In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Kevin B., arrived at the home to provide the inspection. During the inspection, Kevin explained to the homeowner that a failed footing drain is one of the most common causes of a wet basement. When this fails, water saturates the soil surrounding the foundation. Water enters through the joints between the wall and the footing, and it is common to see water around those areas. To fix this issue, Kevin recommended WaterGuard, our top-of-the-line drain system that collects water at the perimeter of the basement and effectively sends it to the sump pump, TripleSafe, our elite sump system that comes with three levels of protection with one pump being a battery backup in case of power outages, CleanSpace, our vapor wall barrier that prevents water from permeating the walls, and IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line ejects water away in case the sump pump pipes freeze or become clogged. The homeowner was grateful for Kevin's explanation and decided to move forward with his suggestions.

In a couple of months, our Foreman, Gabriel R., and his crew arrived at the home to carry out the installation. They installed 1 TripleSafe sump system, 2 IceGuards, and 97ft of WaterGuard and CleanSpace. The installation was a complete success, and once they were done, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.
