What Is A Cold Joint?
Cold joints occur during the construction process when there’s a delay between concrete pours, preventing the layers from forming a seamless bond. These joints are common in basements and foundations and may seem insignificant initially.
Signs Your Cold Joints Need Attention
-
Visible water stains or leaks around seams.
-
Increased humidity or musty odors in the basement.
-
Fine cracks developing along the seam line.
-
Damp or wet spots near the foundation wall.
If any of these issues sound familiar, it’s time to address the problem before it worsens.
