Contractors and engineers have been dealing with the challenges of stopping water from entering in through the walls, floors and joints of a basement through varying weather conditions and in different types of soils for more than 100 years. Unfortunately, basements are imperfect concrete structures that will not be able to hold the elements off indefinitely. When your basement begins to allow moisture into the air and water onto your basement floor, you need a second line of defense.
Three Ways to Waterproof:
Exterior Excavation
An expensive, destructive process that will temporarily fix the problem. This method requires you to remove any porches, steps, sidewalks, and landscaping around your home.
Negative-side Sealant
Another temporary fix that typically solves the problem for between one month and one year- this process seals cracks and leaks, using caulking or paint. The leak is plugged, but the problem (water around the foundation outside) remains, continuing to wear down your foundation and eventually breaking through interior sealants.

Proven waterproofing method: Basement Systems' WaterGuard Interior perimeter drainage system for wet basements, accepts water from the floor and wall joints. |
Interior Baseboard System
The best of the three methods, this procedure involves installing an interior baseboard drainage system along the perimeter of the floor. One obstacle to a system like this is to keep the drain from being clogged by mud. Too often, homeowners allow years to pass without servicing the drains only to have them fail when they become clogged. A second challenge connected to Interior Baseboard waterproofing systems is setting them up to accept water from the walls without leaving a large, unsightly gap at the edge of the floor that can collect dirt and debris that clogs the drain.
Basement Systems' patented WaterGuard system meets and exceeds all the demands and limitations of all other waterproofing solutions. Fast and less invasive than trenching and digging to install, easy to maintain, extremely resistant to clogging, and subtle to the eyes, Innovative Basement Systems of North Dakota and Minnesota has the lasting, quality solution that you need.
