Photo Album: Garage and Basement Waterproofing in Milford, MA

A homeowner in Milford, Massachusetts, faced water intrusion issues that began to damage the garage and the semi-finished basement. Water seeped through the garage floor, laundry room, utility room, and bathroom, averaging an inch of water during heavy rain and snow. Persistent leaks and flooding over time resulted in mold and drywall damage, rendering the finished space unusable. Seeking a reputable company known for quality work, the homeowner contacted Erickson Foundation Solutions for a permanent basement waterproofing solution. Jim Meglio, our System Design Specialist, recommended a comprehensive suite of systems to ensure the waterproofing of both the basement and garage. The key components include WaterGuard for perimeter drainage, FlexiSpan for crack repair, TrenchDrain for surface drainage, and the TripleSafe sump pump. This system is engineered to intercept water around the full perimeter of the basement and garage, channel it to the sump pump, and then expel it from the house via an external discharge line. To prevent pipe freezing, IceGuard was installed on the discharge line, thereby mitigating the risk of pipe blockages that could lead to flooding. NexusPro was utilized to seal cracks in the garage, preventing further cracking and settling, and providing an enhanced finish. Finally, we installed the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to remove moisture from the basement, fostering a stable climate and preventing mold proliferation. This solution offers homeowners the assurance that their basement will remain perpetually dry. With this confidence, they can fully utilize the finished area, secure in the knowledge that their investment is safeguarded.
