Wet basement wall in Portland
Thursday, September 3rd, 2015 by Jessica Dingle
Challenge
This homeowner had a beautiful finished basement but this last year the wall was softening and has a strange dark area. When our team came out to inspect they discovered that this was due to a large concentration of wet soil behind the basement wall on the exterior. Over time water began to work its way through the concrete wall and now the family risked damage to the finished walls of their home.
Solution
Our team came in and placed not only a drain system to collect this water but also installed our patented Bright Wall panels to ensure the walls of the basement remained strong for the life of the house. As an added bonus we also added drainage to the adjoining crawl space to promote better insulation and home efficiency.
