Basement Waterproofing in Belmont, New Hampshire.
A homeowner in Belmont, New Hampshire, sat in the basement of his home. As the rain grew louder and louder, he knew it was only a matter of time before his old rusty sump pump would fail. With each load of water that the old pump struggled to pump-out, he thought of how many hours and hours of his life that were wasted cleaning up water in his basement. You see, by now, that old rusty sump pump has failed, much like it has every time, and this unfortunate homeowner has a basement full of water. He'll sometimes spend up to five hours cleaning up the mess left behind by the pool of water.
Well, this time, the homeowner was fed up. He decided to no longer waste any time cleaning up water, he was going to get this fixed; and fixed the right way.
He made a phone call to a long-time friend, who happened to be in the construction & concrete industry for over 30 years and now owned their own company. He told his friend what was happening in his basement every time it rained and asked if his company could do the job for him. The homeowner's friend told him his company did not do such specialized projects, but would highly recommend Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems. The friend had used Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems to waterproof many projects for his company through the years and always had outstanding quality results.
Having a fantastic recommendation, from a close friend, made choosing Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems a natural and confidant choice for the homeowner in Belmont, New Hampshire. The homeowner called 855-dry-time and set up a free estimate with a System Design Specialist.
After the inspection, the System Design Specialist goes over a custom waterproofing plan to address the multiple areas of the basement where the water was entering.
Matt's team of highly trained, certified waterproofers went to work right away to make sure this homeowner would never waste another day of his life cleaning up water in the basement. First, a Clean Space Wall System goes along the entire perimeter walls of the basement. Next, a trench dug to install a full perimeter Water Guard Drainage System. The Clean Space will tie into the Water Guard, doing this allows both the water entering via wall seepage and water entering up through hydrostatic pressure to flow to the newly installed, Triple Safe Sump Pump. Unlike the old insufficient sump pump, the Triple Safe Sump Pump has three separate pumps. The Zoeller M53 pumps up to 2,220 gallons per hour, and the Zoeller M98 pumps up to 3,900 gallons per hour. The third pump is a battery back-up. This pump will kick on in the event of a power outage and provides owners will nice ease of mind. The Triple Safe will then pump water out of the basement through discharge lines and discharge away from the basement.
The homeowner now has a healthy, clean, dry useable basement. Best of all, anytime it rains, the owner no longer worries about a pool of water to clean up in his basement.
