Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Stopping Water Intrusion with WaterGuard Drainage System in Staatsburg, NY

Water was coming in through the walls in a homeowner’s basement and something needed to be done about it. The windows in the basement also showed signs of leaking, since there were water stains on the walls underneath them. The gutters had plants and trees growing in them as well, leaving the water with only one place to go – the basement. The homeowner contacted our team at The Basement Transformer to see how we could help them solve this problem. Our team assessed the situation and determined that our WaterGuard drainage system would be the answer. It is the ultimate product designed for collecting any water that comes in through the walls and directs it back to your sump pump system.

Making Room for the WaterGuard

First our team begins jackhammering the concrete around the perimeter to make room for the WaterGuard. This system installs quickly and easily, with minimal invasion to the concrete floor.

WaterGuard Installtion in Progress

Our team began installing the WaterGuard within the sections that they jackhammered away. This patented and award-winning drainage system rests in a bed of drainage stone on top of the foundation footing. This is so that it is kept out of the mud zone, where it could potentially become clogged with dirt or debris.

WaterGuard Installation Complete

The concrete floor has been restored and the WaterGuard is now permanently in place and ready to collect any water that seeps through the basement walls.
