Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Waterproofing in Clarksville, TN

This customer in Clarksville, TN, called Frontier after a water intrusion in their basement. For this project, we began by removing the water-soaked drywall. Then, we installed our WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system. We also installed a TripleSafe sump pump to pump water through the drainage lines, as well as CleanSpace Liner on the walls. We completed the project by installing IceGuard and a LawnScape system.

Getting Ready for Basement Waterproofing

The perimeter has been cleared, and the wet drywall has been removed to prepare for all the basement waterproofing products to be installed.

Trench Dug

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

Weep Holes

Able to waterproof concrete block foundation walls -- Weep holes are drilled at the bottom of the blocks to drain the hollow cavities.

WaterGuard Placed

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.

TripleSafe Sump Pump Installation

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.

WaterGuard Installation Process

CleanSpace is installed, and the WaterGuard System is in place and cemented in.

WaterGuard Installation Complete

After the WaterGuard system is fully installed, it is covered with a thin layer of cement to keep everything in place.

Project Complete

CleanSpace has been installed, the TripleSafe sump pump has been placed and hooked up to the drainage lines, and the WaterGuard system has been fully installed.

IceGuard and LawnScape System Installed

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.
