Next, the homeowner awaited the arrival of our Design Specialist, Jason. A few days later, Jason promptly arrived at the home and began the thorough inspection. During the inspection, Jason noted that several areas were suffering from water intrusion. To prevent the water intrusion from continuing, Jason recommended installing a perimeter interior drain system. Knowing this was the best plan of action, the homeowner decided to go ahead with Jason's recommendations. Next, Jason worked with the homeowner to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Jesus, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the inspection. First, Jesus and his crew began by securing WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. Once the WaterGuard was secured, Jesus and his crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew. If you notice your home is suffering from a simliar issue, sign up for your FREE estimate today
