tear and general damage. The layer of parge coating acts as another barrier of protection.
A damaged foundation is an invitation for water and pests. For a simple solution, property owners may consider resolving the issue with a fresh coat of paint. However, the coat of paint may trap moisture underneath, leading to mold growth on the walls in time. A more effective and long-lasting solution is professional foundation parging repair services. Our foundation parging process entails the following:
- Removing all the existing parge coating from the wall
- Dampening the exposed surface with a soft water spray
- Spreading the fresh mix and leaving it to dry for 24 hours
- Applying a second layer of foundation parging for maximum protection
We use the best technology and materials for every job at Dry Tech Waterproofing Solutions. For our parging services, we use two different types of coating:
- Cement parging: Less resistant, but very easy to work with and available in a wide range of colors
- Acrylic coating: More durable, characterized by high adherence, air tightness, and flexibility
Benefits of Parging
While simply adding a layer of parging by itself may not be an effective waterproofing solution, parging can be immensely beneficial to the overall foundation waterproofing process. Still, many property owners may be wondering if it’s worth the investment. Consider the following advantages of parging to make your decision:
Enhances Structural Integrity
Even the slightest of cracks or holes in your foundation can progress into a more serious issue if not appropriately addressed. Waiting can lead to expensive repairs and unnecessary stress. Parging covers any existing cracks on the walls and adds an extra layer, increasing the structural integrity of your walls. Because the Northeast is known for its harsh winters, parging may be ideal to help prevent water from freezing in these cracks and holes, which is a common cause of damage.
Improves Energy Efficiency
All those small cracks in your wall slowly release the warmth from your home. Electing to have your outer foundation walls professionally treated will make them stronger and help keep the heat in while reducing energy usage. By covering those cracks with parge coating, you lower your carbon footprint and may potentially save money on heating bills.
Elevates Curb Appeal
An added benefit of parging is the ability to add a visual appeal to an otherwise mundane portion of a home or commercial building. Property owners augment their curb appeal in addition to gaining more structural protection when they choose professional parging services from the experts at Dry Tech Waterproofing Solutions.
