WaterGuard in a Finished Basement
In order to install WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement, the walls had to be removed a few inches from the ground. When completed the walls will be fixed and the basement will stay dry.
Draining Any Water Seepage
This big finished basement had a few rooms in it and WaterGuard needed to be installed along all perimeter walls.
Keeping the Basement Dry
The WaterGuard system is installed inside the basement along the perimeter to effectively capture wall and floor seepage before it reaches the basement floor. Water enters the system via inlet holes and flows through the drainage pipe to the sump pump.
WaterGuard Around the Perimeter
The WaterGuard Drainage System goes around the perimeter of the basement to direct any water coming in from the walls to the sump pump.
WaterGaurd Darin to Sump Pump
This is where the WaterGuard drain meets the sump pump, allowing watter to flow directly without ever entering the basement.
In-Ground Drain
To install this in-ground drainage system, we remove a portion of the basement floor around the perimeter to collect any water and direct it to the sump pump.
Draining Water to the Sump Pump
Before we cover the drain up, this is what it looks like! This section of the drain is going to the sump pump.
