Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing a Basement in Cahokia, IL

Water was entering a basement in Cahokia, IL, and the sump pump was failing to remove this water. To solve these issues, 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. This basement will now stay dry all the time thanks to these systems!
