There is a lot of information available concerning the water-proofing of a basement. All sorts of things are recommended from “waterproofing” paint to digging up the outside perimeter of the home to re-tar the foundation. But more often it comes down to this: FRENCH DRAIN with SUMP PUMP.

What is commonly called a French Drain is what we call a Bonded Deep Channel Pressure Relief System. This is because it relieves the hydrostatic pressure (water pressure) from the footing area. The system is designed prevent water from flooding your basement. It is installed inside the basement, below the floor, around the perimeter. This French Drain controls the water, delivers it to the sump pump(s), and discharges it out of the house. This system comes with a lifetime guarantee that your basement floor will not have any water on it.
