Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Foundation Repair in Concord, NH
A homeowner in Concord, New Hampshire is tired of spending so much time and energy cleaning water out of his basement. After originally noticing the problem in 2006, it has become way more frequent in the recent year. Looking to have a dry basement all the time, he reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions.
Our System Design Specialist, Victor Tapia, recommended installing WaterGuard perimeter drainage, TrenchGuard surface drainage, TripleSafe sump pump, and IceGuard discharge system. WaterGuard safely collects water around the perimeter of the basement and routes it to the sump pump. TrenchDrain connects to WaterGuard to maneuver water around obstructions where WaterGuard cannot be installed. The TripleSafe sump pump system handles water at all volumes, ensuring unwanted water gets pumped out of the home. IceGuard is attached to the exterior discharge line to ensure that water doesn't freeze when exiting the home.
This waterproofing system gives the homeowner peace of mind that his basement will always remain dry.
Basement Perimeter Drainage
WaterGuard is installed where the foundation floor meets the foundation wall in order to collect water from the outside wet soil.
Basement Surface Drainage
TrenchDrain was installed around the oil tank, stairs, and hot water heater to continue the flow of water to the sump pump.
TripleSafe Sump Pump System
This three-pump system handles water at all levels, even during a power outage!
Pipe Freezing Prevention
IceGuard is designed to let water flow freely, even during freezing temperatures. When an exterior discharge line freezes, there is a risk that water can get backed up and flood the basement.
Exterior Discharge Line Burial
The exterior discharge line provides the final destination for water outside of the basement. This is installed in a safe location where water poses no threat to the home. After installation, it is buried in the ground for a more appealing look.
