Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Waterproofing in Greenbrier, TN

This customer in Greenbrier, TN called Frontier for help after water entered their basement through an exterior wall. To mitigate the issue and waterproof the basement we installed a WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system, Trench drains, CleanSpace wall liner, and a TripleSafe sump pump to pump water through the drainage lines. We also installed IceGuard to prevent floods from clogged or frozen discharge lines and a LawnScape system. Now their basement is dry and clean.

Trench Dug

A trench is dug around the perimeter of the foundation walls in preparation for installing the WaterGuard subfloor drainage system.

Getting Ready for TripleSafe Installation

After the trench is dug around the perimeter a hole is dug for the installation of the TripleSafe sump pump installation.

Weep Holes

Weep holes are drilled into the concrete block for water to drain out into the WaterGuard system.

Trench Drain

A trench drain is installed in high traffic areas like doorways. Water will fall into the drain and be funneled through the WaterGuard system and out the drainage lines.

WaterGuard Placed

Unlike old-fashioned drain tile systems installed on the outside of the home, WaterGuard® is installed just underneath the perimeter edge of the basement floor.

CleanSpace® Wall System and WaterGuard Installation

The WaterGuard is cemented into place and CleanSpace is installed over the wall to create a barrier for water and moisture.

Trench Drain Installation

The trench drain is fully installed and a thin layer of cement is placed on top to secure it into place.

TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System

Our most reliable sump pump system, the TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System, provides three levels of protection for your basement and your peace of mind. For normal functioning, the TripleSafe™ has a powerful, cast-iron Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower sump pump set at the lowest level. For heavy volumes of water or in case of primary pump failure, a second, more powerful Zoeller® ½ hp pump set a bit higher in the liner will take over.

IceGuard and Lawnscape

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.
