Questions & Answers
Could this be used around a horse stall? Will a horse stepping on it tear it and would the substance coming out be toxic
Asked by pat October 12, 2018We use this around our horse barn. Horses have stepped on ....I would think over time it will break down and need to be replaced.
Does this absorb water not just block it? I have flooding inside my garage. Where would I put it?
Asked by Ehonig1967 April 20, 2020They mostly block it.
Can this be placed inside a garage door to prevent water from coming in and absorbing any water t...
Asked by Julie August 8, 2018Absolutely! I bought Quick Dam for this very reason. However, placing the product on the outside of the door prevents water from entering much more effectively. I live in FL and when the huge storms come through, water used to leak under the garage door and into the garage and owould run for towels. Since putting the product on the outside of the door, as mentioned above, really works!
If use at the end of a driveway can you drive over one fully inflated
Asked by Kim November 16, 2018Would not recommend - it will bust a hole and/or squeeze out the silica gel.
how thick / tall are they when fully soaked?
Asked by Craig May 26, 2018Approx 4”. You can stack theses if you need more height - also, Home Depot sells the Quick Dam sand bag (6 per package). I have used both successfully to keep water from entering my barn. I have even presoaked them prior to a heavy rain - but you don’t have too.
I have a basement with a high water table, and during heavy rains water leaks in through the floo...
Asked by Danoma February 28, 2018The only job for these water barriers is to soak up water -- indoors or outside. I use mine outside. The packaging shows a picture of barriers stacked on each other. I would not hesitate to use these barriers for the need you described.
After rain and waters subside can this product be stored and used again?
Asked by skitzo2 March 2, 2014Yes
We just finished our basement and now we notice the grout on the floor is getting wet from water ...
Asked by Hindsight January 17, 2019The quick dam flood barrier will absorb the water. I use one inside my garage where the door meets the pavement. The driveway has a slight slope which causes all snow/ice melt or rain to run to the garage.
Are they reusable
Asked by PaTiger June 9, 2019Yes. Make sure you let them dry out and then put them away...cannot leave out in sun....it will shorten their life.
After use
Asked by Patty January 31, 2019You have to place them in a dry place, preferably in the sun. It takes a while for them to dry. Just ignore them and let them dry.
