Photo Album: Interior waterproofing in Hamilton, On
Dave and Katrina have a house in Hamilton, On with a poured concrete foundation. Dave contacted Omni Basement Systems to repair some wall cracks that were leaking because he wanted to finish his basement. When Omni went to perform the crack repair, the team noticed that there were multiple cracks all the way down the wall. The best way to protect the home is to add an internal drainage system with a sump pump. This will cover all the wall cracks and protect them from further cracks. Omni Basement Systems installed WaterGuard as part of the patented drain systems and the incredible SuperSump sump pump system.
