Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing in Sykesville, MD

This homeowner in Sykesville, MD was looking to have a french drain installed that would connect to their sump pump. They called Quality 1st Basements who gave them a free quote and inspection. They installed WaterGuard to go around the perimeter of the basement and collect water seeping through the walls and direct it to the sump pump. A TripleSafe was installed to provide the ultimate protection against water intrusion with its three pumps. CleanSpace was applied to the walls to prevent the moist walls from affecting the basement air. Finally, Lawnscape was installed in the yard to expell water far from the foundation. Its flat and dark green design make mowing a breeze and blend into the lawn for curb-side appeal. The result was peace of mind for the customer, knowing their investment was safe.

WaterGuard Trench

A trench was dug to apply WaterGuard to the perimeter of the wall.

WaterGuard Installation

WaterGuard is applied under the floor slab but above the "mud zone" to keep it safe from clogging. A layer of concrete is laid on top of it, to seal it.

TripleSafe Sump Pump

This TripleSafe has three pumps; a main pump and two backup pumps that will switch on in the case of a power outage or an overflow of water, so your basement stays nice and dry.
