Basement waterproofed in Greeneville, TN
Challenge
James, a retired veteran and woodworking enthusiast from Greeneville, TN, was eager to renovate his cherished basement man cave. However, during the process, he uncovered a troubling issue—mold growth along the walls and clear signs of water intrusion hidden beneath the wooden planks. Concerned about the health risks and structural safety of his home, James reached out to Master Services for expert help. After scheduling an appointment, our home inspector visited James' property and quickly identified water infiltration as the root cause of the mold growth.
Solution
To resolve the issue, we developed a comprehensive waterproofing plan. This included installing our reliable WaterGuard perimeter drainage system, which required breaking sections of the existing tile flooring to make room for the system. The WaterGuard collects and redirects water, preventing pooling in the basement.
For added protection, we installed the TripleSafe sump pump, equipped with three layers of defense to ensure water stays out, even during power outages or heavy rainfall. To further safeguard the basement, our team applied the CleanSpace vapor barrier to the walls. This durable barrier prevents moisture from seeping through, improving air quality and reducing the risk of mold and unpleasant odors.
Understanding James' plans to reinstall new tiles, our crew carefully left the concrete at the perfect height, ensuring the flooring could be restored seamlessly.
When James saw the results, he was thrilled. His basement was now dry, clean, and safe. Ready to reclaim as his man cave, James expressed gratitude for our professionalism and the swift resolution, sharing how the results brought him peace of mind and excitement to begin his next chapter of projects.
