Timberline Buildings’ Post

The maintenance of traditional masonry buildings is a constant process. This is a wall section at Bamburgh Castle in Northumberland and it tells a clear story of regular maintenance over the years. As a society we think nothing of carrying out an MOT on our cars. However, most people never consider carrying out an annual inspection of their buildings. Regular maintenance either planned or reactive can save you money. As the old saying goes "a stich in time saves nine"!

Display modle of Schomburg basement waterproofing system

You did the smart thing and installed a perimeter French drain to whisk water away from your basement floor. But if the walls aren't waterproofed, that system could backfire. Any moisture seeping through the concrete blocks or stone gets trapped behind your framed walls, soaking insulation and drywall. Always integrate waterproof membranes on the wall when putting in a French drain - it funnels any seepage directly into the drain line before it wrecks your beautiful basement finishing. #Basement #Waterproofing #ConstructionTips

🔧 The Importance of Proper Waterproofing Techniques 🏡 Old methods like liquid tar bitumen (blackjack) for waterproofing basements are outdated 🚫 These historical techniques may have worked on wooden ships hundreds of years ago… But they have now been replaced. Advanced systems ensure podium decks are waterproofed correctly and seamlessly linked with the house's damp courses, preventing water from penetrating basement structures💧🔒 After all, 60% of your body is water... Your building shouldn't be. #waterproofing #podiumdeck #construction #property #flood

Interesting Vinyl Deck Project in South Cambie! 🛠️ Here's a vinyl deck on a Vancouver Special in South Cambie. We're replacing it due to rot.
