Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing a Wooden Foundation in Calgary, AB
This homeowner in Calgary, Alberta encounters issues with basement flooding and dampness, as well the exterior window wells routinely pooling with water. Wanting to protect their home investment and eliminate the issues with a permanent solution, they contacted the experts at Doug Lacey's Basement Systems.
A System Design Specialist was able to assess the situation and provide the homeowners with a FREE, no obligation quote. Our Production Team was able to then come to the home to install our WellDuct® Window Well Drains, designed to prevent basement flooding due to window well leakage. The low profile WellDuct® system channels excess water from the exterior window wells down into the new perimeter WaterGuard® Below-Floor Drain System. Designed with a built-in wall flange which extends up your basement wall by 3/8", any water leaking from the walls will move downward and behind this flange where it is then directed to the homeowners existing sump pump system.
