Job Stories From Howell, MI
Settled House in Howell, MI has WaterGuard Installed to Ensure No Water Leaks Into Home

A family in Howell, MI had been dealing with recurring basement water problems for years. Their home had experienced some settling over time, leading to water pooling in specific areas of the basement. The situation worsened during the winter months when melting snow and ice would seep through the concrete walls, leaving the basement constantly wet and causing the sump pump to run incessantly. Frustrated with the persistent issues, they decided it was time to seek assistance. This led them to reach out to us for a permanent solution that would resolve their basement waterproofing problems. 

After a thorough inspection, our Project Manager recommended they install the WaterGuard system to address the homeowners basement water issues. The WaterGuard system is an interior drainage system designed to capture water seepage and direct it away from the foundation, keeping the basement dry and safe. Its design allows it to sit on top of the foundation footing, preventing clogs and ensuring proper water drainage.

The first step in the installation process involved excavating a small trench around the perimeter of the basement's interior walls. Our crew carefully removed a strip of flooring to create space for the WaterGuard system. They ensured that the trench was sloped towards the sump pump, guaranteeing proper water flow. With the trench prepared, our crew proceeded to lay the drainage channel into the trench, ensuring a secure fit against the walls and connecting each of the sections as necessary. Our crew also had to make precise cuts and modifications to accommodate corners, columns, and other obstacles in their basement. Once the WaterGuard system was in place, our crew backfilled the trench with clean gravel to provide additional support and facilitate proper drainage. Then they replaced the flooring, leaving only a small gap to allow water to enter the WaterGuard system.

After completing the installation, the homeowners were finally free from the worries of a perpetually damp basement. The WaterGuard captured and redirected water away from the foundation, preventing further water damage and eliminating the need for constant sump pump operation.

Leaking Basement in Howell, MI Solved with WaterGuard Drainage System

A homeowner in Howell, MI was looking to remodel their basement and turn it into an extra room for the family to spend time in, before they could begin the renovations, they were experiencing water leaking through the block foundation wall that buckled a few years back. Needing to address this issue before they could begin working on the project, this homeowner searched for basement waterproofing services nearby, which led them to contact HomeSpec BasementFix for this job. 

A Project Manager who was experienced in basement waterproofing solutions, was sent to Howell to provide a free detailed inspection of the basement and go over the homeowners concerns in more detail. Upon arriving at the property, the Project Manager proposed the use of a proper drainage system to address this waterproofing need with the WaterGuard solution. Upon recommending the system to the homeowners, the Project Manager had our customer care team schedule out an installation date for our crew. 

Traditional drainage systems are installed in an area that is prone to clogging; this “mud zone” is usually what causes the drain system to clog and then unsuccessfully drain the water into the sump pump and flood the basement. The WaterGuard Drainage System solves this homeowner's basement waterproofing problem by sitting on top of the foundation footing, preventing it from getting clogged and allowing the water to successfully drain into the sump pump. This french drain system is an ideal solution to basement waterproofing because the minimal invasion to the concrete slab is quick and easy to install with a lifetime warranty.

With the homeowners fears put to rest, they could begin their renovations with confidence knowing they had a permanent solution to their basement waterproofing problem.

Concrete Around Home PolyLeveled in Howell, MI

The concrete walkway, driveway and porch around this customer's home were extremely cracked and uneven - causing a tripping hazard. The porch was also sinking and pulling away from the home. This problem was very unsightly so the homeowner finally decided to get it repaired, but he didn't want to do mudjacking. 

Our concrete experts used PolyLevel to permanently solve this homeowner's problem. As the soil under the concrete shrinks, settles, or washes away, it allows the slabs to sink - but our polyurethane foam fills in those gaps and lifts the slabs. The homeowner was worried about how the foam interacts with the environment, but we assured him it was completely safe (read more here). 

The homeowner was so happy that he was able to use his driveway and walkway the same day the repairs were done, and he didn't have to completely replace the concrete - saving him so much time and money.
