Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Damaged Basement Waterproofed in Butler, IL
Water was coming down the walls of a basement in Butler, IL, causing damage to them. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Basement Wall system was first installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls and drain any leaks to the WaterGuard System. This perimeter drainage system will catch wall seepage and drain it toward the TripleSafe Sump Pump System, draining water from WaterGuard and below the basement and discharging it from the house. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system, which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. Next, the IceGuard Sump Pump Discharge System was installed. The patented design of this system automatically allows water to escape through its perforations when pipe terminations are blocked, usually by ice or snow. Lastly, a LawnScape Outlet was installed. This connects the discharge lines to a special extension sending water away from the foundation while camouflaging the end of the pipe. Thanks to these systems, this basement will now remain dry all the time!
Wall Damage
Water has been entering this basement and damaging the wall.
Wall and Drainage Systems
CleanSpace will drain any wall seepage down to WaterGuard, which will direct this water to the sump pump.
Sump Pump
The TripleSafe combines three pumps in one unit to offer homeowners ultimate protection in the basement when leaks or flooding occurs.
Discharge Lines
IceGuard adds a drain at the base of the house to protect the system from backing up in the case of a sump pump discharge point that is clogged by snow or ice.
Discharge Outlet
LawnScape will extend the downspout with a system that lies even with or below the ground to add a subtle, noninvasive drainage system to the yard that will not clog up and cease to do its job.
