Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Waterproofing in Franklin, TN

This basement in Franklin, TN, needed a waterproofing solution, so they contacted the experts at Frontier for help. Our team recommended and installed our two-stage waterproofing system, designed specifically for monolithic foundations. This system includes a drain train and a method to capture seepage from both the walls and the floor-wall joint, directing it to the sump pump system to protect against floor leaks. As a result, this basement is now dry and ready for use!

Wet Basement

This space was overwhelmed with water, rendering it nearly useless. Here, you can see clear evidence of floor leaks.

Brick Basement Wall

The brick basement walls are porous, allowing water to seep through and create moisture in the basement.

TripleSafe Sump Pump

The TripleSafe sump pump is now installed, providing an effective solution for managing water in your home. This system includes a battery backup, ensuring it continues to operate during power outages and failures.

Trench Drain Dug

A trench drain is excavated along the perimeter of the basement floor, directing water from the sump pump to the exterior drain line.

Drain Pipes Installed

Once the trench drain is complete, the drain pipes are installed. After they are in place, the floor will be re-concreted to protect the pipes.

DryTrak System Installed

Next, the DryTrak system is installed along the perimeter of the basement, positioned above the floor. Weep holes are drilled at the bottom of the walls to facilitate drainage.

The SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier is now installed, capable of removing up to 100 pints of moisture from the air each day. This energy efficient unit is compact, ensuring it won't take up much space in your basement.

IceGuard Exterior Drain
