Solution
Upon contacting us, our team of waterproofing experts promptly arrived to inspect the basement and assess the extent of the water damage. After a thorough evaluation, we designed a customized waterproofing solution to address the root cause of the problem and protect the homeowner’s basement from future water intrusion. Our approach included the installation of our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to efficiently capture and redirect water away from the foundation, while our TrenchDrain System was installed at key areas to manage surface water around doorways and drains. We also added the SuperSump Premier Sump Pump, a powerful system designed to handle large amounts of water and keep the basement dry during heavy rains. The installation of these systems, along with our CleanSpace Wall Panels to provide a moisture-resistant barrier, immediately improved the basement’s conditions. The IceGuard Discharge Line System was also included to ensure the discharge line would remain clear and functional during cold weather. With the comprehensive waterproofing solution in place, the homeowner was thrilled to see a transformed basement—a dry, healthy, and inviting space that was now free of water issues. They gained peace of mind knowing their basement was well-protected from further water damage, allowing them to enjoy the space for years to come.
