CSSW’s Support Building Envelope Durability
In large existing buildings, unwanted moisture from outside can seep through foundations, walls, roofs and openings. Resulting leaks enable erosion, freeze damage and material rot compromising structural integrity. However, accurately finding and sealing at-risk areas is far from easy.
CSSWs give commercial builders, repair contractors and property managers advanced on-site testing paired with investigative skills to chase water seepage visible or hidden. This prevents assumptions allowing more degradation. They supply accurate priority setting of problems, detailed improvement suggestions, and oversight ensuring installers follow specifications.

Comprehensive Leak Investigations
When a CSSW professional surveys a property, they provide an accurate assessment of any water infiltration issues and the root causes behind them. Their report will include a full conditions survey, highlighting areas of immediate and potential water damage, as well as recommendations for waterproofing repairs, replacements or installations needed to protect your building.
In particular, a CSSW surveyor can identify:
- Sources of moisture intrusion based on stains or other forensic evidence
- Specific waterproofing failure modes (e.g. membrane degradation, inadequate flashing details, etc.)
- Related building defects that can allow or exacerbate leaks
- The urgency, scope and specifications for recommended waterproofing solutions
- Cost estimates for repairs to help you plan and budget effectively
Using CSS For Confidence Converting Basements
Converting basements instantly makes usable space in our homes. Yet with basements being mainly underground, immense water pressures mean major vulnerability to flooding.
With so many complex products and methods out there nowadays, inadequately or wrongly waterproofed basements risk major flooding issues, poor health conditions, or cancelling a home’s structural guarantee.
That’s why we recommend CSSW-guided plans. A CSSW-qualified inspector offers thorough preparation in below-ground waterproofing plus standards-following so owners gain assurance of reliable systems before sizable construction.
