Hi, I have a styrofoam foundation on my house and on one wall there is
a walkway outside at the same height as the basement floor. About 7
feet below the normal grade. The outer wall of the styrofoam
foundation has stucco on it and there is a gap of about 1/4-1/2 inch
between the bottom edge of the stucco and the outside walkway sidewalk
slab. I'm having a problem with water getting into my basement when it
rains. Any ideas on how to seal it up would be appreciated. Thanks.
Firs, you don't have a Styrofoam wall. You have either a wood, block or
concrete wall insulated with Styrofoam.
You can use caulk, roofing cement, blacktop patch, or any number of things
to direct the water away. Would be best to have a little bevel.
