Photo Album: Basement Leaks During Heavy Rain Repair in Dunbarton, NH

When the homeowner from Dunbarton, NH, faced the challenge of water leaks during heavy rains and the fear of flooding while away, we stepped in. Our tailored solution included the installation of WaterGuard for perimeter drainage, a TripleSafe Sump Pump to efficiently manage water, and IceGuard to prevent blockages due to freezing. As seen in the photo gallery, each step of our process is aimed at ensuring a dry, safe basement. Through our reliable solutions, peace of mind is restored.

WaterGuard Trenching

The interior perimeter of the foundation was excavated to allow space for the WaterGuard system to be installed.

TrenchDrain Trenching

The installation crew chipped out concrete around utilities and the bulkhead entrance to allow space for the TrenchDrain surface drainage system to be installed.

WaterGuard System Set

WaterGuard is placed within crushed stone to collect water and properly have it flow to the sump basin.

TrenchDrain System Set

TrenchDrain is connected to WaterGuard, capturing water at the foundation's surface and directing it to the sump basin. The photo shows TrenchDrain being used to redirect water away from utilities.

TrenchDrain is also utilized in front of the bulkhead steps since WaterGuard is unable to be installed in this location.

TripleSafe Connected to WaterGuard

A sump basin is designed to collect water. The TripleSafe system, equipped with a primary, secondary, and battery-powered backup pump, ensures that water at any level is consistently expelled from the home.

All systems have been securely cemented, enhancing the basement's aesthetic appeal.

Exterior Discharge Line with Freeze Prevention

Water is expelled from the home through a discharge line. To prevent freezing in the pipe during severe winters, an IceGuard anti-freeze system is attached to the discharge line. A bubbler pot is installed at the end of the line to ensure more efficient water disposal and to avoid water pooling on the lawn. After installation, the line is buried underground to preserve the lawn's visual appeal.
