Foundation Parging
Parging is used to protect and improve the aesthetic appeal of foundations, basement walls, exterior walls, and masonry chimneys. Parging is a process where a thin layer of mortar is applied to a concrete or masonry surface. The mortar is usually composed of cement, sand, and water. Parging is most commonly used to smooth out rough surfaces or to create a uniform look. It can also be used to repair cracks, fill in holes, and seal up joints and crevices. Parging can be applied with a trowel or brush and is often finished off with a sponge or brush to create a smooth finish. MN Plastering LLC applies foundation parging professionally to enhance concrete and masonry surfaces.

Types of Parging
There are three main types of parging: traditional, decorative, and waterproof.

- Decorative parging - used to create a more decorative finish and is usually composed of a mixture of cement, sand, and colored pigments.
- Waterproof parging - used to protect walls from moisture and is usually composed of a mixture of cement, sand, and a waterproofing agent.
Benefits of Parging: Decorative and Functional
Parging provides a number of benefits for both concrete and masonry foundations. It helps to protect the foundation from water damage, as well as from the elements such as wind and rain. Parging also helps to improve the appearance of the foundation, making it look more attractive and uniform. Additionally, parging helps to prevent water from seeping into the foundation, which can lead to major damage over time.
