Photo Album: Garage Items Needs Protection From Water, Newington, NH
A homeowner in Newington, New Hampshire, had water entering their garage and threatening to damage personal items in the garage. Water had been entering from the joints in the concrete floor. The homeowner doesn't want the water to ruin anything in their basement so they decided to reach out to EFS for a free inspection. Our Design Specialist Jason recommended installing WaterGuard, a SuperSump, and NexusPro in the garage to prevent water from collecting on the floor.
Our production team began chipping out concrete on the right wall of the garage to install the WaterGuard so it can collect water and direct it to the sump pump. After the WaterGuard and SuperSump were installed the team then covered them in a thin layer of concrete to conceal them. Next, the team plumbed the sump pump and installed the drainage line to the exterior of the garage. Once the entire system was set up the team then used NexusPro to seal the joints in the concrete. The NexusPro will prevent water from seeping onto the garage floors.
