This Elkhart, Indiana family has a common bacteria growing in their soil called iron ochre. It can appear as a rusty colored slime on your floors, along your walls, or even in your sump pit. It can wreak havoc on plumping, discharges, and drain tiles designed to navigate water away from your foundation. We had to specially design this basements waterproofing solution to accommodate the amount of water they bring in and to also allow a way to clean that iron ochre from their system.
This Kosciusko County, Indiana customer has a walkout basement that would get water seepage in heavy rains. Water would spill in under the door. We installed a Trench Drain to capture that water.
As a baseboard drainage system, DryTrak® installs above the floor and along the inside perimeter of the basement.
If you have a monolithic foundation, meaning that your floor and footing were poured as one piece, this is the only drainage system that's appropriate. DryTrak® is also perfect for other applications when jackhammering the floor is not an option-- in basements with radiant heat, for example.
This customer in Cassopolis, Michigan found a puddle of water along her finished basement. She called us out for a free estimate and we found that she had hairline cracks along her poured foundation walls. We sealed those cracks with Epoxy Crack Injections, and those come with a life-time transferable warranty.
This family was referred to us by a previous customer. Their finished basement would take on water at the cove joint along the exterior walls. We installed a Flangeless WaterGuard perimeter system to capture the seepage that came in.
