You rely on your home to protect you from the elements, but what can you do to make sure your home is protected? Jaco Waterproofing provides expert foundation waterproofing and basement crack repair services to the Cincinnati, Dayton, and Northern Kentucky area. With over 40 years in the industry, they know one of the best ways to protect your home is with a house wrap.

What is a house wrap? The professionals at Jaco Waterproofing explain that it is a lightweight synthetic material that is installed between the sheathing and the exterior siding of your home. This layer provides a weather-resistant barrier and improves the energy efficiency of your home.

What are the benefits of installing house wrap?

• Moisture protection: House wrap acts as a protective layer around your home and covers any cracks or gaps between your home’s sheathing and insulation. This prevents water from accessing these cracks and prevents mildew growth and water damage to your home’s interior. Preventing moisture from entering your basement will minimize the risk of further structural damage to your basement that can require expensive foundation repairs.

• Energy efficiency: Installing house wrap will minimize the airflow through the cracks and gaps in the walls of your home. This will help keep the warm air in during the colder months and the hot air out in the summertime. Your heating and cooling system will not need to work as hard to keep you comfortable, and this will show in your lowered energy bills. Jaco Waterproofing provides expert house wrap services that will protect your home and make it more energy efficient.
• Other protection: The gaps and cracks that are covered by house wrap make it difficult for insects and vermin to get in. If you discover that unwanted visitors are still getting into your home through openings in your brick walls, call Jaco Waterproofing for their professional brick sealing services.
