Recently, we at Liberty Basement Systems had the opportunity to help a homeowner in Waymart, PA, battle a common yet stressful issue – water intrusion through their cement block wall in coves. Like any other day at Liberty Basement Systems, it began with a concerned call from a homeowner who was fed up with the recurring dampness and the musky odor thriving in their basement. Understanding the discomfort and the potential risk to their home’s foundation, our Customer Care team quickly scheduled a home inspection to tackle the problem head-on. After a thorough assessment by one of our trusted System Design Specialists, the cause was clear, and so was the solution. Our specialist recommended the installation of the WaterGuard drainage system alongside the TripleSafe Sump Pump – two of our most reliable products engineered for keeping basements dry and healthy. Within a matter of days, our well-coordinated production team, including a skilled foreman and our dedicated installers, were on-site, ready to turn the tide against basement water intrusion. The process involved strategically placing the WaterGuard channel at the basement’s perimeter to intercept water at the source. To ensure peace of mind even during the most intense rainfall, we installed the TripleSafe Sump Pump. It's not just any sump pump; it’s a robust, triple-layer protection unit designed to operate even in power outages. The transformation was not just about removing the imminent threat but also about securing the homeowner’s peace of mind. Once the installation was complete, and after making sure the area was as clean as we had found it, we walked the homeowner through the new systems. The difference was not only in the dry and odor-free basement air but also in the confidence that they now possessed, knowing their home was protected.

It is evident in the corner of the basement that there is water intrusion due to the dark markings on the cement block.
During Install
During this install you can see where the Waterguard has been installed in a trench with stone so that the water can flow freely in to the trench and that is directed in to the TripleSafe sump Pump.
