"I don't know if you misunderstood either, but a plastic sheet against the inside of a concrete wall is the least correct way to keep moisture from leaking into a basement through a block or concrete wall."
Again, based upon Piffin's reply he is worng and demonstrates he has little understanding of basement water/moisture problems and how to correct them no offense.
A plastic sheet on the inside of a basement masonry wall is one of the BEST ways to not only control liquid water fron entering a basement living space but also one of the best ways to channel water below the basement slab so long as the sheeting can be placed below the slab before pouring.
All due respect to Piffin but I see his basement vapor barrier information as "all wet" and he has yet to demonstrate anything differently or correctly. |
