Basement Waterproofing in Jackson, New Hampshire, by Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems.

Challenge

A homeowner in Jackson, New Hampshire, experienced chronic water issues in their basement. Wall seepage and inadequate drainage led to standing water during heavy rains, creating a damp and unwelcoming environment. The homeowner needed a comprehensive waterproofing solution to eliminate these problems and protect their home from future damage. The homeowner contacted Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems for a solution.

Solution

Matt Clark’s Northern Basement Systems developed a customized waterproofing plan tailored to the homeowner’s needs. The approach included:

1. WaterGuard® Perimeter Drainage System
   Installed along the interior perimeter of the basement, the WaterGuard® system was designed to capture water seepage from the walls and floor joint. The system sits above the foundation footing, ensuring it remains free from dirt and debris that could cause clogs. WaterGuard® efficiently channels water to the sump pump system.

2. TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System
   To manage water removal, a TripleSafe™ Sump Pump was installed. This system provides triple protection with a primary pump for everyday use, a secondary pump for high water flow, and a battery-operated backup pump to ensure functionality during power outages. Together, these features deliver reliable, round-the-clock water removal.

3. CleanSpace® Wall System
   A CleanSpace® vapor barrier was applied to the walls to control moisture and direct seepage into the WaterGuard® system. The durable, 20-mil thick liner creates a clean, dry appearance while protecting the basement from mold and dampness.

The Jackson, New Hampshire, basement was transformed into a dry, reliable space with no standing water or seepage issues. The combination of WaterGuard®, TripleSafe™, and the CleanSpace® Wall System provides long-term protection, giving the homeowner peace of mind.
