The temperatures have finally dropped in the Northern Virginia area. While some may be excited for the colder weather and the snow to come, your home's foundation can't say the same. At NV Waterproofing, we have seen the type of damage that cold weather can do to foundations, and are prepared to help you fight the cold weather and keep your foundation sturdy.
All it takes is four to five consecutive days of cold weather (around 40 degrees or lower) to have a negative effect on your home. As temperatures drop lower and lower, the soil around the foundation contracts, and then expands when it warms up. This actually puts enough pressure on your foundation to cause cracks. This fall, we have seen very fluctuating temperatures, which means that even your foundation has been especially prone to cracks and damages this season.
Cracks in foundation are the leading cause of leaky basements. Before it gets too cold, let NV Waterproofing take a look and see if any damage has been done to your foundation that may need repair. We will locate interior and exterior wall and foundation cracks and recommend the best solution.
