Bad Odours from Unwanted Water in Markham, ON Basement

A home in Markham, Ontario, had a large 32-foot-wide cold room that no longer could be used for storage due to groundwater seeping. Further inspection found the water had travelled beyond the cold room and into their carpeted recreation room that was open to the upper levels of their home.  The homeowner feared their finished basement space would be damaged and needed the peace of mind their basement would be dry while they were away from home for extended periods.

The customer was pleased with a previous work we completed years prior and knew they could trust Clarke Basement Systems to fix their wet basement issues. They spoke to our sales rep; Colin Clayden who explained everything to them in detail and came up with the best solution for their wet basement. Dave Jackson and the team came in and installed a WaterGuard® Below-Floor Drain around the perimeter of the cold room to capture water entering from the footing a floor/wall joint. They put CleanSpace® anti-microbial wall membrane to capture water and create a vapour barrier between the basement and damp basement walls.  The basement no longer has a musty, mouldy smell to there basement and will be protected from any water leakage.
