Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing a Flooded Finished Basement, Lowell, MA

A homeowner in Lowell, Massachusetts recently had his finished basement flood. As a result, this homeowner had to demo his basement walls and flooring. Water seepage would still occur every time there were heavy rains. In order to protect his basement and be able to restore it to what it once was, he reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions. Our Design Specialist, Debra Rayborn, suggested installing WaterGuard perimeter drainage, feed line, TripleSafe sump pump system, SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, and EverLast wall restoration. This waterproofing system captures water at the border of the foundation without contact of the basement walls or floor, and delivers it to the sump pump, where it is then pumped out of the house through an exterior discharge line. The SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was installed to the sump pump system to alleviate moisture in the basement, creating healthier air to the home. Once the waterproofing system was in place, EverLast walls were installed in place of where the original walls were demoed. The homeowner can now take back his finished basement knowing that it will remain dry all the time!
