BasementGutter™ Interior Drainage System

Struggling with a wet basement is incredibly distressing for homeowners, posing risks to both health and the structural stability of the home. 

Foundation Recovery Systems knows the feeling because we are homeowners ourselves. Our  BasementGutter™ Interior Drainage System is designed to help you maintain a dry and safe basement. 

We are your committed partner in delivering cutting-edge basement waterproofing solutions aimed at permanently resolving water-related concerns. 

Our mission is to bring peace and well-being to each homeowner we work with by ensuring their living space remains dry and healthy. 

What is BasementGutter™ Interior Drainage? 

BasementGutter™ Interior Drainage is a cutting-edge waterproofing system designed to sit on top of the footer along the interior perimeter of your basement.  

Any water entering, either from the walls or where the floor and the wall meet, is directed through the system to the sump pump where it is removed.  

By installing it on top of the footer, and steering clear of the “mud zone,” BasementGutter™ requires very little maintenance as it does not clog. A 3/8” wall flange enables water from the walls to enter the system without any obstruction. 

The system is just a component of a comprehensive home waterproofing approach (although arguably the most important component) that ensures a comprehensively healthy and dry living atmosphere. 

Signs You Need Interior Drainage 

When you encounter the following warning signs, interior drainage may be needed at your home: 

• Water in the basement  
• Moisture on basement walls  
• Window leaks in the basement  
• Heightened basement humidity levels 
• Mold 
• White, powdery substance on concrete surfaces  
• Continuous musty smells  

Call professionals like those at Foundation Recovery Systems when you first notice any of these signs. Quick action can prevent extensive damage and associated costs, maintaining the health and structural integrity of your home. 

Is Interior Drainage Necessary? 

Yes, installing a high-quality interior drainage system is crucial to avoid structural compromises and additional repair costs from secondary issues. 

DIY fixes are not advisable, as wall sealant paint or adding more dirt is only a temporary repair and may possibly cost you more in the long run. Trusted services from Foundation Recovery Systems are essential for long-lasting basement waterproofing solutions.
