Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Fixing Wall Cracks and Installing a Drainage System in Ulster Park, NY

A basement in Ulster Park, NY was suffering from wall cracks and needed a drainage system to direct any water coming in away from the house. The soil that surrounds a home is usually filled with water, and wall cracks can allow the water to seep in if they go untreated. To begin tackling this problem we installed our WaterGuard drainage system, which rests below the floor slab and on top of foundation footing. We installed the WaterGuard this way so it would be above the mud zone, aka the area where it typically gets clogged by dirt and debris. This system is designed to collect any water that finds its way through the basement walls, making sure your basement stays dry and water-free! To address the cracks in the walls, the team installed our trusted FlexiSpan product. It is a state-of-the-art polyurethane sealant that does not dry out or crack and is specifically designed to adjust to the natural movement of your foundation. Even if your foundation slightly moved, you would still have a completely waterproof seal! Once our team finished this job, the homeowner could rest knowing their basement would be a safe and dry environment.
