Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Bland, VA Basement Waterproofing
This basement in Bland, VA was having issues with water coming in after rain events. The water was making its was in where the wall and floor meet. Fortress Foundation Solutions was able to send our System Designer to visit the homeowners and conduct a solution for this issue.
The System Designer knew the best solution would be our WaterGuard System. This system is place on the footer of the home around the perimeter of the basement. The system catches the water that comes into the home and directs it to our TripleSafe Sump Pump System where the water is then pumped out of the home.
Pre-paring the area for the system
Our crew begins by creating a "trench" around the perimeter of the home. In this step the crew also creates an area for the Sump pump to be installed.
WaterGuard
This photo shows after the WaterGuard is installed. The crew then lays crushed drainage stone with the WaterGuard.
Final Product
Once the system is installed, the crew follows over the system with fresh cement. This not only protects the system, but it allows for a clean finish to the disrupted area.
