Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Waterproofing - Hurt, VA
This homeowner in Hurt, VA called Fortress Foundation Solutions with concerns of water in the basement. Water was coming in to the basement where the wall and floor meet, the water would puddle in multiple areas.
Our System Designer, Caleb Stone was able to visit with the homeowners and provide them with a solution that would resolve this water issue. Caleb suggested our WaterGuard system. This system sits on the footer of the home and directs the water to our sump pump. The water that is sent to the sump pump is then directed out of the home through an outside discharge.
Our Foreman, Tj and his crew installed this system. The crew began by prepping the perimeter of the basement for the WaterGuard, they also prepared the lowest area of the basement for the sump pump. One the WaterGuard and Sump were installed the crew then placed the outside discharge. Finally the crew covered the area with crushed drainage stone and covered the area with fresh cement for a clean finish.
