Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing a damp basement in Sainte-Anne-Des-Plaines, Qc
If your feeling having moldy smells in your house, always make sure to check your basement, for water leakage might be the reason behind this problem.
This basement in Sainte-Anne-Des-Plaines was having those issues and when we finished installing our waterproofing products the air in the entire place got clean again and healthier.
The ‘WaterGuard’ interior drain was installed to capture all water coming from the walls and joints; then A SuperSump pump got linked to our interior drain, and is able to pump a huge amount of water per hour, it has also an airtight lid on it to prevent water from evaporating out of the sump hole, and finally an IceGuard outlet to prevent freezing of water coming out from the pipes during winter time.
