In fact, most people with diverticulosis do not have symptoms. However, diverticulosis can sometimes cause unexplained painful cramps, bowel movement disturbances, and blood in the stool. The narrow opening of a diverticulum can bleed, sometimes heavily, into the intestine and out through the rectum.
Our first step in waterproofing your crawl space is to create a perimeter drainage channel along the interior edge of your foundation walls. Any water entering from your floor (or through the walls themselves) is collected in this drainage system, which is pitched downwards to a sump pump.
To combat moisture in the crawl space, a vapor barrier or encapsulation system can be installed. âEncapsulating the whole crawl space is the best bet,â says Mike Hogemson, owner of Standard Water Control, a basement and crawl space waterproofing company based in Crystal, Minn.
