The challenge we faced was having to start this job almost immediately because the basement waterproofing issues were holding up the new home renovations. Our project manager and production manager worked together and were able to have a full crew ready to go within 24 hours.
To address this, Steve Custus designed a full closed perimeter drainage system (Grate-Drain) with inspection ports strategically placed throughout the system for easy access and inspection. We also installed 2 Grate Sumps with 1/3 HP Fast Sumps that can remove 2400 gallons of water per hour. Additionally, we installed a full ThermalShield sealed vapor barrier on the walls to prevent any future wall leaks or dampness from reaching the basement floor, along with a high-volume, high-efficiency dehumidifier that can remove up to 90 pints of moisture a day from the basement air, creating a healthy environment for many years to come.
