Basement Waterproofing Case Studies: Concerned Customer Calls Clarke Basement Systems to Inspect His Damp, Leaky Basement

Challenge

A homeowner in Leaskdale, Ontario, noticed a damp smell coming from his basement and was worried some structural damage may have occurred, such as cracking in his foundation. There was also a discovery of water leaking, but he couldn’t figure out where. Rest assured, we sent out an inspector to evaluate his situation in no time.

Solution

The solution provided consisted of installing our WaterGuard® drainage system designed to direct water coming through the home's floor or wall joints. Next was to install our patented CleanSpace® vapour barrier. The barrier will direct water seepage to the WaterGuard®, and then reach the SuperSump®.

When the basement was finished and effectively waterproofed, the homeowner was glad he made the right decision to call Clarke Basement Systems, as he was now at ease his place was well taken care of.
