Figuring out the Cause of Water Seeping into a Basement Floor
Challenge
A homeowner from Comstock, NY called in stating "water is coming through the floor. We have a sump pump that is running constantly but some areas have 2 inches of water, while others have no water at all." The homeowner's basement previously flooded after a rainy weekend, where water was pouring in through cracks in the perimeter. After having an emergency service come out for a temporary solution, it was time for our team to step in with products that guarantee a permanent dry basement.
Solution
After careful evaluation by Design Specialists, Joe Toomey and Tonya Stephenson, our team recommended a combination of products that would touch every painpoint of this basement. The homeowner was quoted with TrenchDrain, PolyDrain, EZFlow Lateral, a TripleSafe Sump Pump with a Battery Back-Up, a LawnScape Outlet, and an EDC Line. Installing all products together not only redirects water away from the home, but also guarantees no water that does enter stays in the basement.
