This Powell, OH basement had water damage beneath an exposed drainage pipe. Mid-State Basements Inspector Mitch Mink took a look and came up with a creative solution. Mitch recomended that Foreman Brent Lopez first seal the pipe to ensure it's not leaking. After that, the crew drilled weep holes beneath the pipe and used the WellDuct Window Drain to direct the water to the below ground waterproofing system already installed.
This egress window was causing moisture to get into the home and a draft to make its way though. The homeowner tried to combat this by placing towels along the window, but knew they needed a more permanent solution.
A before and after look at this basement waterproofing project in Powell, OH!
The WaterGuard system is installed inside the basement along the perimeter to effectively capture wall and floor seepage before it reaches the basement floor. Water enters the system via inlet holes and flows through the drainage pipe to the sump pump. The UltraSump comes with a back-up battery to ensure your sump pump keeps working even if the power goes out.
We installed a new SuperSump Plus system in this Delaware, OH home! The SuperSump includes a powerful Zoeller ⅓ horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head out of your basement.
