Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Wall Crack Solutions in Hillsboro, Illinois

A homeowner in Hillsboro, IL contacted our waterproofing company because water was seeping into the basement through a crack in the wall in the basement. We met with the owner for a free estimate. After discussing their waterproofing options, we installed a perimeter waterproofing system to capture any wall seepage coming from the cracks, a new sump pump, and underground discharge line. Here are some job progress photos of the work we completed.

Before Waterproofing

You can see the water sitting on the top of the basement with no where to go and no way out.

Discharge System

Our underground discharge system which was tied into the downspouts. The caps on the two lines on the right allow water to escape the pipes in the event the pipes freeze or get blocked somehow.
