VTM report flooding

VTM report flooding

VTM stopped by DryPlan and shows how moisture problems arise from rising groundwater and dried-out walls cracking after a dry summer.

In Steenokkerzeel, a waterproof floor was installed in a basement previously flooded by groundwater infiltration. We explain why basement problems occur year-round nowadays and discuss two possible solutions: a waterproof cement layer or a floating floor with a pumping system. The works ensure that the basement stays dry, even with high groundwater levels.
