In mid Wisconsin it's not unusually for homes to see a lot of flooding due to the high water tables there. For this customer that was also the case and our solution was to pour a new floor over the existing to raise up the floor not allow the water tables to flood his basement. It is now a dry usable basement!
This elementary school in Jefferson Wisconsin has experienced many water issues from rain over the years. After many visits to the school to figure out with the contractor Findorff what the best design and route to take would be it was decided that a floor pour would be the best. Water guard and drainage matting is all placed down first so that the new floor can be poured over. The whole school is experiencing a major uplift and the basement was part of that plan! No more water in this basement!
This home received a major upgrade with the installation of a large XL RockWell® egress window. this created a brighter and more open basement while adding a safe emergency exit. The finished result brings in abundant natural light and transforms the space into a more comfortable and functional living area.
