Environmental Factors That Impact Centre Island Basements
1. Coastal Exposure
Salt-laden air and groundwater accelerate concrete deterioration, making basements more susceptible to leaks, corrosion, and foundational stress.
2. High Water Table
With the island surrounded by water, the subsurface often remains saturated, causing constant hydrostatic pressure on foundation walls and slabs.
3. Storm Surge and Seasonal Flooding
Even without direct water entry, storms push groundwater and rainwater toward homes, infiltrating through cracks, joints, and porous materials.
4. Humidity and Internal Condensation
Basements in coastal environments often experience damp air and condensation buildup, fueling mold growth and indoor air contamination.
