Photo Album: Waterproofing an Unfinished Basement in Providence, RI
A homeowner in Providence, RI sent us a message because their basement had water seeping into it when it rained. Our crew started by installing our CleanSpace vapor barrier along the walls to corral seepage into the WaterGuard drainage system which was installed along the floor's entire perimeter to collect groundwater. They also set up our SaniDry XP dehumidifier in the basement to control humidity year-round. The water collected in the drainage system and dehumidifier is channeled into the TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe sends all of the collected water out of the basement through the two discharge lines. On the outside of the home, the IceGuard discharge line system was installed to prevent water from flooding back into the basement if a discharge line ever clogs or freezes. Now the homeowner can have peace of mind next time it rains.
