Did you know that you can seal your basement, and make it waterproof from dampness and mildew? AquaGuard offers high-quality sealers that will work on anyone’s basement.

Basements are vulnerable to leaks and moisture because they’re constantly touching wet ground. Many realize the solution to this is waterproofing their basements.

The AquaGuard basement sealer flows into the capillaries of the concrete floor and walls. It then expands and forms a tough barrier for all the surfaces it touches. The end effect is a new looking basement that will no longer always be damp.

AquaGuard is user friendly, allowing anyone to install it themselves. The sealer creates fewer fumes than regular latex paint, so this won’t be a hazard to your health. All AquaGuard products are FDA approved, and this sealer is VOC compliant, which means it meets local, state and federal regulations for cleaning and stripping products. If you prefer to have a professional install it, AquaGuard offers that service to all customers.

Created based on the most current phenalkamine technology, this basement sealer is a 100 percent solids-reinforced, epoxy phenolic resin with a very low viscosity. AquaGuard provides the best bonding and water-resistant products that are long-lasting and useful to waterproof your basement.

If you choose to apply the sealer yourself, start by drying out your basement and repairing any cracks. Once your basement is prepared, apply the thermosetting epoxy primer with a roller. Then apply the wall-and-floor coating as one thick layer. Note that concrete is po­rous, so you might want to spray or roll on a second coat to ensure the seal will be completely effective.

Aquatic Technologies guarantees that, if installed properly, its AquaGuard Basement sealer will resist flood and hurricane impact.
