Summary

Water intrusion in a basement can cause ongoing headaches for homeowners. This project called for a full interior drainage system to address moisture buildup and protect the space from future problems.

The Work

Installed a basement gutter system to direct water away from the foundation
Added a sump pump with backup for extra protection
Buried a discharge line to safely move water outside
Managed site work obstructions that could interfere with drainage installation

The Outcome

The basement now stays dry and protected from water damage. These upgrades help keep the foundation strong and the space usable. Homeowners can move forward without worrying about moisture issues returning.
