			<description><![CDATA[The biggest problem with waterproofing an excisting foundation is that waterproofing is not the only part of the problem..... Drainage is the other problem and usually the biggest issue. If you don't have drainage your waterproofing application will not perform properly. Block foundation are hollow and allow water to get trapped inside because of damages or no weeping tile. This can cause damage to the substrate in turn cause damage to what ever waterproofing application has been used to protect it. If the foundation wall has good weeping tile, drainage and waterproofing done properly blueskin is a good waterproofing application.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The house pictured on this site was 50 years old and the foundation was soaking. The basement had been very wet since the house was built. There wasn't time to have it dry before it was closed up again. The bottom of the wall was very wet and the Aqua Bloc didn't dry properly and the blueskin didn't stick well at the bottom. That said, the basement is still bone dry after 6 years. The backfill will keep the membrane tight against the wall even if it's not full adhered. If the drainage is effect as it is on this house (despite the clay soil) the blueskin should protect it. So in this experience, the solution was effective, but your contractor isn't wrong to say there may be problems with the blue-skin adhering. I guess the only question is whether that compromises the effectiveness of the solution. In this case, it doesn't appear to have.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[talked to someone from a reputable company who said blueskin does not work on older foundations with water leakage. The water diffuses back out from the foundations, ruins the 'glue' and the seal is lost within 3 months. It does work very well in new construction or new builds. Do you have a comment ?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The Platon membrane is not essential if you've got the blueskin membrane. It simply adds an extra layer of protection to the blueskin when you're back filling. The platon is also helpful if you're putting styrofoam insulation on the foundation which can go between the blueskin and the platon.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hi, My builder has gug all around the house, and is proposing to use 3/4 clear rock, Moxy Bakor Blueskin, 4'sock tubing, primer, concrete mix, install a footing, and parge the mix. He did nor mention any Platon membrane to be added to the Moxy Bakor Blueskin one? What do you think? Thanks for any advice.]]></description>
