Interior Waterproofing in Milton

Project Overview.

A Milton family had just bought a new home and started converting their basement into a living area. However, after a few rainy days, damp spots appeared on the walls and floors. Worried about mold and damage to their newly renovated space, they contacted Aquatech for help. As a result, our team recommended a full interior waterproofing solution: a drainage system, a sump pump, and a vapor barrier to keep the basement dry for years to come.

Challenges:

Damp Spots After Rainfall: Moisture was appearing on the basement walls and floors following rainy days, threatening the newly renovated living space.
Risk to a Newly Renovated Space: With the basement recently converted into a living area, any water damage or mold growth would compromise the family’s investment.
Pinpointing the Source of Infiltration: Diagnostic work was needed to identify the exact areas where water was entering the foundation.
Balancing Effectiveness with Minimal Disruption: The family needed a solution that solved the moisture problem without a lengthy, invasive renovation process.

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:

Initial Inspection: Conducted a detailed inspection of the basement, using diagnostic tools to pinpoint the exact areas where water was infiltrating.
Interior Drainage System Installation: Installed a reliable interior drainage system along the basement perimeter to catch water entering the foundation, even during heavy rain.
Sump Pump Installation: Installed a high-quality sump pump to continually drain any accumulated water from the basement.
Vapor Barrier Application: Applied vapor barriers to prevent moisture from permeating through the walls, adding an extra layer of defense against infiltration.
Ongoing Monitoring Setup: Included a monitoring system so the homeowners could track moisture levels and receive alerts about any future water issues.

After we completed the project, the family finally had a dry, fully usable basement. The persistent dampness was gone. In its place, a reliable drainage system and sump pump now work quietly to keep water out for good.

Because of this, the family gained real peace of mind. They can enjoy their newly renovated basement without hesitation. In addition, the moisture monitoring system gives them an early warning if any issues return in the future. Aquatech backs the work with a lifetime warranty, so the family has lasting confidence that their home is protected for years to come.
