Leaky Basement Repair Near Vancouver, BC
Basements are imperfect structures -- and they're built in soils that are far from perfect. Unfortunately, water will leak or seep into your home through every one of these imperfections.
Typically, water will find its way through any one of these avenues:
- The wall/floor joint
- Home plumbing leaks or failures
- Through the concrete as water vapor
- Through wall or floor cracks
- By passing through crevices around basement windows
- In through pipe penetrations
- Via hatchway doors
A Dry Vancouver Basement, complete with BrightWall Panels, TripleSafe Sump Pump System, WaterGuard Drainage System and SaniDry Basement Air System
Most of these problems can be solved with the help of a perimeter basement drainage system, also sometimes called an interior French drain. These are installed by jackhammering a small area around the edge of your floor. A trench is created, and some clean stone is laid on the bottom. A pipe system is placed on a top, and clean stone is laid on top. Then the drain is covered with concrete, and it's ready to direct water to a sump pump system.
Professional basement waterproofers are ideal for a job like this. We know the best ways to direct the water, how to design a system that won't clog, and how to install it while minimizing dust and debris. Waterproofers that are members of the Basement Systems international network, like Vancouver Basement Systems will also have access to a wide variety of patented & proprietary waterproofing products, such as the WaterGuard drainage system, or the TripleSafe sump pump.
