Waterproofing A Finished Basement In Commack, NY

Challenge

The customer called for an estimate for waterproofing a finished basement, as she had water seeping through the floor. Two months later, after getting several estimates, she chose Healthy Basement Systems.

Solution

We installed a trench drain all around the perimeter of the main storage room, as well as our patented WaterGuard XL, and a WaterGuard Port (which allow easy inspection).

We installed a SuperSump pump to collect the water being drained by the trench drain, then attached an IceGuard and a LawnScape outdoors, to ensure drainage from the drains and the pump in all four seasons without difficulty.

The homeowner was delighted with our affordable price and fast installation, and won't ever have to worry about water seepage in her basement ever again!

BEFORE: Customer has water coming in between the wall joint and the floor. Every time it rained, she had to use the vacuum cleaner to collect the water to reduce damage to her items.

AFTER: The wall is cut to remove the damaged, moldy, rotted sheetrock and 2x4 plate. Then a trench is developed, our patented WaterGuard channel goes in. The trench is filled with gravel and the floor is restored flush with cement. The WaterGuard will catch all water before it reaches your basement.

AFTER: Our patented SuperSump will take all the water from the WaterGuard channel and pump it outside, away from your house.

AFTER: Many floods in homes are caused by plumbing issues. As a precaution, a TrenchDrain is installed inside the utility room which is connected to the WaterGuard. In the event of utility room equipment failure, the rest of the basement will still stay dry.
