Basement Waterproofing Case Studies: Two Floods Too Many, Pickering ON
Challenge
Waterproofing your basement isn't something you, as a homeowner, should leave to the last minute. Unfortunately, in this circumstance, these homeowners in Pickering had a flood in their basement that caused them to dip into their home insurance to cover the repairs. With another waterproofing company coming in and "fixing" the basement, it didn’t take too long before the basement was compromised and flooded again. Doing their due diligence, the owners found the best company to keep their basement permanently dry – Clarke Basement Systems.
Solution
One of our experienced System Design Specialists, Chris Luke, recommended the right products to encapsulate the space, keep it insulated, and safely discharge any excess water – IceGuard®, WaterGuard®, ThermalDry®, TripleSafe®, and SuperSump®. Our installation foreman, Dave Jackson, has been servicing basements for a long time and knows every product inside and out. Dave’s crew went to the home installing the system efficiently. As the products were installed, Dave described each product's purpose alleviating any trust issues the homeowners felt from the previous waterproofing company. The homeowners were delighted with the work from the initial call to the proposal, installation, and cleanup. The basement is now permanently dry.
