Crawl Space Waterproofing for Kathleen homeowners
Kathleen lots are big, and they almost never have storm drainage. That means every inch of rain that lands on the property has to leave through the soil. Sandy topsoil takes it in, clay below stops it, and the upper ground holds the whole load until it slowly dissipates.
A house sitting in the middle of that is a low point whether it looks like one or not. The backfill around the foundation is looser than the ground around it, so water collects there first and works under the floor. On acreage this happens quietly, because nobody is watching a storm drain back up.
The advantage out here is room. We can intercept water uphill of the house, run a perimeter drain, and route a sump discharge far enough onto the property that it never comes back. Then a sealed vapor barrier goes over the ground. On a big lot the outside half of the work often matters more than the inside half.
Here is what our crawl space waterproofing work includes on a Kathleen home, in town or out toward the Houston County line.
