This is one of the first steps in an interior basement waterproofing project: opening up the floor along the foundation. Our crew is excavating the interior of the basement to create the space needed for the new waterproofing and drainage system.
By working directly along the inside of the foundation, we can install a waterproofing membrane that helps collect and control moisture before it becomes a bigger problem in the finished basement. The excavation also gives us the access needed to properly install the drainage system and connect it to the sump pump.
It’s not the cleanest stage of the project, but there’s a reason for all the digging. Once the waterproofing system is installed and everything is put back together, the work happening below the finished floor will be helping protect the basement from unwanted water.
