Photo Album: Wall restoration to resolve water problems in Liberty Township, OH
A Liberty Township, Ohio homeowner was having problems with hydrostatic pressure causing water to seep into the basement through the walls and the floor. The homeowner called The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati to find a solution to this problem. The homeowner met with Michael S who recommended that the homeowner have WaterGuard, a TripleSafe Sump Pump System, and EverLast Basement Wall System installed to resolve the problems they were experiencing in the basement.
WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System is a patented piping system that is installed into the floor along the foundation walls. The WaterGuard intercepts the water that is seeping into the basement and drains it into the sump pump system to be pumped out of the basement.
The TripleSafe Sump Pump system has three pumps. Pump One is the primary pump that will do the majority of the pumping. It is a 1/3 hp pump. Pump Two operates if pump one fails or becomes overwhelmed with a heavy flow of water, Pump Two will turn on giving it a "turbo boost". Both pumps running together can remove 6200 gallons of water per hour out of the basement. Pump Three is an UltraSump Battery Back-up Pump. Pump Three will automatically turn on during a power failure and will operate via battery power. It comes with its own battery pack and charging station.
When your finished basement wall leaks you will have to cut out the bottom part of the drywall. Chances are it has gotten wet and ruined by the water that was seeping into the basement. A great product to replace that bottom part of the wall is EverLast Basement Wall System. Everlast panels are made of cement board, covered with a mold proof, washable, vinyl finish. The trim is made of plastic and cannot be ruined by a plumbing leak or high humidity.
