Photo Album: Basement Waterproofing in Evansville, IN

A homeowner in Evansville, IN, was having a water leakage issue in her basement. During heavy rain, water would be the most apparent in the basement. As the problem was increasing over the few months, it worried the homeowner that her keepsakes would be damaged if the basement was not waterproofed anytime soon. The water leakage was caused by a home settlement. Although home settlement is a common thing, it does not mean it is a GOOD thing. The homeowner was ready to create a healthy space without the possibility of water puddles on the floor of the basement. Every waterproofing system needs a good, sturdy sump pump. The UltraSump pump was installed into the ground of the basement. It pumps water automatically, without anyone needing to empty the water by hand. It has a pump alarm to alert homeowners of potential flooding or pump failure. In order for the sump pump to receive water, it enters into the WaterGuard system. The WaterGuard is placed on top of the clean stone that's in a trench built alongside the walls. Cement is poured over the WaterGuard for a finished look. Any water that enters the WaterGuard is traveling to the UltraSump, where the sump disposes of the water outdoors. A system such as this gives homeowners peace of mind that their home is safe.
