Basement Waterproofing Markham

Also known as interior waterproofing is another approach to solving the wet basement problem. It typically involves applying a waterproof coating or membrane to the inside of the basement. Following the interior waterproofing methodology, the water is channeled with a weeping tile to the sump pump that pumps the water from the basement outside. This method is technically not waterproofing, but rather a technique designed to manage basement water.

A sump pump is a device used to remove water that has accumulated in a sump pit or basin, typically found in basements or crawl spaces of buildings. Its primary function is to prevent flooding and water damage by pumping water away from the building's foundation. The sump pump is typically installed in a specially constructed pit or basin called a sump pit. Water enters the pit through drains or natural groundwater infiltration. When the water level in the pit reaches a certain threshold, a float or pressure sensor activates the sump pump & it pumps the water out of your basement.
