Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Water Leaking into Basement - Portland, OR
This homes basement had struggled with water leaks for years. To combat this they had been applying a waterproof paint, and repainting every few years to keep things sealed up. However, water kept coming back and was pushing up against the paint, bubbling from water around the windows and in a few other places along the foundation walls. To solve this homes water issues we installed a full perimeter WaterGuard drain system, TripleSafe sump pump, BrightWall panels, and a SaniDry dehumidifier.
