Perimeter Drain Tile Installation
Our Peak Basement Systems Waterguard installation crew has draped the entire basement in protective plastic liners because this basement was recently finished. The homeowner said that they wished they had thought of waterproofing prior to finishing the basement with expensive carpet and padding, both of which had to be removed and destroyed due to mold.
Properly trenched and rocked drain tile area
Here's the hallway of the finished basement with the trench going down the side. Once the drain tile has been installed, the Peak Basement Systems crew will cement everything into place. The homeowners will then replace the destroyed carpet and padding and no one will be able to tell that the drain tile is present under the carpet.
