Before & After
This Upper Marlboro, MD basement waterproofing project was a unique case because the homeowner was not only dealing with water intrusion in the basement, but also signs of substantial iron ochre deposits. Iron ochre can create a thick, rust-colored buildup that may clog standard drainage systems over time, so this home needed a more specialized basement waterproofing solution. Before the repair, the homeowner was concerned about ongoing water problems, moisture, and the long-term reliability of the basement drainage system.
After completing a full inspection, NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair proposed and installed our WaterGuard IOS system, which is designed to provide a stronger interior drainage solution for challenging basement water issues. We also installed a reliable sump pump system to collect and pump water away from the foundation. Together, the WaterGuard IOS and sump pump system helped address the homeowner’s basement water problems and provide a long-term solution for water intrusion and iron ochre concerns. After the project was complete, the basement was better protected, the drainage system was built for the home’s specific conditions, and the customer had peace of mind knowing their water issues were resolved.
