Coal-Cellar & Walkout Moisture

What causes it

Many older Hastings homes have original coal-cellar walkouts and below-grade entries with minimal moisture protection.

What we check

We check these areas for water staining, efflorescence, active seepage and drainage that directs water toward — not away from — the home.

Why it matters

Chronic below-grade moisture rots framing and feeds mold; catching the water path early is far cheaper than the damage it causes.
