Photo Album: WaterGuard, SuperSump and BrightWall to resolve water in Oakwood, OH

A homeowner in Oakwood, Ohio was having problems in an older home with water seeping into the basement through cracks in a finished wall.  The homeowner met with Chris, one of our Certified Inspectors, who recommended that the homeowner have WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System, a SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System, an UltraSump Battery Back-up System, and BrightWall Crack Covers to resolve the problems in the basement. WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System is a piping system installed in the floor along the foundation walls to intercept water that seeps into the basement.  The water is then drained into the sump pump system to be pumped out of the basement.   A SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System is a high-end Zoeller cast iron pump.  It includes the WaterWatch Alarm, SuperLiner and Airtight Lid.  The WaterWatch Alarm sounds if the water reaches the point that the pump should have started or during a power failure.  This alerts the homeowner to a problem with the system that needs to be resolved.  The SuperLiner is a rugged, heavy-duty liner that will not cave in or crack.  The Airtight Lid keeps objects from falling into the liner, keeps out bugs and odors and quiets the pump.  The UltraSump is a battery back-up pump.  This pump will automatically turn on if the primary pump fails or during a power failure.  The UltraSump comes with its own power pack and charging station and can run on battery power to pump water out of the basement. BrightWall Crack Covers direct water down into the WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System and also keep water vapor from penetrating into the basement.   These products working together will help to create a dry basement for the homeowner.  Now that the water problems have been resolved the homeowner can refinish the basement to use for living space and storage with no worries of water intrusion.
