Buyers expect a dry basement when looking to purchase a home. In fact, buyers view your home with a wet basement as a fixer-upper and they will pay your 10-20% less than otherwise!

To fix these homeowners wet basement problems, this is how we would do it. The best way to get rid of any water entering the basement is to install a full perimeter WaterGuard Drainage System and the TripleSafe Sump Pump. BrightWall Paneling System is also a major component to waterproofing this basement. 

The BrightWall paneling system will be installed throughout the basement walls. These panels will stop water vapor from entering the foundation walls by allowing the water to run down the backside of the panel through the flanges on the WaterGuard Drainage System. They are 100% waterproof, and because they are fastened mechanically to the basement walls, they can never be pushed off by moisture that seeps through. Once the water drains into the WaterGuard System, it will unseen and safely be drained away to the TripleSafe Sump Pump. WaterGuard is a patented piping system that intercepts water at the perimeter of the basement. This system is most effective and reliable way to solve wet basement problems. Once the water is drained to the TripleSafe Sump Pump, it will be pumped out of the home at a safe distance through an exterior discharge line.
