Fairmont, MN Basement Goes from Flooded to Fully Protected

This homeowner in Fairmont, MN had a basement that just wouldn’t stay dry. After every heavy rain, water would flood in along the floor edges and through the block walls, leaving puddles, musty odors, and constant frustration. The space was unusable and the homeowner was tired of the ongoing cleanup and concern about long-term damage.

When we inspected the basement, it was clear the problem was due to hydrostatic pressure and poor drainage around the foundation. The solution? A permanent interior waterproofing system, including a reliable sump pump.

We installed our WaterGuard drainage system, which captures water at the perimeter before it can reach the basement floor. To further protect the space and improve air quality, we installed CleanSpace vapor barrier on the walls, sealing out moisture and preventing it from entering the living space. And to make sure any collected water gets pumped out efficiently, we installed our reliable SuperSump sump pump system, designed to handle high volumes of water with built-in backup options.

Now, this Fairmont basement is dry, clean, and ready to be used without worry. No more flooding. No more musty smells. Just a healthier, safer home.
