How come other companies find it necessary to relieve the hydrostatic pressure the blocks hold by drilling holes or weeps to relive the pressure. if the blocks supposidly act like a sponge wont the water eventualy find a way in?

They do this because they have NO INTENTION of waterproofing the basement to begin with. They create these silly ‘water letter inners’ simply to encourage the basement to leak, channel the leaking water to a sump pit and pump the water back out of the basement. Pumping water out of a leaking boat is NOT ‘waterproofing the boat’. These people are in the business of ‘water mitigation’. We are in the business of water elimination and basement waterproofing by the true definition of the word. The redirection of water and the pumping of water are not waterproofing and the installers of these systems will/should agree if their intention is to NOT mislead you. Ask them if their intention is to ‘dry up the earth beneath and surrounding the foundation’. When they say no (which they should because it’s just common sense that drainage can not) then ask them what’s stopping moisture and radon from entering throughout any portion of the basement.

Will i have signs of efloresence or calcium deposites on my walls after application has been applied for a while?

Thursday, April 12th, 2007

Ahhhh EXCELLENT question! You really opened up a can of worms here J The answer is NO, you will never have efflorescence after Sani-Tred has been used. Other products like RadonSeal, Drylok and the like DO NOT stop efflorescence from reoccurring because they ARE NOT 100% waterproof, moisture-proof, radon proof and vapor tight.

Efflorescence IS a sign that water/moisture has already entered and evaporated. Efflorescence is the minerals left behind after evaporation.

How do I go about getting this off the walls and floor ( its flaked up in some areas ) but in the areas were it is still sealed?

Question:

How do I go about getting this off the walls and floor ( its flaked up in some areas ) but in the areas were it is still sealed. Is their a product or a process that you can recomend for removing it. What if all of the paint doesn’t come off … can I still use your product over it ?

Answer:

“Off The Wall Coating Remover” 

In order to remove Drylok, paints, coatings, etc. We do offer “Off The Wall Coating Remover”. Off The Wall Coating Remover is non-hazardous, non-toxic, water soluble, environmentally friendly, will not burn your skin, and is low odor.

Off The Wall Coating Remover can be brushed or rolled. Once applied to most paints, coatings, sealers, adhesives, etc. it will emulsify the product to make it easy to strip using at least a 3,500 psi pressure washer with a zero orbital tip. Once the original substrate is clean, dry, and free of any previous applied products, you can begin the Sani-Tred application.

Epoxy paints are known for their extreme chemical resistance therefore “Off The Wall Coating Remover” may not successfully break down some epoxies. A test area is always suggested regardless what is being stripped.

Off The Wall Coating Remover’s rate of use is typically estimated @ 150 sq’ per gal. The exact rate of use should be determined by your “test area” as some paints/coatings may strip using less Coating Remover than others.

Nothing will permanently bond to vinyl (plastic). You will need to remove the vinyl then apply to the wood or concrete.
