Interior Waterproofing in East York

Project Overview.

An East York homeowner living in one of the area’s older character homes started noticing water seeping along the basement floor after routine rainfall. Because the home’s original foundation had never been updated, they reached out to Aquatech for a full interior waterproofing solution – one built to handle the aging foundation without disturbing the home’s original landscaping.

Challenges:

  • Water Seepage in an Older Home: The aging foundation was allowing water to seep through during routine rainfall.
  • Outdated Foundation Never Updated: The home’s original construction had no modern waterproofing system in place.
  • Preserving the Property’s Character: The homeowner wanted to avoid disrupting the mature landscaping and layout of their older lot.
  • Preventing Mold in a Family Home: With growing moisture concerns, the family needed a fast, reliable fix to protect their living space.

Materials Used

  • DMX Drain 5M interior drainage system
  • Liberty sump pump
  • Sump pit
  • Hydro Guard Pro Series vapor barrier
  • Delta-MS dimpled membrane
  • Hydraulic cement for crack sealing

Solutions Implemented:

  1. Initial Inspection: We inspected the basement thoroughly to identify where water was entering and how severe the damage was.
  2. Interior Drainage System Installation: We installed a drainage system along the basement perimeter to intercept water before it could cause damage.
  3. Sump Pump Installation: We installed a reliable sump pump to actively remove any collected water and keep the basement dry.
  4. Crack and Joint Sealing: We sealed all cracks and potential entry points to stop moisture from getting through the walls.
  5. Vapor Barrier Application: Finally, we applied a vapor barrier to block moisture and prevent future dampness.
