Cracked Floors
Cracks had developed on the basement floor because of the amount of water that would leak in and weaken the foundation.
Water Seeping Inside
Previously the homeowner had a CleanSpace barrier installed on the lower section of the wall to prevent water from leaking in. Unfortunately, this was only a temporary solution to a deep-rooted issue.
Shifting Walls
Due to the amount of water that would leak inside, this also affected the condition of the walls. Water had weakened the walls and caused them to shift and crack.
UltraSump Sump Pump
The first waterproofing system installed was an UltraSump sump pump that contains an emergency backup pump that will remove water if the primary pump fails or if the power goes out.
WaterGuards Installed
The new drainage system that was installed in the footing of the walls were WaterGuard drains. These drains will provide a system for water leaks to be collected by the UltraSump sump pump.
IceGuards on the Discharge Lines
On the outside of the basement also received a waterproofing solution. IceGuards were installed onto the discharge lines to prevent these lines from clogging or freezing which will prevent water from backing up back into the basement.
LawnScape Outlet
A LawnScape outlet was also attached to the discharge lines to direct the discarded water away from the home and into the yard.
