Damp Floors Waterproofed in Plymouth, IA

A homeowner in Plymouth, IA, noticed water leaking into his basement and was concerned it would lead to long-term damage to his home. Unsure of the cause of the issue, he began looking for basement waterproofing contractors in the area and found us. The homeowner then contacted our Appointment Center to schedule his FREE basement waterproofing estimate.

In about a week, our Design Specialist, Ryan M., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, Ryan noticed that the puddles of water were around the perimeter of the basement. He explained to the homeowner that a failed footing drain could be the issue why the homeowner is facing a leaking basement. When a footing drain fails and becomes clogged, water saturates the soil surrounding the foundation and enters through the footing and the wall, beneath the footing, or cracks on the walls. To effectively fix this issue, Ryan recommended WaterGuard, our perimeter grain system that collects water and sends it to the sump pump, TripleSafe, our elite sump pump system that comes with 3 pumps in one unit, IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line that allows water to escape in case the sump pump pipes freeze, and CleanSpace, our vapor wall barrier that prevents water from permeating the walls. After looking over Ryan's proposal, the homeowner happily agreed to his recommendations and decided to move forward with the project. 

In about a month, our Foreman, Kiko P., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew installed 144ft of WaterGuard and CleanSpace, 1 TripleSafe, and 2 IceGuard. Once they were done with the installation, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Now, our customer can have peace of mind knowing his basement will remain dry for many years to come! Are you experiencing water issues in your basement? Schedule your FREE estimate today by clicking HERE!
