Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement to Family Room Conversion - Elkton, MD

This homeowner from Elkton, MD had persistent water issues in their basement that kept it damp and unusable. Determined to turn it into a livable space, they invested in a full waterproofing system using WellDuct, TrenchDrain, WaterGuard, and an Access Well. WellDuct now directs wall seepage into the drainage system, while WaterGuard collects water along the perimeter. TrenchDrain protects their basement entryway from surface water, and the Access Well provides easy maintenance access and ventilation. The result is a dry, healthy basement that’s now home to a cozy family room.

Moisture Damage

The moisture coming through the window was causing damage to the basement.

WellDuct

WellDuct is a wall drainage system designed to tackle seepage from foundation walls by channeling water directly into a basement drainage system. Installed quickly and neatly, it provides an effective solution for homeowners dealing with damp or leaking walls, keeping basements dry, healthy, and ready for use.

TrenchDrain

TrenchDrain is a surface-level drainage system ideal for stopping water at entry points like basement stairways or exterior doors. Its grated, low-profile design captures and redirects water before it can enter your home, providing a crucial first line of defense against flooding and moisture intrusion.

WaterGuard

WaterGuard is an interior basement drainage system designed to sit just above the footing of your foundation, collecting water that seeps in through walls or under the floor. Unlike traditional French drains, WaterGuard won't clog with soil and is easily serviceable, making it a reliable, long-term solution for keeping your basement dry.

Access Well

An Access Well provides a clean, secure entry point to basement window wells, allowing for better ventilation, and natural light. It also helps keep out water, debris, and pests, protecting both the basement and the window area from damage and buildup.
