Basements are imperfect concrete structures that are installed in a variety of soil conditions. The presence of water in the subsurface soils presents a challenging condition which often causes the water to enter the basement. This water enters the basement through the walls and floors and is usually seen in joints between them. Over time different contractors and engineers have developed a variety of methods designed to keep these wet basement areas dry.
LJS Construction utilizes a combination of the most successful techniques to allow for the installation of basement waterproofing. The use of waterproofing membranes on the exterior foundation walls assist in the prevention of exterior waters from entering the basement space. Sometimes, it is impossible to prevent this water infiltration.
When water infiltration into the block walls is inevitable, LJS can prevent water atop the basement floor by installing a subsurface waterproofing system. One of the best methods recognized is to install a sub-floor drainage system along the perimeter of the structure. This system is designed to allow for any water which enters the concrete block walls to empty below the floor and then be pumped from the basement to prevent any water from rising atop the floor. LJS utilizes a proven engineered system of subsurface piping and discharge pumps to eliminate the presence of water atop the basement floor.
