Parging coats the visible part of a foundation with mortar or concrete, enhancing appearance and providing protection. Over time, it can deteriorate, causing cracks, crumbling, or peeling. Here’s why this happens and what you can do about it.
Water infiltration is a leading cause of parging failure. When moisture gets behind parging, it weakens and cracks, especially during freeze-thaw cycles. Moisture can come from internal condensation or porous building materials absorbing rain, sleet, and snow. Parging, concrete, cement, and mortar are all porous.
To protect your foundation you need something that will let the moisture out while preventing it from getting in (being absorbed).
If the parging wasn’t applied correctly, it might not adhere properly to the surface, leading to premature failure. This can happen if the surface wasn’t adequately prepared or if the mix was too weak.
Over time, natural wear and tear can cause parging to deteriorate. This is especially true for older homes where the parging has been exposed to the elements for many years.
Using subpar materials can also lead to issues with parging. Inferior products may not provide the necessary durability or resistance to the elements, causing them to break down more quickly.
We understand the frustration and concern that comes with failing parging. That’s why we offer an alternative that not only enhances the appearance of your home but also provides long-lasting protection.
