How Foundation Parging Protects Your Home’s Foundation Walls

The stability of your home relies heavily on the strength of its foundation. Foundation parging adds a crucial layer of protection to your foundation walls. This process involves applying a thin coat of mortar to concrete surfaces and masonry walls, creating a smooth barrier that protects against water damage and inclement weather.

The parge coat helps hide surface imperfections and can be applied above grade to concrete block foundations and poured concrete. At D’Angelo & Sons, we use high-quality parging materials and proper bonding agents to ensure durability and enhanced curb appeal.

Common Foundation Issues Addressed by Parging in Burlington

Cracks and surface imperfections in your foundation can lead to significant problems if not addressed promptly. Our thorough inspection process helps identify and rectify these issues efficiently. Here are some common foundation problems we address:

• Cracks and Gaps: These can let water in, causing damage over time.
• Surface Imperfections: Parging helps hide these, giving a smooth finish.
• Old Parging Degradation: We repair and update deteriorating parging.
• Exposure to Elements: Protect your foundation from weather and environmental damage.
• Pest Entry Points: Seals off small gaps that pests use to enter your home.

Materials We Use Used For Successful Foundation Parging

Materials play a crucial role in foundation parging. At D’Angelo & Sons, we prioritize quality and longevity in our projects. Choosing the right parging mix is essential for the stability and durability of your concrete foundation. We use a specialized mix that includes Portland cement, sand, and lime, ensuring a strong bond and smooth finish.

In addition to Portland cement, proper admixtures are vital. These additives improve the mixture’s workability and adhesion to concrete surfaces. We meticulously clean the foundation using a wire brush to remove any existing parging or debris. This preparation is key for the new parging material to adhere correctly and provide a finish coat that protects against inclement weather and surface imperfections.

Benefits of Foundation Parging for Burlington Homeowners

A properly parged foundation wall acts as a durable barrier against the elements. The parge coat, made from cement and mortar, smooths out the surface, covering any imperfections. This layer is particularly effective above grade, where the foundation is most exposed.

Additionally, a smooth parging layer on your home's foundation walls significantly enhances curb appeal. By hiding surface imperfections, it ensures your foundation wall looks clean and uniform, adding to your property's overall value.

Lastly, foundation parging provides an extra layer of insulation. This barrier helps protect your foundation against water infiltration and temperature fluctuations, ensuring long-term structural integrity. D'Angelo & Sons ensures that every parging project is completed with precision, using proper admixtures and bonding agents for optimal results.

Costs and Considerations for Foundation Parging

On average, the cost of concrete parging in Burlington ranges from $3 to $6 per square foot. This estimate includes surface preparation, the parging mix, and the finish coat. The final price can vary based on the size of the area, the condition of the existing parging, and the complexity of the job. For example, parging a standard 1,500 square foot home's foundation walls might cost between $4,500 and $9,000. For detailed pricing and a free consultation, please contact us.
