The home-owners in Lynchburg,VA called Fortress Foundation Solutions due to water coming into the basement. Our System Designer, Jamey Elder, was quick to assess the issue and come up with a perminate solution.
To combat this water our Foreman, Cole Mauck, and his production team installed our WaterGuard long lasting interior perimeter drainage system. The WaterGuard system sits on the top of the footing in order to prevent clogging from mud or debris. The system works by capturing water seepage from the floors and walls before it has a chance to damage anything. Once the water is trapped in the drain it is immediately directed to the sump pump. The sump pump then removes the water from the home keeping your basement clean and dry!
