Basement Drainage System

Basement drainage systems can be installed along the perimeter of your basement to manage water and protect your home from damage. Our drainage systems collect water at the wall and floor joint where basement water problems often start.

Our systems are compact, install quickly, and minimize disruption to your basement. The unique UV-resistant filter fabric allows water to pass through before being directed to an outlet pipe, enabling a higher inflow rate than traditional pipe drainage systems. This reduces hydrostatic pressure around your foundation and helps keep your basement dry.

What is hydrostatic pressure and how does our drainage system relieve it?

Hydrostatic pressure is the force created by water-saturated soil pressing against your foundation. Water weighs about 8.5 pounds per gallon, and just one inch of rain on an average home lot can add up to roughly 22 tons of water pressing on your basement walls.

Our drainage system reduces this pressure by collecting water from the soil around your foundation and carrying it safely away from your home. By removing water before it can build up, the system helps keep your basement dry and protected.

Vapor Barrier

Installing a vapor barrier is an effective way to protect your basement from water damage. It provides quick installation and can immediately improve moisture protection.

We use a heavy-duty liner that is waterproof, puncture-resistant, and brightens the appearance of your basement. Vapor barrier installation is an important part of any complete basement waterproofing system.
