Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Water Proofing in Brentwood, TN

This customer in Brentwood, TN, called Frontier when they noticed water entering the basement through the garage door and starting to cause mold issues. To fix these issues, we installed our WaterGuard subfloor drainage system, a TripleSafe sump pump, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. We completed the project by installing IceGuard to prevent floods from clogged or frozen discharge lines, as well as a LawnScape system.

Basement During Inspection

During the inspection of the basement, mold and water damage are present. You can see the water lines are visible on the concrete block wall. If this issue is not addressed, it will only worsen and ultimately lead to structural failure.

Trench Dug

A trench is dug around the perimeter of the basement, and weep holes are drilled to let any water seep out into the drainage system.

WaterGuard Installation Process

The WaterGuard system is ready to be installed.

Getting the Basement Ready

Everything is removed from the basement, and it is cleaned up, and now it is ready for our waterproofing products.

Trench Dug

A trench is dug and a space excavated to place the drainage system and sump pump. All this debris will be cleaned up before installing the WaterGuard system and TripleSafe sump pump.

Cleaning Up

Buckets are brought in to remove all the debris before installing our waterproofing products.

CleanSpace

CleanSpace liner is added on top of the WaterGuard system for an added layer of protection from water and moisture.

Cement Added

A thin layer of cement is added on top of the WaterGuard system to secure everything in place.

TripleSafe Sump Pump

Our most reliable sump pump system, the TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System, provides three levels of protection for your basement and your peace of mind. For normal functioning, the TripleSafe™ has a powerful, cast-iron Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower sump pump set at the lowest level. For heavy volumes of water or in case of primary pump failure, a second, more powerful Zoeller® ½ hp pump set a bit higher in the liner will take over.

The SaniDry Sedona

The Sedona easily fits in small crawl spaces, yet has a powerful blower to effectively dry large basements. Mold and mildew are common in crawl spaces, but the Sedona keeps the relative humidity below 55%, so mold won't stand a chance. As a high-efficiency dehumidifier, the Sedona removes more moisture (100 pints per day) for less electricity cost than conventional models.
