How can I make a damp basement dry?

When it comes to keeping your damp basement dry, installing a dependable basement waterproofing system is key. An interior drainage system and sump pump work in tandem to keep water out of the basement and away from your foundation while a dehumidifier keeps the air dry and prevents condensation from forming on walls, ceilings, and windows.

Waterproofing Project in Ansted, WV

Connie F. had water intrusion in her basement. The customer's goal was to keep the basement dry all of the time. The common cause of water intrusion in a basement hydrostatic pressure; the soil around a homes foundation soaks up water causing the soil to expand and put pressure on the foundation walls. Hydrostatic pressure causes cracks and water will work its way into any cracks or openings it can find. Our Solution Specialist, Geoff M. quoted a full perimeter waterproofing system with BrightWall, and a sump pump. We successfully waterproofed the basement, providing peace of mind for this customer.
