Waterlogged Basement Solved in Phillipsburg
Challenge
A homeowner in Philipsburg, PA, was struggling with a persistent wet basement due to an inadequate sump pump system. As highlighted in the "before" photo, visible water intrusion was a significant concern, threatening potential damage and creating an unhealthy environment. Seeking a permanent solution, they turned to Liberty Basement Systems.
Solution
Our team addressed this challenge with a comprehensive and expertly installed system comprising several of our leading solutions: the CleanSpace® vapor barrier, the SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier, the TripleSafe Sump Pump System, and the WaterGuard® sub-floor drainage system.
The transformation, clearly evident in the "after" photo, showcases a completely dry and reliable basement environment. The process began with the installation of our durable CleanSpace® liner, which effectively isolates the basement from ground moisture, preventing water vapor from entering the space. To further control humidity and maintain a dry atmosphere, the high-performance SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier was strategically placed.
Crucially, the undersized and unreliable existing sump pump was replaced with our TripleSafe Sump Pump System. This powerful and dependable system provides three levels of pump protection, ensuring continuous water removal even in the event of primary pump failure or heavy water intrusion. Complementing the TripleSafe, our WaterGuard® sub-floor drainage system was installed along the perimeter of the basement. This innovative system effectively captures any water seepage at the wall-floor joint and directs it to the TripleSafe sump pump for efficient removal.
The synergistic effect of these systems has provided the Phillipsburg homeowner with a permanently dry and healthy basement. The CleanSpace® and SaniDry™ work continuously to control moisture, while the TripleSafe and WaterGuard® offer round-the-clock protection against water intrusion, regardless of weather conditions. This case exemplifies our commitment to providing reliable, long-lasting solutions that transform problematic basements into dry and usable spaces, offering homeowners true peace of mind.
