A basement drainage system is a customized system designed to the specifications of your home. A basement drains or drainage system aims to keep your basement dry and protect everything in it from water damage. A flooded basement or water pooling around your home’s foundation can cause cracks in your walls and foundation, bowing or uneven walls, damaged or warped flooring, structural instability, and mold and mildew growth. Most foundation and basement drainage systems can’t prevent flooding, but they do mitigate the risk of standing water in your basement or around your foundation. The most common foundation and basement drainage solutions are exterior basement drains, interior French drains, floor drains, and sump pumps. Our experienced technicians will assess your home’s architecture, condition, and foundation to determine the right drainage system for you.
