CleanSpace Wall
CleanSpace Wall Covers the field stone foundation and keeps the moisture from being seen.
In the trenches!
Trenches are dug in the floor to create and install the WaterGuard drainage system. It will go around the perimeter of the foundation as well as an artery line across the floor which will lead to the sump.
Work in progress
The windows are covered with the cleanspace wall and eventually cut to size.
TripleSafe liner goes in!
The crew found the low spot in the basement and dropped the sump liner in, this will later get filled in with clean, crushed stone to filter any particles from the ground that could clog the pipe in the future.
Basement Drainage in New Bedford
The WaterGuard is laid down along the perimeter, with the flange flush to the wall and the CleanSpace wall is tucked behind the flange. This allows moisture to run down the backside of the CleanSpace Wall and drips into the drainage pipe which gets carried to the sump.

TrenchDrain Installed in New Bedford, MA
TrenchDrain is installed around the utlities in the basement. If the water tank were to ever floor or leak it would be contained. The water would go in through the grates which connect to the WaterGuard and would be draining to the sump pump.
