\ A wet basement can disturb
the peace of home and 11reside
las much as q roof leak. It's a
common problem. Far from be-
ling confined to low locations, wet
Easements often occur several
hundred feet above sea level. You
can get one on mountainside
with inadequate grading and i'm
proper construction.
But you can't always blame the
builder. Water Is tricky. It can
literally flow uphill-by capillary
action, the way slice OF bread
|soaks up a spot of water on a
plate. And it can come right out
of the air-by condensation.
Although a damp basement
shows capillarity and condensa-
ton as the usual offenders, an
actually wet basement is invari-
ably caused by leakage. Free
water means a leak. Hydrostatic
pressure, built UP outside the
foundation walls. can become SO
great that water is forced up un-
der footings, through cracks In
the basement floor or through
Joints between floor and walls.
This is usually brought about
|by poor grading, insufficient
drainage and imperfect water
proofing on the outside.

vorious Methods Cure Leoky Easements

lat all. q good job Of membran-
ling is important. You virtually
have to tar and feather the foun-
dation. Brush applied asphalt
emulsions or bituminous cutbacks
are rated by Government engi-
neers as the most inferior Of three
methods.
Trowel coatings Of bitumens
and solvents are rated only
slightly better. Hot asphalt or
coal-tar pitch tops the list. When
this includes several layers Of
lbituminous-saturate cotton or
Ifelt in the manner Of built-up
roofing, you get a sound water
proof membrane seal.
/ This is applied to the outside
of q foundation because the more
1pressure against it. the tighter it
seals. If the wall surface is too
rough or porous, as with hollow
masonry, a parge coat or cement
lgrout is applied first to fill cracks
and give a smooth surface for the
membrane.
Stucc0 Coating Method.
Exterior pargeting often suffices
for a.water-resiStant wall. This is
done with two coats Of stucco each
70 inch thick, mixed with part
cement to 8 or 4 sand with little
or no lime. Sometimes powdered
iron and an oxidizing agent are
added to the first coat. The the
ory is that the oxidizing iron ex-
pands and fills voids.
With a house already built, out
side waterproofing may be prohib-
Iitive because of the expense of ex-
Icavating. Unless leakage is partic-
ularly serious, less thorough
methods may fill the bill.
Sometimes leakage can be
stopped with parge or mortar
coat on the inside Of the base
ment.
This should be done In dry
weather with the basement as dry
as possible. A watertight concrete
mix is used-no more than six gal
Ions of water for each sack OF
cement.
ANY moisture in the sand must
be allowed for. Very wet sand will
need only four gallons Of water
Thorough mixing to q plastic
