The Dresher homeowners contacted us after having issue with waterproofing system that another local company installed and the system was starting to fail . The homeowners noticed moisture where the old and new concrete met after heavy rains , also because it was a open drainage system they noticed a damp musty smell in the basement after rains . The last thing they weren’t happy with was cracks throughout all the new concrete that the company installed over their system . So that’s when they decided to call the pros at Jamison Basement Waterproofing.....
This wasn’t the first time we’ve been called to fix the work of another company; it wasn’t even the first time this month. This was one of the worst systems we’ve pulled out, though; at a few places in the basement water was coming up where the old & new concrete meet .
Once the extent of the problem was discovered, we scheduled our waterproofing and foundation crews to work in tandem and get the job done as efficiently as possible. The first step was to open back up the floor and move the waterproofing system off the footer to infront the foundation footer to provide proper pitch ..
We installed a full perimeter of GrateDrain , our below-floor drainage system. The GrateDrain sits below the footer which allows it to collect incoming water and move it fast to the GrateSump...
Now the homeowners has a high efficient waterproofing drain system ..
