Water Control in Grand Marsh, WI

Challenge

The block basement walls of this home in Grand Marsh, WI were not a pretty sight.  They were ridden with water stains due to water leaking into the basement from the walls from hydrostatic pressure being applied from the wet soil surrounding the foundation. 

These homeowners need a solution that would trap the water coming in through the walls and direct it to the sump pump, and were also hoping for something that would make there walls clean and bright.  

Solution

To fix these basement wall and water issues these homeowners were having, Sure-Dry Basement Systems installed their BrightWall® Basement Wall Panels along with their WaterGuard® interior drainage system.

BrightWall® is a rigid plastic sheeting that's attached to your basement wall by drilled-in plastic fasteners. Its bright white color maximizes the available light in your basement, creating a cheerful, clean-looking space.  BrightWall® is 100% waterproof and washable, and it creates a vapor barrier on your basement walls to block out water vapor and humidity. This ensures that you won't have to worry about mold growth or rot.

Like our other wall products, BrightWall® can direct water seepage into your perimeter drain, in this case the WaterGuard® interior drainage system.  The WaterGuard® system collects water that seeps through basement walls and drains it to your sump pump. The system installs quickly and has a clean finished appearance, meaning you don't have to worry about having an unsightly drain around the basement. WaterGuard® works for both block walls and poured concrete, ensuring that your basement remains dry in all situations.
