Waterproofing a Previously Flooded Basement, Nashua, NH

A homeowner in Nashua, New Hampshire had a lot of her belongings ruined after her basement flooded. This was a result of her existing sump pump failing. Without a working waterproofing system in place, this homeowner reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions in search of a permanently dry basement.

After conducting a free home inspection, our Design Specialist recommended installing WaterGuard perimeter drainage and a TripleSafe sump pump system in order to waterproof the basement. This waterproofing system keeps the basement dry all the time by intercepting water along the border of the foundation footing and diverting it to a basin, where the TripleSafe sump pump system then pumps it out of the home. Our installation crew installed the WaterGuard drainage system along the entire perimeter of the basement, ensuring that water would be captured along every inch of the foundation. Once cemented in place, it is barely even noticeable. After the basin is dug out, the TripleSafe sump pump system is installed. Our three-pump system, including our battery backup pump, guarantees that your sump pump system will never fail! An interior drainage line was attached to the TripleSafe, which was then connected to an exterior drainage line that went out of the home. This allows the water to safely exit the basement.

With this waterproofing system in place, the homeowner finally has the peace of mind that she was looking for!
