An Ewing, NJ homeowner noticed water was seeping into their basement, so they contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems for a solution. When waterproofing the basement you need to install a channel for water to flow from the ground or wall to the sump pump. We installed the WaterGuard French Drain to help collect and direct the water. WaterGuard is installed above the footing of the foundation to prevent clogging and damage.
