Severe Water Damage to Greenville, SC Basement Leads to WaterGuard Drain

Water getting into the basement of a home can be a pretty scary thing because, well, there shouldn't be water in the basement at all. However, water intrusion in a basement is unfortunately very common and something that we see almost daily. There are a few different ways and reasons why water gets into a basement, but we believe that there is only one permanent solution. Our solution addresses the water intrusion from the interior of the home. 

This basement in Greenville had some very serious damage caused by water intrusion. While there were many areas that were affected by the water intrusion, the area pictured in the first photo shows off some of the more intense damage in the basement. Most of the damage is towards the bottom of the wall where the majority of the water was coming through. When our System Design Specialist visited the home and saw this, he knew exactly what was going to be needed to take care of this issue for good.

The second photo shows the same area but after our crew had come out to the home to install the system. The most noticeable part of the installation is the CleanSpace liner that can be seen covering just about the entire wall. The CleanSpace catches any water that may get in through the basement wall and directs it down to the WaterGuard drain. The WaterGuard is actually on the floor of the basement and has been covered with concrete in this photo. The WaterGuard goes along the perimeter of the basement and collects the water coming into the basement and then drains the water down to the sump pump where it can be pumped out and away from the home.
