Water seepage in a basement in Huntsville, Ontario

Challenge

Recently, we had the privilege of assisting a homeowner in Huntsville, ON, who was grappling with a common yet distressing issue: water seeping through the cement floor of their unfinished basement. Despite owning a sump pump, the persistent problem indicated that the existing system wasn't sufficient to handle the water intrusion.

Solution

Our first step was to conduct an in-depth home inspection. One of our skilled System Design Specialists visited the home and meticulously diagnosed the underlying cause of the water issue. Following this comprehensive evaluation, we presented a detailed recommendation tailored to address the homeowner's specific needs effectively. The solution involved a two-fold approach: installing our WaterGuard interior drainage system and the TripleSafe Sump Pump. The WaterGuard system is ingeniously designed to intercept water at the basement perimeter, preventing it from entering the living space, while the TripleSafe Sump Pump offers unparalleled protection against flooded basements, providing a robust defense against future water invasions.

Upon agreement on the proposed solution, our dedicated production team got to work. They meticulously installed both the WaterGuard system and the TripleSafe Sump Pump, ensuring every aspect of the installation met our high standards. Upon completion, the homeowner's basement was thoroughly protected from potential water damage, and they received a clear explanation of how the systems operated and the value they added to their home. The result was a homeowner thrilled with the long-awaited resolution to their water issues and a basement poised to stay dry, no matter the weather outside. As they bid farewell to worries of water intrusion, we wrapped up another job, proud to have delivered on our promise of a secure, dry, and worry-free basement.
