Basement Waterproofing- Midville Branch, NS
Challenge
In Midville Branch, a homeowner who was renovating their 51-year-old property reached out to us at Ridgeback Basement Systems because they faced a troubling issue with basement water intrusion. Despite having strong cement walls, the absence of drainage tiles around their foundation caused a corner of the basement to become wet after rain. This situation underscored the critical need for effective waterproofing solutions. To effectively address this issue, we initiated our proven, step-by-step process aimed at ensuring our clients receive the best possible outcome.
Solution
The journey began with our Customer Care Specialist scheduling a home inspection. A System Design Specialist then arrived to perform a thorough examination and diagnosis. Recognizing the problem's root, we recommended a comprehensive solution comprising CleanSpace® encapsulation, drainage tile installation, and the inclusion of our TripleSafe Sump Pump system. The installation was meticulously executed by our skilled production team. We started by setting up a drainage system tailored to the unique dimensions of the home—addressing the integration for the front full 8-foot walls, side stepping-down sections, and the lower rear area. We then implemented the CleanSpace® encapsulation, which transformed the basement's environment into a dry, mold-resistant space, free of excess moisture and potential damage. To ensure ongoing water defense, we fixed a high-performance TripleSafe Sump Pump into place. It seamlessly tackles high water flow situations and functions reliably even during power outages, fortifying the home against wet weather conditions. Upon completion, the homeowner's basement became safeguarded from water issues that previously threatened their peace of mind and the integrity of their home. This professional intervention not only resolved the existing issue but provided durable protection, reflecting our commitment to delivering trustworthy, long-lasting home solutions.
