The TrenchDrain System keeps water out of the basement by catching it at the doorway and directing it away. It has a grated drain that collects water right at the entrance, then channels it through a trench to a drainage pipe or sump pump. This way, water won't seep into the basement and cause any damage.
We installed an exterior discharge line after waterproofing this basement to ensure any water collected by the system is safely directed away from the home. This prevents water from pooling near the foundation and keeps the basement dry and protected. It’s a simple but effective way to maintain the results of the waterproofing and avoid future issues.
In this Winston-Salem, NC home, our crew installed a full perimeter WaterGuard drainage system to stop water from seeping through the cinder block walls and floor joint. You can see how the new system sits neatly along the wall before being sealed with fresh concrete, directing any groundwater straight to the sump pump for removal.
This solution transforms a once damp and cluttered basement into a dry, protected space making it safe for storage and preventing future water damage. Another homeowner can now enjoy peace of mind thanks to our reliable waterproofing system built to last.
This Winston-Salem, NC basement was experiencing water intrusion along the walls and floor, causing moisture damage and tile deterioration. To permanently resolve the issue, our team installed an interior waterproofing system along the perimeter of the basement.
You can see the trench cut around the edge of the room, where drainage components were placed to collect water and direct it to the home’s sump pump. A clean wall liner was also installed to protect the walls and help control moisture.
This open and unprotected crawl space was a problem for the health of the home. We encapsulated it to keep the temperature more consistent and moisture out of it.
