Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing a Basement in Champaign, IL

This homeowner's basement in Champaign, IL, was suffering from water damage, so first a WaterGuard perimeter drainage system was installed. This runs along the foundation walls collecting any water that may leak in from outside. This then drains the water to the TripleSafe sump pump, which powerfully pumps the water out and away from the house. This particular sump pump is also equipped with the UltraSump battery backup, which kicks on in case of a power outage. This will keep the basement dry even if the home loses power. The water then exits through the IceGuard discharge lines, which are also equipped with an extra exit in case the pipes get clogged or frozen, so there's no chance the water can re-enter the house. Finally, the water is drained out of the LawnScape discharge outlet far away from the foundation, keeping the water far from the house and helping keep the basement dry.

Water Damage Along Foundation

This homeowner's basement walls had suffered from years of water damage, and could cause more damage to the foundation if not treated.

Perimeter Drainage System Installed

The WaterGuard perimeter drainage system was installed along the foundation walls to collect and drain away the water that leaks into the basement.

Sump Pump Installed

This TripleSafe sump pump was installed to pump the water out of the house. This is also outfitted with the UltraSump battery backup, which kicks on in case of a power outage, ensuring that the sump pump will still work without power.

Discharge Line Installed

This IceGuard discharge line was installed outside the house, where the drained water exits. There's an additional exit in case of clogged or frozen pipes.

Discharge Outlet Installed

The LawnScape discharge outlet was installed far away from the house so when the water drains out of it, it will not re-enter the house. This will help prevent more leaking in the basement.
