Fortress Protects Your Home From Flooding From The Inside-Out
Basement flooding can cause major damage to your home, including issues like:
- Stained concrete
- Damaged drywall
- Soaked insulation
- Ruined appliances
- Mold growth
- Damage to personal property
Whether water is entering your home through a window, wall or floor cracks, a hatchway or stairway, our basement waterproofing services can ensure that property damage is minimized. We work from the inside-out, making your waterproofed home easier to access and service.
Fortress uses an interior drainage system called WaterGuard. This method of waterproofing has proven to have all of the benefits that homeowners and contractors have been looking for.
What is WaterGuard?
It is a specifically-designed piping system that is very efficient and long-lasting interior perimeter basement water proofing system. WaterGuard sits on top of the footing of the basement, instead of alongside of the footing. Why is this important? Wet dirt cannot get into the drain because it is on top of the mud, not inside of it.
Requirements of a good interior drainage system:
- Designed not to clog- sits on top of the footing (mud)
- Has a built in 3/8 – inch gap between the floor and the wall to drain wall leaks
- Does not rely on filter fabric
- Has a big drain outlet to the sump pump (which Fortress can also install)
- Will not cause structural damage to the foundation
