Photo Album: Transforming a Leaking Basement in Pinckney, MI

Bea was tired of water leaking into her basement and contacted us at Ayers Basement Systems. After conducting an inspection, the team at Ayers concluded that water was leaking through different areas in the foundation. The team suggested installing the WaterGuard drain in combination with the TripleSafe system.

Preparing For the Drain

WaterGuard is a French drain system that sits below the basement floor. Thus, before the Drain can be placed, concrete around the perimeter of the basement must be torn up and a trench dug.

Placing Down WaterGuard

Once the trench was dug out, the crew at Ayers could place the drain. The system's location keeps it out of the mud zone, unlike other drains eliminating the chance of getting clogged! Any water leaking through the foundation will be caught by the drain and funneled toward the sump pump!

Implementing the TripleSafe System

Bea opted to install the TripleSafe sump pump for internal draining measures. The TripleSafe utilizes three pumps within one-liner for maximum water precautions. Additionally, the third pump in the liner is attached to an external battery allowing the pump to run even in emergencies! Bea was thrilled that she had found a permanent solution for her basement!
