[vc_row][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]Another way of basement waterproofing that many contractors will suggest for waterproofing a basement is to install a french drain system along the outside perimeter of your home.To install an exterior French drain, the contractor will take the following steps:
- First, the entire perimeter of your home must be cleared. Gardens, steps, porches, etc., must be removed before the work can begin.
- Next, the contractor will dig around the perimeter of your home. Excavated dirt will be piled around the house.
- The drain will be laid in a bed of stone along the foundation. The stone, and possibly a layer of filter fabric, are there to protect the drain from clogging.
The excavated soil will be “backfilled” on top of the system. In the months following, the soil will all settle.

- Then swap out the image in the top section with a new image like the one below.

Sump Pumps
Sump pumps are one of the most popular basement waterproofing options in New Jersey. These systems keep your home dry by automatically pumping and channeling water away from the foundation. Most sump pumps are installed with a battery backup system that kicks in when the power goes out to prevent flooding in your basement even during a power outage. It is important that any sump pump you have installed is reliable and will protect your home even in the wettest weather.Our team has the experience you need to help you choose the right sump pump for the job. The right sump pump system in your basement can mean the difference between a dry home or thousands of dollars in flood damage. A quality sump pump is an investment that’s worth making to keep your home water free and protected.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”2519″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]
Basement Ventilation Systems
Our team installs the EZ Breath basement ventilation system to keep basements circulated and moisture free. This system is used to pump air out of the basement and draw in refreshed clean air from the rest of your home.Installing a basement ventilation system allows you to have peace of mind that any potentially hazardous materials floating in the air of your basement are safely removed from the home. In addition to this, a basement ventilation system combats the humidity levels in your basement. This effect both improves the air quality of your basement and helps to prevent mold from forming on your basement walls and ceilings. Without a system like the EZ Breath system, humidity and condensation are left to form on all surfaces of your basement which can create a health risk for the entire house.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”2520″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]Mold Testing And Remediation in Watchung, NJ
