Blair Burke from Greenfrog Waterproofing joins Regina League to uncover the hidden world of home moisture management in Charlotte. What began as Blair's teenage experience building trail systems in the New Mexico mountains evolved into a thriving waterproofing business built on comprehensive solutions rather than quick fixes.
Did you know Charlotte receives more rainfall than Seattle? This surprising fact shapes our region's unique waterproofing challenges. Blair explains that while Seattle gets constant drizzle, Charlotte's heavy downpours create intense water pressure around foundations. He shares critical warning signs homeowners should watch for: musty odors after returning from vacation, hardwood floors that begin to cup (edges rising higher than centers), and structural cracks appearing around doors and windows.
Perhaps most alarming is Blair's revelation about indoor air quality – approximately 40% of the air we breathe on our first floor comes directly from our crawl spaces. This "stack effect" means whatever mold, moisture, or contaminants exist beneath your home are being circulated through your living spaces. Green Frog Waterproofing stands out by addressing the complete water management picture, from roof gutters to yard grading to crawl space encapsulation.
"If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail," Blair explains, contrasting his comprehensive approach with competitors who offer limited solutions that maximize their profit through recurring maintenance. His team undergoes extensive training in mold remediation, stormwater management, and building science to develop customized solutions that might include gravitational drainage systems rather than mechanical pumps when possible.
