The job: a full interior system

This Mount Clemens basement got a full interior waterproofing system: drain tile around the whole perimeter and a brand-new sump pump system.

How water gets in, and where the system catches it

Water collects around the footing at the base of the walls. An interior drainage system catches it right there, at the footing, before it reaches the floor, and carries it to the sump pump.

How we built it

Dug trenches along the base of the foundation walls
Hauled out the dirt and debris
Washed every wall and squeegeed the floors
Laid four-inch perforated drain tile to the new sump pump pit
Set the stone over the drain tile
Wrapped the walls with DMX dimpled membrane and poured the concrete floor back

The result

The homeowner has a dry basement: 108 feet of perimeter drain tile feeding a brand-new sump pump system. The waterproofing system is backed by our 25-year transferable limited warranty. The warranty doesn’t cover the sump pit or the pump.
