A homeowner in Winston-Salem, NC was concerned about moisture in their basement along with signs of stress along the block foundation walls. Our team addressed both issues by installing a basement waterproofing system to help manage water intrusion and CarbonArmor straps to reinforce and stabilize the foundation walls. The result is a stronger, drier basement with long-term protection against both water and structural damage.
Shah from Winston Salem, NC contacted Carolina Basement Systems because he had problems with basement waterproofing. The company installed the Ultra Sump 4 and perimeter drainage. The Ultra Sump 4 is a submersible pump placed in a sump pit. The perimeter drainage consists of a system of pipes placed around the basement's perimeter. The system drains water that has seeped through the foundation walls and floor into the drainage pipes. The water is then pumped out of the basement by the Ultra Sump 4.
We installed the TrenchDrain System with a TripleSafe Sump Pump in this customer's basement to effectively manage water intrusion. The TrenchDrain captures surface water and directs it to the TripleSafe Sump Pump, which ensures reliable water removal even during heavy rainfall or power outages. This combination will keep this basement dry and protected, all the time!
The old sump pump system inside this home failed rather quickly and water was still being a problem. We installed our patented design and utilized the existing sump pump hole. Now the basement is safe and dry.
