How WaterGuard Can Keep Your Basement Dry and Healthy

If you have a basement on Long Island you know the importance of keeping your basement dry and healthy. When your basement leaks or floods it makes the basement vulnerable to mold, mildew, odors, structural damage, and health problems for you and your family. Introducing a basement waterproofing system into a leaking basement is a great way to turn any leaking basement into dry usable space. One of the industry's most effective, popular, and innovative products is our interior drainage system called WaterGuard, our WaterGuard product is used throughout the world's largest basement waterproofing contracting network. WaterGuard comes with several advantages over other drainage systems, in this blog we'll discuss some of the advantages and why you should choose WaterGuard when waterproofing your basement.

How WaterGuard Works

Our WaterGuard system works by our crew coming in and jackhammering a trench around the perimeter of the basement so they can install the WaterGuard below the concrete slab. The way this works is by our WaterGuard system capturing water from both the walls and floors before it can enter the basement and directs the water to our TripleSafe sump pump system, which pumps any water in the system out of the basement and away from the foundation.  Our WaterGuard's unique design:

- a wall flange that collects any water seepage from the walls and directs it down into our WaterGuard system before having the chance of reaching your dry basement floors.

- holes in the back of the WaterGuard system allows groundwater to easily enter the drainage system.

WaterGuard Advantages

Some benefits WaterGuard has over traditional drainage systems:

- Once our WaterGuard system has been installed it's almost invisible with only the top of the wall flange visible and no visible trenches to worry about.

- Interior drainage systems are less expensive and intrusive than exterior drainage systems as there's no need to dig up your yard, remove landscaping, or expose the foundation to the elements.

- WaterGuard is designed to resist clogging from dirt, roots, or other debris due to its smooth surface that stops sediment from building up on it and allows for easy water flow.
