Vapor Barrier
We installed a vapor barrier on this wall because of the water seepage coming through the cracks. This white 20 mil poly sheet is installed from the top of the wall to the bottom and is tied into our drainage system.
Peekaboo
In case the sump pump discharge line freezes or becomes blocked, the white caps you see on top allow water to escape.
Trench Drain
We install trench drains at entrances or stairs of basements to keep water from making its way in. The trench drain installed here is tied directly to our perimeter waterproofing system.
Where Water Leaks
This owner tried sealing the cracks where water was leaking from. If you look to the left of the door you can see the foam in the crease.
Basement Wall Paneling
Designed to drain water and stop water vapor, BrightWall® is a bright white, all-plastic basement wall paneling. It also gives an unfinished basement a clean look.
Perimeter Water System
Our system is installed around the perimeter of the basement to capture any water before it hits your basement floor. Here the system was just installed with concrete poured over it for a discreet look.
New Sump Pump
We installed a new sump pump system that includes 2 sump pumps and stands, an alarm, and a discharge line to direct water away from the house.
Job Completed
Another dry-time basement with happy homeowners!
