Bowing Basement Walls
The large stair-stepping and horizontal cracks in the basement wall are the most visible signs that a larger structural issue was at hand. If you also looked at them at a right angle, you could start to see the inward movement they were facing.
Added Wall Stabilization
By adding several I-Beams along the walls in Barbara's basement, we helped stop further inward movement. This stabilization will help ensure the problem won't continue to get worse over time!
Bright and Clean Basement Walls
These rigid plastic panels not only transformed the look of Barbara's basement but also created a vapor barrier on her basement walls to block water vapor and humidity!
A Discrete Drainage System
The best way to keep Barbara's basement dry all the time was to install a full perimeter of the WaterGuard drainage system! The drainage channel is hidden under a layer of concrete; only the top edge of the wall flange is visible, so Barbara will hardly know it's there, working to keep her basement dry!
A Super New Sump Pump
The best way to complete this waterproofing system installed in Barbara's basement is to add a reliable SuperSump! This system will capture any water that flows its way and ensure it's effectively pushed up and out of her basement.
