Basement Waterproofing Family Home in Hyattsville,MD
Challenge
A homeowner in Hyattsville, MD, faced persistent water intrusion in their basement during every heavy rainstorm. This recurring issue caused stress and limited the usability of their lower level. Seeking a permanent fix, they needed a professional assessment to address the root cause of the seepage. The primary challenge was to implement an effective, long-lasting solution for basement waterproofing in Hyattsville, MD, that could withstand severe weather and restore the homeowner's peace of mind.
Solution
Our System Design Specialist conducted a thorough diagnostic inspection and developed a tailored waterproofing strategy. We installed a comprehensive sump pump and drainage system, beginning with the WaterGuard® perimeter drainage channel to capture wall and floor seepage. This water was then directed to a high-capacity SuperSump® pump system. To combat moisture, we installed the CleanSpace® vapor barrier on the walls. Finally, to ensure year-round protection, we added an IceGuard® fitting to prevent the discharge line from freezing. Shortly after completion, a significant rainstorm tested the system, and the basement remained completely dry. The homeowner now has a secure and usable space, showcasing a successful Hyattsville basement waterproofing project.
