Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Waterproofing in Brentwood, TN

This customer in Brentwood, TN, called Frontier for their basement waterproofing needs. They had an issue with water coming through the walls and floors, especially during rainstorms. To fix this issue, we installed our WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system and a TripleSafe Complete pump. We also installed IceGuard to prevent floods from clogged or frozen discharge lines. To keep any water discharge away from the structure, we installed a LawnScape Outlet. These products will significantly reduce the likelihood of future flooding or water intrusion issues.

Basement During Inspection

Water intrusion is an issue in this basement. Without remediation, all the items stored down here will mold and rot. As well as structural problems.

Water Damage

This basement is having issues with water intrusion. This area is wet and muddy, meaning water is coming through the walls and soaking the floors.

Trench Dug

A trench is dug around the perimeter of this basement to get ready to place the WaterGuard system. This debris will be removed, and weep holes will be drilled to let water escape from cavities in the concrete block wall.

Debris Removed

The debris has been removed and weep holes are drilled to let water out into the drainage system.

WaterGuard Placement

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.

Installation Process

The WaterGuard is placed, CleanSpace added, and the TripleSafe put in place.

CleanSpace

After the WaterGuard is put in place, a layer of CleanSpace is placed on top for extra protection.

WaterGuard Install Complete

After the WaterGuard is put in place and surrounded with clean gravel and a CleanSpace liner, a layer of cement is applied. Completing the drainage system installation in this basement.

IceGuard

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™

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.
