Photo Album: Basement Waterproofing in Clarksville, TN

This customer in Clarksville, TN called Frontier for their basement waterproofing needs. To waterproof their basement we installed a WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system and a TripleSafe sump pump to pump water through the drainage lines and installed a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. We lined the walls with CleanSpace liner. We also installed IceGuard to prevent floods from clogged or frozen discharge lines and a LawnScape system. Now their basement is dry and clean.

Start of Project

To start this project an area is excavated for the sump pump to be placed and the perimeter is also excavated for the WaterGuard drainage system to be installed.

Weep Holes

Weep holes are drilled at the bottom of the concrete block to allow water to drain down into the drainage system.

TripleSafe Sump Pump

A TripleSafe® Sump Pump System (shown here), combined with a SaniDry® dehumidifier, represents the ultimate in crawl space waterproofing and humidity control.

WaterGuard Installation Process

The WaterGuard is being pet in place and a layer of CleanSpace liner is placed on top. CleanSpace has also been installed as an extra layer of protection on the interior wall.

SaniDry Sedona

The Sedona easily fits in small crawl spaces, yet has a powerful blower to effectively dry large crawl spaces. Mold and mildew are common in crawl spaces, but the Sedona keeps the relative humidity below 55%, so mold won't stand a chance. As a high-efficiency dehumidifier, the Sedona removes more moisture (100 pints per day) for less electricity cost than conventional models.

Water Proofing Complete

The CleanSpace has been installed, WaterGuard placed and a thin layer of cement covers it. The interior waterproofing is now complete.

IceGuard

Water escapes from the IceGuard® fitting only when the discharge line becomes clogged. Otherwise, water flows past the slotted openings into the drain pipe. LawnScape™ is a pipe buried from the downspout to a special LawnScape™ outlet that lets the water out onto the surface while camouflaging the end of the pipe. The lid comes off for easy cleaning.
