Basement Waterproofing Case Studies: This Old House, Bracebridge, ON
Challenge
This was a 120 year old home in Bracebridge that had water coming in through most of the walls. The home owner wanted to make sure that the stone walls were protected from further damage.
Solution
A full perimeter WaterGuard system was install along the perimeter to avoid water seepage . We installed a TripleSafe pump system to replace the old sump pump that was not doing the job. This gives the house three levels of protection on the inside of the basement. All of the walls were covered with CleanSpace, keeping the moisture away from the basement and keeping it where it needs to be. This will help the stone rubble foundation to stay damp and not allow it to dry out and start to crumble.
