Philadelphia Basement Parging:In this Dependable
Philadelphia Basement Parging:
In this Dependable Concrete video, we showcase a project in Narberth, PA near Philadelphia, where we transformed a dark, peeling, and dusty basement into a clean and bright space. The basement walls near Philadelphia were initially exposed stones with deep pockets that allowed rodents, insects, and moisture to enter the basement. We repaired and waterproofed the walls with a flat, leveled surface painted in bright white waterproofing sealer.
Before applying cement to the basement walls in Philadelphia, we took care to protect important elements such as electrical boxes, pipes, windows, and electrical wires from any splatter that may occur. This was to ensure that these critical components were not damaged or impacted by the cement during the process. Additionally, we used a waterproofing barrier on the lower wall to protect our work and keep the basement dry.
To renovate the concrete floor in Philadelphia, we removed the old and thin floor, which allowed us to pour a new 3-inch floor with a strong 4000 psi concrete. We also installed a vapor barrier on the floor base to prevent water vapor from penetrating through the floor. Using a pump to move the concrete was a more efficient method as it saved time and reduced labor.
We applied two coats of cement, the first being the scratch coat, to the walls using a mortar sprayer. We sharpened all corners and edges to enhance the appearance of the finished product, which resembled a drywall-like look. To ensure that the paint bonded well to the wall for a long-lasting paint job, we allowed the walls and floors to dry out completely before proceeding with painting.
We used high-quality Sherwin Williams paint specifically designed for use on basement walls to give the walls a professional and long-lasting finish. We sprayed two coats of this paint to ensure a smooth and even coverage that would resist wear and tear over time. To ensure that the new concrete floor was protected and looked great for years to come, we used high-quality floor paint that could withstand foot traffic and other wear and tear.
We have successfully completed this project, and our clients in Philadelphia are thrilled with the results. The basement is now rodent-proofed, waterproofed, and free of dust, providing a clean and safe environment for our clients to use. The walls are now flat and even, thanks to several coats of cement, and the floor is smooth and leveled with straight control joints. We are pleased to have been able to deliver a high-quality finished product that exceeds our client's expectations.
