Replacing Sump System
Using an old sump pump can lead to several risks, including the potential for mechanical failure due to worn-out parts. This increases the likelihood of basement flooding during heavy rain, which can result in costly water damage and mold growth. Additionally, outdated models may lack the efficiency and capacity of newer pumps, leaving this home vulnerable in severe weather conditions.
Leaky Basement Wall
Basement wall leaks are often caused by poor drainage systems, such as clogged gutters or downspouts that direct water towards the foundation. Additionally, hydrostatic pressure can build up in the soil around the foundation, forcing water through cracks or gaps in the walls. Lastly, improper grading that slopes towards the house instead of away from it can also lead to water seeping into the basement.
Interior Drainage System
Waterguard is a drainage system designed to prevent basement flooding by collecting water that seeps through foundation walls and directing it to a sump pump. This system is installed along the perimeter of the basement floor, effectively capturing any water before it can accumulate and cause damage. By having a Waterguard system in place, these homeowners can protect their basements from water damage, mold growth, and structural issues, ensuring a dry and safe environment.
Sealing Drainage System
The sealing process for the drainage system involves applying a layer of concrete over the WaterGuard drainage channels. This ensures that water is effectively directed into the system without leaking into the basement. By sealing the system, it enhances its efficiency and protects the basement from potential water damage.
SuperSump Pump System
This system helps to prevent basement flooding by pumping out any excess water from the basement.
TripleSafe Sump Pump
TripleSafe sump pump systems provide three levels of protection, including a Primary Sump Pump, Secondary Sump Pump, and Battery Backup Sump Pump. This system is designed to provide continuous protection against water damage caused by flooding. It also provides peace of mind knowing that their is protected in the event of a power outage.
Discharge Line
Water collected in the sump systems will drain to the discharge line to be drained out of the pumps and away from the foundation to prevent re-entry.
