Wet Basement Conditions
Wet basement conditions are typically caused by several factors, including poor drainage, foundation cracks, and high water tables. When the ground around a home becomes saturated from heavy rainfall or melting snow, the excess water creates hydrostatic pressure against the foundation, forcing moisture through cracks, joints, and porous materials. Inadequate or clogged gutters, downspouts, or improper grading can also direct water toward the foundation instead of away from it.
WaterGuard Drainage System
Positioned above the foundation footing, WaterGuard avoids the common issues that arise with traditional French drains, such as debris buildup. It effectively captures water from the walls and floor, then channels it directly to the sump pump for efficient removal.
SuperSump Premier
Designed for high-performance, the SuperSump features a powerful primary pump capable of handling large volumes of water, ensuring quick and effective drainage. Its durable, airtight liner and secure lid help prevent debris from entering the pump and keep moisture contained.
CleanSpace Wall Panels
Made from durable, mold-resistant material, our CleanSpace Wall Panels block moisture, while their bright white surface enhances the appearance of the basement. The panels also redirect any water that accumulates behind them into the WaterGuard Drainage System, ensuring it's safely channeled away.
The Importance Of Waterproofing
Waterproofing a basement is crucial for protecting the home's foundation and preserving the overall integrity of the structure. Without proper waterproofing, water seepage can lead to mold growth, wood rot, and weakened foundation walls, potentially causing costly repairs.
