Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Water Leaking from Basement Wall in Saint Louis, MO Eliminated with WaterGuard
A basement in Saint Louis, MO was having problems with water leaking down the walls. This water was causing mold to grow, and damaging the wood framing. To solve this issue, Woods installed the WaterGuard Perimeter Drainage System. These pipes intercept water at the wall and floor joint of the basement and drain it towards the sump system, which has been installed with an UltraSump System so it will continue to pump the water out even if the power goes out, thanks to the battery backup. Lastly, a partial CleanSpace Wall System was installed to prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls. this will also drain any wall leaks down to WaterGuard. This basement will stay dry and clean for years to come!
