Behind the Walls – McNaughton Homes

BEHIND

WALLS

Waterproof Foundation

WATCHDOG WATERPROOFING’s flexible membrane provides thorough, seamless coverage for basement walls. It also seals shrinkage cracks – effectively blocking potential seepage points. This resilient membrane even blocks out water under hydrostatic pressure, which occurs naturally underground (a performance trait that mere dampproofing can’t provide).

Durability

As a result, WATCHDOG WATERPROOFING transforms mere basement space into reliably dry, usable space, and that increases the versatility and value of your home.

Value

Because the warranty is transferable, you add to your home’s resale value when you add WATCHDOG WATERPROOFING to your basement.
