Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Waterproofing System in Florence, Kentucky

This basement in Florence, KY had ongoing water issues along the perimeter walls and near the stairwell. To keep the space dry year-round, our team installed a full interior waterproofing system that included WaterGuard perimeter drains, a trench drain at the stairwell entry, and a SuperSump sump pump system. WaterGuard is designed to sit on top of the footing rather than beside it, keeping the drainage channel out of the “mud zone” where clogs often form. It collects water seeping through wall joints or from under the floor and directs it straight to the sump pump for discharge. Combined with the trench drain to catch stairwell runoff and the powerful SuperSump system, this home’s basement is now fully protected from future leaks and flooding. Be sure to scroll through the photos to see how this block foundation was transformed into a clean, dry, and reliable space.

Basement Waterproofing Drains in Florence, KY

Our trench drain connects seamlessly with our WaterGuard drains. This drain will catch any water that may flood the stairwell before the water can reach the basement floor.

WaterGuard Subfloor Drains in Florence, KY

Our WaterGuard subfloor drains sit just below the floor slab to stay clear of mud. In fact, they come with a little wall flange that barely peeks out from the floor. This allows our drains to capture moisture that may seep down from the walls.
