Buzzards Bay, MA Basement Makeover
Challenge
After purchasing this home in Buzzards Bay, MA, the owner noticed some slight dampness after a rain but didn’t think too much about it, hoping it was a one-off situation. After a few more rains and the dampness persisting, they then noticed the water seeping into the finished basement! They had an existing sump pump but it was clear that it wasn’t working for their space and they needed a better option to protect the whole basement.
Solution
Our inspector went over all the options on how we could protect this basement from the rainwater leakage they’ve experienced and even how we can help restore the finished parts of the basement that were damaged. The crew started with the waterproofing, installing a TripleSafe sump pump along with WaterGuard pipe around the basement. This combination will collect that rainwater and remove it from the basement. Then, to restore the space, the crew installed our EverLast Wall Restoration. The wall is mold-proof and washable, reliable for basements with a history of water seepage. They also installed Elite Plank flooring for a real wood finish, but without the risk of warping or rotting!
