Basement Waterproofing Case Studies: Rec Room Usage Put on Hold Due to Foundation Crack in Courtice, Ontario
Challenge
A basement rec room is an excellent addition for a home to have. We use these rooms for entertaining, catching up with friends, and as a place to escape and relax.
A customer in Courtice, Ontario, unfortunately, wasn’t able to use his rec area anymore. A previously repaired foundation crack had reopened and was leaking water into the room. Furthermore, they used a projector-style TV that utilized the wall space where the leak was occurring.
Solution
Looking to get their rec room back, the customer reached out to Clarke Basement Systems and met with System Design Specialist Chris Luke. Chris showed the customer our FlexiSpan® Repair System, and he was excited to use a method that was guaranteed with a warranty.
Foreman Dave Jackson started the repair by injecting our sealant deep into the crack to prevent water from coming through. He then sealed the entire exterior area of the crack before installing an in-floor drain.
The customer can’t wait to start using his rec room again. His home is protected from water and with a 25-year transferrable warranty for extra peace of mind.
