Causes of basement leaks
Vochtproblemen ontstaan veelal door optrekkend vocht, middels grondwater, dat via scheuren en poreuze muren de kelder binnendringt. Slechte of verouderde waterdichting vergroot het risico op opstijgend vocht.
Rising damp and basement leaks
Rising groundwater enters the basement through cracks or porous walls. Leakage occurs especially during heavy rainfall or when the groundwater level is high, especially if the waterproofing of the basement is outdated or inadequate.
Poor drainage
Poor drainage around the house can lead to water accumulation. This increases pressure on basement walls and floors, allowing moisture to penetrate more easily.
Other causes
Leaking pipes or a faulty drainage system in or around the basement can also contribute to moisture problems.
Combined with poor ventilation
When damp air lingers in the basement due to inadequate ventilation, condensation forms. This can lead to mould growth and damage to the basement structure.
By addressing the causes, you can effectively protect your basement from moisture and damage!

Consequences of a flooded basement
A damp basement can lead to mould growth, damaged items, structural damage and high costs. Timely intervention is crucial to prevent these problems.
Mould growth
Moist basement conditions promote mould growth, which not only damages the home but also deteriorates air quality.
Mould can cause respiratory problems and allergies, especially in vulnerable groups such as children and the elderly, according to the GGD.
Damaged items
Stored items such as wooden furniture, textiles and books are often damaged beyond repair by moisture. Rotting, mould and deformation are common consequences, causing emotional and financial losses.
Structural damage
Prolonged exposure to moisture weakens walls and floors, which can lead to cracks, crumbling and even structural instability. This compromises the safety and value of your home.
Musty smell
Moisture and mould create a lingering musty smell, which penetrates deep into materials such as carpets and walls. This reduces living comfort and can be difficult to remove.
Higher costs
Repair work such as removing damage, replacing materials and taking preventive measures such as drainage or waterproofing incur significant costs. Timely intervention prevents these costs from rising unnecessarily.
Waterproofing your basement protects your home and prevents future problems!

Solution: Waterproof basement
Een grondige en deskundige diagnose is essentieel om vochtproblemen in uw kelder op te lossen. Lavos Totaal Service heeft jarenlange ervaring, uitgebreide vakkennis en de modernste meetapparatuur om uw vochtproblemen te lokaliseren en op te lossen.
Het zelf aanpakken van vocht en schimmel in de kelder is niet verstandig. Onze specialisten maken uw kelder van binnenuit waterdicht. Afhankelijk van de situatie gebruiken we één of meerdere methodes.
1. Injecting walls and sealing bilge seams
For leaky basements, injection is a very effective method. By drilling holes in the basement wall and installing injection nipples, a two-component injection fluid is injected under high pressure. This liquid completely fills cracks and holes, stopping leaks in the wall and bilge seams.
Wanneer de kim, oftewel de aansluiting wand/vloer, lekt, dan wordt er door middel van een chemische injectie en/of een meerlaagse afdichting de lekkage verholpen.Deze aanpak zorgt ervoor dat bestaande scheuren geen vocht meer doorlaten en de kelder waterdicht wordt.
2. Basement drainage
Basement drainage is ideal for persistent moisture problems. A drainage system actively drains water to a pump or drain, prevents water accumulation and keeps the basement dry.
3. Kelder bekuipen / kelderafdichting
U kunt uw kelder van binnenuit waterdicht maken door kelderafdichting of kelder bekuipen. Hierbij brengen we een nieuwe waterdichte cementcoating aan op de wanden en vloer van uw kelder. Deze coating zorgt ook voor een goede afdichting van de kimnaden, waardoor uw kelder volledig waterdicht wordt.
Options for waterproofing the basement:
- Liquid coatings: Epoxy or bituminous layers form a seamless, waterproof barrier against moisture after curing.
- Waterproof membranes: Membranes applied to walls and floors provide additional protection against moisture and groundwater pressure.
- Drainage systems: A drainage system drains groundwater, reduces water pressure and prevents further moisture problems.
4. Extra vochtbehandelingen
Kelders zijn vaak slecht geventileerde ruimtes met weinig tot geen luchtcirculatie. Afhankelijk van de situatie in uw kelder, kan kelderafdichting of -drainage mogelijk onvoldoende zijn om vocht buiten te houden. Daarom stellen we in sommige gevallen ook een luchtbehandelingssysteem voor. Dit voorkomt condensatievocht en schimmels.

It is possible to do this yourself by applying coatings, for example. However, it is strongly recommended to call in an expert for more complex problems or if there is significant damage.
This depends on the method chosen. Indoor waterproofing can take a few hours to a day, while outdoor waterproofing, including excavation, can take several days.
This is where the wall and floor meet. In damp rooms, such as kitchens and bathrooms, the climbing seam often has additional reinforcement in the form of a silicone sealant or similar.
You can do this by installing drainage, waterproofing the basement with special coatings or membranes, and sealing cracks in walls and floors.
For a long-term solution, we recommend a water pump or drainage system.
It can be both! Tackling from the outside prevents water infiltration at the source, but requires digging.
From the inside is often simpler and involves coatings or membranes on walls and floors. The choice depends on the severity and accessibility of the problem.
This is often due to a combination of high humidity, poor ventilation and moisture entering the basement. These conditions provide an ideal breeding ground for mould.
Yes, schimmel in de kelder kan schadelijk zijn voor uw gezondheid en uw woning. Schimmelsporen kunnen mogelijk allergieën en ademhalingsproblemen veroorzaken of verergeren en de constructie van de kelder aantasten.
It is important to have mould removed immediately by a specialist. In addition, you need to address the cause, such as moisture problems, to prevent the mould from coming back.
According to research by Klimaatadaptie Nederland, annual precipitation in the Netherlands increased by 26% between 1910 and 2022, especially in winter. It is therefore important to waterproof your basement now because of increasing groundwater problems due to climate change.
Also, heavy rainfall puts extra strain on drainage, which can cause basements to flood faster, IPLO (Informatiepunt Leefomgeving) reports.
