Signs You Need Weeping Tile Installation or Replacement
Installing or replacing weeping tiles is important to maintaining the structural integrity of your home and ensuring the health and safety of you and your family. Recognizing the signs you need weeping tile services can help you address potential issues before they turn into extensive repairs.
The experts at Waterproof Basement have put together a list of signs to look for to determine if you need weeping tile installation or replacement services:
Interior vs. Exterior Weeping Tiles
Interior and exterior weeping tile systems are both sufficient basement waterproofing methods with their own set of advantages and disadvantages. The main differences between them are the installation locations, methods for water management, and interior weeping tiles are reactive while exterior ones are preventive.
Review the chart below for a more detailed comparison:
| Characteristics | Interior Weeping Tiles | Exterior Weeping Tiles |
| Intervention | Reactive: Manages water when it reaches the basement | Proactive: Prevents water from reaching your foundation |
| Installation | Installed inside along the lowest points of the basement floor | Installed outside foundation walls, buried underneath the soil |
| Price | $3,000 to $10,000 | $10,000 to $20,000 |
| Excavation | Little to no interior digging, potential basement floor disruption | Extensive work disrupts landscaping and hardscaping |
| Erosion Protection | No protection against soil erosion because of indoor installation | Prevents soil erosion by stopping water from saturating the ground around the foundation |
| Water Management | Directs water from the foundation to a sump pump for expulsion | Diverts water away from the foundation, preventing water accumulation and penetration |
| Long-Term Solution | Controls water entry, not source of accumulation | Provides effective external water management to protect the foundation |
Tired of a Leaky & Wet Basement?
The main reasons for basement leaks are improper drainage & faulty weeping tile, foundation cracks, and hydrostatic pressure from water-saturated soil. Addressing these issues promptly can save you thousands in repair costs.
