Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Waterproofing in Madisonville, KY

A customer in Madisonville, KY, called Frontier after a water intrusion in their basement. To waterproof their basement, we installed a WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, a trench drain at the entrance, and a TripleSafe sump pump to pump water through the drainage lines. We also installed IceGuard to prevent floods from clogged or frozen discharge lines and a LawnScape system. Now their basement is dry and clean.

Basement Before Project

During the inspection water lines are clearly visible on the basement floor.

More Water Damage

Even after cleaning and sweeping up the floors, water lines are clearly seen on the basement floor.

Trench Dug

A trench is dug around the perimeter of the basement to prepare for the installation of the WaterGuard system.

WaterGuard Installed

Our most popular drainage system, WaterGuard® is the ideal solution for most basement waterproofing applications. Unlike old-fashioned drain tile systems installed on the outside of the home, WaterGuard® is installed just underneath the perimeter edge of the basement floor.

ClaenSpace Added

After the WaterGuard system is put in place, a thin layer of CleanSpace is added for an extra layer of protection.

Drainage Lines Added

Drainage lines are added so the water can flow from the WaterGuard system into these lines and out of the basement.

TripleSafe Sump Pump and SaniDry Sedona Installed

A TripleSafe® Sump Pump System (shown here), combined with a SaniDry® dehumidifier, represents the ultimate in basement waterproofing and humidity control.

Trench Drain Installed

A Trench drain is installed in high foot traffic areas, like doorways. This drain will catch any water before it enters the basement.

IceGuard and LawnScape System Installation

Water escapes from the IceGuard® fitting only when the discharge line becomes clogged. Otherwise, water flows past the slotted openings into the drain pipe. LawnScape™ is a pipe buried from the downspout to a special LawnScape™ outlet that lets the water out onto the surface while camouflaging the end of the pipe. The lid comes off for easy cleaning. LawnScape™ is best used for downspout extensions over 8' long.
