Wet Finished Basement

Water intrusion has rendered this homeowner's basement inoperable. Observe the water damage evident on the foundation floor.

Basement Perimeter Drainage and Wall Demo

The installation team removed the bottom section of drywall and chiseled away the concrete around the basement's perimeter to accommodate the WaterGuard system.

Perimeter Drainage Finished Install

WaterGuard is designed to intercept water from the surrounding moist soil before it can infiltrate the basement. Once collected, the water is channeled to the TripleSafe Sump Pump. Following installation, the WaterGuard system is securely encased in concrete.

TrenchDrain Surface Drainage

Our TrenchDrain system was installed in the basement bathroom to redirect water away from the plumbing. It is connected to the WaterGuard system, ensuring a singular flow of water towards the sump pump.

New Tiling in Bathroom

Following the installation of WaterGuard and TrenchDrain in the bathroom, we completed the tiling, achieving an aesthetically pleasing finish.

TripleSafe Sump Pump Installation

Once WaterGuard channels water to the TripleSafe sump pump, the three-pump system ensures the removal of water from the home. It includes a primary, secondary, and battery-powered backup pump, providing homeowners assurance that high water levels will be managed at all times.

Preventing Frozen Pipes

IceGuard is attached to the discharge line to prevent the water in the pipes from freezing, thereby preventing the pipes from backing up and causing a basement flood.

Exterior Discharge Line

The exterior discharge line is routed to the woods to prevent water from seeping back towards the foundation walls. Once installed, the line is buried to maintain the lawn's aesthetic appeal.

Finished Basement Walls and Floor

The installation of the EverLast half wall and ThermalDry carpet has both restored and enhanced the basement's finished appearance. These improvements not only elevate the aesthetic appeal but also offer resistance to water and mold.
