Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Repairing and Waterproofing a Basement in Creve Coeur, MO
A foundation was cracking in Creve Coeur, MO, and water was coming down the walls. To solve These issues, GeoLock Wall Anchors were first installed. This system works to stop wall failure in its tracks by connecting the wall to the soil outside of the home. By anchoring the wall, it is reinforced and given greater stability. Next, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was 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. 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 stable and dry all the time!
