WaterGuard Design
The first waterproofing system installed was a french drainage system called WaterGuard. WaterGuard drains are installed into the footing of the basement walls to collect and direct water leaks towards the sump pump system.
Waterproofed Basement
Now, the basement is completely waterproofed.
The Difference of WaterGuard
Unlike conventional French drains that are installed outside the foundation or alongside the footing, WaterGuard drainage piping is installed inside the basement and won't clog with silt or plant roots.
Leaking Basement
Water was leaking into the basement at the floor/wall joint.
