Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Waterproofing in Mount Juliet, TN

Kendra in Mount Juliet, TN, contacted Frontier after noticing a strong musty odor coming from her basement. During the inspection, the design specialist found elevated humidity levels, which were affecting the living space above, causing damage to first-floor baseboards. Mold growth was also present on the basement wall, indicating a long-term moisture problem. To address water intrusion, the Frontier crew removed the lower four feet of drywall around the perimeter of the basement to install a waterproofing system. WaterGuard drainage was installed along the basement perimeter and directed to a TripleSafe sump pump to collect and remove water from the home. Once the water management system was in place, the team installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to control humidity levels, reduce musty odors, and help prevent future moisture-related damage in the basement.

Space for the Drainage System

The crews remove concrete at the base of the wall to install the WaterGuard drainage system.

Sump Pump Installation

The drainage system connects to the TripleSafe sump pump, which continues to remove water in the event of a power outage.

Finished Installation

Once installation is finished, the floor is completely level. Flooring can be placed over the system if the homeowner wants to finish the space.

SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier

The SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was added to the space to control humidity long-term, especially considering the mold and floor warping the homeowner was concerned about.

IceGuard

As the discharge line exits the foundation wall, an IceGuard is installed to allow water to escape the system in case the line becomes blocked before reaching the LawnScape Outlet.
