Water-proofing in the Home

One of the most common water-proofing job in the home is sealing the basement walls.
  Now this isn't a very hard job we just need to be clean so the drylock we yous bonds the best to the block and concrete of the walls
   


know I'm going to go through what i have found to be things best to use. Drylok is the best brand in my opinion  Latex very good but it is very thick so were going to need a brush that can do the job.

Now take a broom and sweep the walls as clean as you can get them. Fallow with a vac. for best clean up..
Now that's all done we can start to use owner drylok.
We might want to put down some drop cloths depends on the floor and how you feel about it.. like if your going to put carpet down this shouldn't matter much. Just  prep the area. The way you feel fit for the job. That's why it's great to do it yourself.
just cut in and roll on just like were painting any other room of the house.
we're going to put several coats on. Just let dry and repeat..
REMEMBER
Putting more on is better than not enough...
