Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Dry Basement Near Sterling, VA
A homeowner near Sterling, VA, called Fortress Foundation Solutions after dealing with water in their basement for 10 years! Getting older, they could not clean up the mess every time it rained. System Designer, Paul Heckman, met with them offering a permanent solution and they agreed. Clarence Copeland 'Cope' was soon at their home with his crew installing our WaterGuard drainage system, including a Triple Safe Sump Pump. Now this couple can enjoy their home without the hassle of water clean up.
Basement Perimeter Trench
A trench is carefully jack hammered around the perimeter of the basement.
WaterGuard Drainage
The WaterGuard is then placed into the trench with crushed stone. All water entering the home will be drained away to the Triple Safe Sump Pump.
Concrete covers the trench
Concrete is then smoothed over the trench. Once dry, flooring can be placed over top.
