Basement Drainage in Montpelier, Vermont

Challenge

Montpelier, Vermont homeowners have been battling water in the basement for several years. When they purchased the home there was an existing sump pump system and drainage system installed by the previous homeowner. The system was no longer working and they began to get water again. The homeowners were concerned about the water damaging the washer, dryer, and their belongings in storage. After seeing our company trucks on the road and a referral from a local contractor, they decided to book a FREE estimate with Northern Basement Systems.

Solution

Our system design specialist developed a design and solution to keep the basement dry year-round. After the homeowner decided to move forward with the project, our team scheduled and installed a new, reliable, and warranted system to keep the space dry even in the event of a power outage!

First, our installation specialist began by jackhammering the interior perimeter of the foundation to remove the old drainage system and pump and allow them to install the new waterproofing system. Our team proposed and installed our patented WaterGuard Perimeter Drainage system. Unlike many other drainage systems, our system placed and designed to collect water and not mud that clogs the drainage and causes leaking.

The drainage system was then paired with our MOST RELIABLE sump pump system, the TripleSafe. This pump system houses 3 pumps, a primary pump, a secondary pump, and an UltraSump battery back-up pump, this system will protect the basement from water in the event of pump failure, a tripped circuit, heavy water, or power outage. Lastly, our team installed a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to reduce moisture in the air and prevent the growth of mold in the home.

With all of these systems installed, the homeowners no longer have to worry about water or mold in their home! Call 855-DRY-TIME today to get a FREE Estimate from Matt Clark and his team at Northern Basement Systems!
