Question 18

I bought a 1936 concrete home in Miami Florida in January in the dry season. The town has no storm drainage system( which I didn't know) and the property is in a flood zone. We are elevating the ground 18 inches with soil around the entire foundation, and grading a slow slope down away from the house. I want to waterproof the concrete foundation before we push the soil up against the house. What is the best material to use? I was told that an epoxy liquid would be good to coat on the foundation, but I have no idea if that's good. Thanks for any help you can provide. We don't have a basement, only a crawl space.

I applied the micro etch to concrete that had been power troweled. Afterward I found a tiny pit in the concrete (1/32").

The concrete was previously smooth as glass and I could not perceive any pits before hand at least, but they may have been there. Should I not leave the micro etch on as long as I did?
