Floor Drain
These are often seen installed in older homes as it used to be known as one of the best ways to waterproof a basement. If moisture got in, it could drain out through the ground. Unfortunately, many of these drains have pipes that are made from clay which have since disintegrated in the soil. Additionally, these pipes are known for being prone to clogging. If seepage gets inside and tries to get out through this low-lying area, it may start to back up and back into the home.
Sump Pumps
To take care of the problem, St. Louis Basement Pros recommends installing a newer and more effective waterproofing device that can pump water out and away from the home. These can be installed in the lowest-lying area of the basement in a pit. Drainage pipes will be connected to the basin, and once it reaches a certain level, it will be sent out and away from the home to a safe distance away where it won’t easily be able to get back inside again.

basement waterproofing
The work completed on waterproofing our basement was excellent. Your crew and sales person were all professional and so far after six months with several heavy storms the basement is dry. I appreciate the job you did and would recommend your firm to others in the St. Louis area.
Spray Foam Insulation
The spray foam insulation installers kept me informed of progress. They were honest when they could not access one area of my bay for insulation completion, so we negotiated a price. Excellent communication of job progress!
