Photo Album: Leaky and Bowing basement in Evansville, IN
In Evansville, Indiana a homeowner reach out to Healthy spaces needing a quote. His basement had water leaking in due to a rainstorm that happened recently. During the inspection, stair-step cracking on the walls was present which was partly the culprit behind the water leaking in. The foundation needed to be repaired along with waterproofing the walls and installing a drainage system.
The WaterGuard system was installed to catch any water that seeped through the walls. It will then carry the water toward the SuperSump pump. This handy system is covered with cement while flooring can be laid on top for a finished look. CleanSpace was put on the walls to protect the vapor barrier and direct water vapor to the WaterGuard. Two separate foundation repair products were put in to fix inwards bowing on the lower halves of the walls or on the upper parts. The GeoLock Channel Anchors and GeoLock Wall Anchors were the best choices for this issue. Once the project was completed, the homeowner was safe to store items in his basement again!
