Full Waterproofing Renovation for Milton, MA Basement
Challenge
This expanded colonial style home in Milton, MA had a finished basement before fall and winter 2024, when several heavy rain events caused 2-4 inches worth of water to flood into the basement. This flooding event caused mold to grow within the walls, and the homeowners had to call in a specialized mold remediation team to rectify the issue; before refinishing the space, they made the smartest decision they could have in order to protect their future investment: they contacted DryZone Basement Systems to get a quote on fully waterproofing their basement.
Solution
Our inspector, Jacob, went out to assess the property and determine what would be the most effective solution to protect this basement from future flooding events, knowing that the homeowners planned to refinish the space again. He determined that a full perimeter of our WaterGuard drainage system would maximize the protection against groundwater seepage, a problem he had identified during his inspection. A TripleSafe sump pump system would help push water out of the basement efficiently: with three total pumps, including a battery-operated back up pump, there is lots of power pushing water up and out of the discharge line and carrying it away from the foundation. With two of our most effective systems in place - they could not feel more confident in the protection DryZone can offer with these products, and are ready to refinish!
