Tom's Tips on TrustDale Radio with Dale Caldwell:
Basement wall cracks? |
|
|
If you are concerned about the integrity of your home, it's important to keep an eye on your basement. Make sure the walls aren't leaking, bowing, or cracking. If you find a crack in your basement wall, it's important to get it checked out by a professional. It could be a serious structural problem, which should not be taken lightly. |
|
Finishing a basement? |
|
|
Finishing a basement is one of the most effective ways to increase the value of a home. It's important to remember that a basement should be waterproofed before a homeowner spend's their hard-earned money finishing it. The last thing you want to be doing is tearing apart your newly finished basement to fix a sudden leak that occurs after a storm. |
|
Repairing a crawl space? |
|
|
Tom DiGregorio explains the shift in building design from older-styled, vented crawl spaces to healthier, more efficient ones. Tom tells you how and why a crawl space upgrade can save you 20% to 25% on your heating and cooling bills. |

Experiencing water damage, wood rot, mold or termites? |
|
| "Is the dirt outside your home higher than your foundation wall or slab? This can cause a major leak creating serious problems including water damage, wood rot, mold and termites. This is typically a simple landscaping solution by lowering the dirt below the foundation walls or slab." | |
Humidity Problem? |
|
| "Did you know it costs more to heat and cool your home plus promote mold growth if the air inside your home is too damp. That means the relative humidity is above 55% and very unhealthy. Wonder why you have moldy musty smells and your power bills are too high? Proper dehumidification is the solution." | |
Leaking Foundation? |
|
| "One of the biggest misconceptions homeowners have is that changing the slope of your yard away from their house, that it will stop their foundation from leaking again!! Although it's very important, it is not the answer and it will leak again. A professional waterproofing system is the solution." | |
Improperly Channeled Roof Water? |
|
| "The number one reason that causes basements and crawlspaces to leak and foundations to settle, crack and bow is improperly channeled roof water. Be sure your keep your gutters and downspouts clean and pipe off your downspouts at least ten feet away from your home." | |
