Basement Waterproofing- New Annan, PE
Challenge
Recently, at Ridgeback Basement Systems, we completed a challenging foundation repair for a homeowner in New Annan, PE. The homeowner lived in a charming century home, which paired an original stone foundation area with a more recent concrete foundation addition. Unfortunately, water leakage had caused significant issues, infiltrating both the historic cellar and the newer basement space.
Following the initial contact with our Customer Care Specialist, we arranged a comprehensive home inspection. Our skilled System Design Specialist visited the property to diagnose the problem thoroughly. Upon evaluation, it was evident that the water leakage required immediate intervention to prevent further damage and to protect the structural integrity of the home.
Solution
To address the leakage effectively, we installed a series of advanced solutions. First, using the reliable TripleSafe Sump Pump, we secured a robust system for managing drainage, equipped to handle excessive water flow, mechanical or power failures. Coupled with this, we installed the IceGuard system to ensure that even if external conditions caused the discharge line to freeze, water could continue to exit safely, thereby preventing any potential backup in the basement.
Moreover, to enhance the thermal efficiency and block moisture intrusion, our team lined the cellar walls with SilverGlo insulation. This not only contributed to energy efficiency but also directed any intruding water toward the drainage system effectively.
We also addressed structural concerns by incorporating the PowerBrace system, specifically stabilizing the stone foundation. This ensured the foundation would remain secure and potentially corrected some issues over time, without resorting to invasive measures.
The combination of these installations culminated in a long-lasting solution, fully aligning with our mission to deliver a remarkable and reliable home preservation service. Our comprehensive approach in New Annan, PE, showcases our expertise and commitment to safeguarding homes through careful planning and expert implementation.
