Water Puddles in a Basement in Booneville, IN

A homeowner in Booneville, IN, began to be concerned about the safety and quality of his storage items when he found water on the bottoms of the cardboard boxes. A few of his cardboard boxes contained priceless items that needed to be kept safe and away from water. The homeowner contacted us in hopes of solving his dilemma. Not only does water cause damage to items, but it also affects the energy it takes to heat and cool a space. It was costing the homeowner more to heat his home due to water causing humidity in the basement.

To control the flow of water that entered into the basement, a small trench was formed for the WaterGuard to be set into. The WaterGuard system allows water to enter the guard from the walls and then flow to the sump pump. The sump pump will then pump water out and away from the home. CleanSpace was installed alongside the sides of the walls to protect the space from water vapor. CleanSpace allows the water that escapes inside through the walls, to flow directly down to the WaterGuard system. This basement waterproofing technique successfully kept the basement dry and the homeowner pleasantly satisfied.
