Basement Waterproofing Techniques That Really Work

!: Basement Waterproofing Techniques That Really Work

Having dampness or water in your basement can be a real problem and a difficult one to conquer. Unfortunately, there are numerous reasons why a basement is wet, and the culprit in your own home will seldom be the result of only one of these problems. You may be dealing with several challenges when you tackle the water problems in your basement. However, as long as you're acquainted with the various basement waterproofing techniques that are available to help you, you should eventually be successful in your endeavor.

One of the most common methods of waterproofing a basement is the installation of a sump pump. These little machines are installed in a pit in your basement floor and eliminate groundwater coming up into your basement. If you need to install the entire pit, this can be a time-consuming project. If you're lucky, your home was constructed with a pit already roughed in just in case. If not, you're going to have to dig a hole in the floor and install a formed-plastic pit so that you'll have a place to house your sump pump. Some of the sump pumps that are available on the market today have back-up batteries which will help keep your basement dry should the power go out. These little pumps do an excellent job of directing water away from your basement.

Your wetness problems may not be as simple as just installing a sump pump, however. Instead, you may have water seeping in through basement walls. There are a number of products available that you can use to paint your walls which will block the cracks and holes that are allowing the water to seep in. In more extreme cases, you may actually have to excavate around the outside of your foundation so that you can paint the exterior of the walls with a waterproof coating, too.

Instead of painting walls, there are felt and fabric products available that you can glue on your walls as barriers to water seeping in. Although this process works quite well, it is very expensive to have done, and if it should spring a leak later on, it can be very difficult to find.

Understanding Interior Basement Waterproofing - Sump Pump Basin

!: Understanding Interior Basement Waterproofing - Sump Pump Basin

There are many different names given by many different companies to the Sump Pump Basin. The simple fact is that it is the object that holds the sump pump under your basement floor.

Specially designed holes along a few sides will allow water into the basin. This helps to remove water under the floor slab and keep the pump actively touching moist soil. It's your first line of defense against water rising from under your basement floor.

The sump pump basin is also the center of the system. All drainage pipes and tiles will be connected to this area. It is the final stop for the water before being removed through the sump pump discharge line that runs out of your home.

Things to be aware of about your sump pump basin:

1.) The total height of the basin cannot be dug further than 2 Feet under your basement floor. This is because digging further can interrupt and remove soil that supports the foundation called the Zone of Influence. Installing a basin this deep can cause water to carry with it the dirt needed in this area for support as well as to physically interrupt the soil.

2.) There should only be drain holes built into the basin on the inward facing sides of the basin. This, again, is to limit the amount of soil that gets moved from underneath your foundation. It also helps to specifically target any water seepage or build up under your basement floor that might have been causing floor cracks.

3.) The basin should have a sealed solid lid. This is a simple request, but many designs do not have this in mind. It closes off the unit, quiets the sump pump, limits the amount of water that can evaporate into your basement, and makes the unit safe to have. Having a cover keeps people from falling in, objects in your basement from falling and logging your pump, hurting children and if the pump ever has a cord issue, electrocution.

4.) There should be options to where and how to connect the drain system to the sump pump basin. This allows you to have more options on how and in what directions to pitch the drain to allow for the best water flow through the pipes.

5.) The pump stand which supports the sump pump should be built into the basin. If there is an option to get a stand installed into the basin it means 2 things: A.) They're trying to sell you something else, and B.) The basin is too deep in the first place to be installed in the foundation. Newly designed sump pump basins will have the pump stand built into the unit.
