Sump Pumps Case Studies: Ground Water Leaks into Basement in Alliston, Ontario
Challenge
Leaking water from the floor-wall joints of your home often means that groundwater is pooling at the side of your home. If left unattended, the water can begin to crack your foundation, and with dampness comes mold and moisture. In this basement in Alliston, homeowners were concerned that mold had already started to grow due to the nasty smell lingering around the area.
Solution
System Design Specialist Ben Wallis came up with a solution that was installed by Installation Foreman Dustin Biggs. First, they used a perimeter drainage system to make the repair permanent with our WaterGuard® system. Next, our ThermalDry® wall insulation system was installed to keep any moisture from growing mold. Lastly, a SuperSump® System was installed to infiltrate water out of the basement area and to the exterior discharge line.
The finished product completed by Dustin and his crew left the customers impressed and very happy they invested in a permanent solution that would protect themselves and their homes.
