4 Things to Keep Your Basement Dry All the Time

While you can have water issues in your basement without rain, heavy rainfall can be detrimental to your basement. As soil around your foundation becomes soaked with water, it expands and puts pressure on your foundation. The water will then work its way through any opening available, including cracks and voids around pipes or windows.

Our trained system design specialists will design a solution that is best to keep your basement dry all the time. Here are a few solutions to keep your basement dry all the time.

WaterGuard®

• WaterGuard® is a perimeter drainage system that collects water that seeps in through the basement walls and guides it to a sump pump system. To ensure your basement stays dry all the time, WaterGuard® should be installed around the entire perimeter of the basement.

TripleSafe™

• The TripleSafe™ sump pump system is equipped with three pumps to ensure your basement stays dry all the time. It includes a main pump, backup pump, and battery-powered pump.

CleanSpace®

• Sometimes, water leaks into the basement through cracked foundation walls. In addition to repairing the walls, we have the solution to waterproof the basement. CleanSpace® is a vapor barrier that can be installed to the basement walls to guide water to the WaterGuard®. Because it is inorganic, CleanSpace® does not support mold growth.

SaniDry™

• Lastly, to keep your basement dry all the time, install a dehumidifier. If the humidity in your basement is dry, moisture may begin to collect on your basement floors and walls, and eventually cause mold. The SaniDry Sedona is the solution to keep moisture out and keep your home comfortable.
