Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing a Leaking Basement in Greenville, IL
Water was entering a basement in Greenville, IL, causing damage and concern. To solve this issue, the WaterGuard System was first installed. 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!
Leaking Water

Perimeter Drain
This drainage system is installed adjacent to the home and provides a channel that connects to the sump pump. Its design will drain any wall seepage without allowing dirt and debris from the floor to enter and clog the pipes.
Sump System
The TripleSafe combines three pumps in one unit to offer homeowners ultimate protection in the basement when leaks or flooding occurs.
Discharge Lines
IceGuard is located at the top of the discharge line to allow water to escape in case of water overflow or the pipes freeze.
Discharge Outlet
The LawnScape Outlet provides an escape for water that comes out of the drainage pipe with an additional camouflaging feature.
