Basement Waterproofing in Ashburn, VA
Challenge
A homeowner in Ashburn, VA faced persistent water intrusion in their basement, a problem that threatened valuable storage, risked mold growth, and jeopardized the structural stability of their home. Continuous dampness not only made the basement unusable but also raised concerns about indoor air quality and long-term property value. Attempts to address the issue with temporary fixes such as dehumidifiers or surface sealants proved inadequate. Realizing that professional basement waterproofing was the only way to prevent further water damage and health risks, the homeowner reached out to NV Waterproofing and Foundation Repair for an effective solution tailored to the unique conditions in Ashburn.
Solution
Following a thorough inspection by NV Waterproofing's team, a customized basement waterproofing system was implemented to address the water intrusion at its source. The cornerstone of this system was the advanced CleanSpace encapsulation—a 20-mil liner designed to block vapor and resist mold, far surpassing traditional moisture barriers. To tackle water entering at the base of the foundation, the team installed the WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system, strategically placed to capture and direct water to the powerful SuperSump pump. This sump system, featuring an airtight lid, ensures efficient and reliable water removal. Additionally, IceGuard discharge lines were added, allowing the system to function even in freezing conditions and preventing backups from ice or snow. The collaboration of CleanSpace, WaterGuard, SuperSump, and IceGuard transformed the basement into a dry, safe, and usable space, providing lasting protection against water intrusion and reinforcing why NV Waterproofing and Foundation Repair remains a top choice for basement waterproofing in Ashburn, VA.
