Our drainage system is placed under the floor of basements with the purpose of collecting and discharging all storm water from the basement.
A proper drainage system that can accommodate a high volume of water

of a heavy rainfall or flooding.

Our diverters are strategically installed to maintain open pathways to direct all water into our drainage system. The Polydrain diverters are designed to relieve hydrostatic pressure by facilitating the flow of water and eliminating resistance. Any waterproofing systems without diverters are easily overwhelmed when heavy rainfall occurs, causing failure of the system.

Basement Waterproofing Process
Our moisture barrier consists of a durable non-porous product which is applied to the interior side of the basement / foundation wall. Our moisture barriers prevent all moisture from entering the interior of your basement. Moisture and dampness will continue to be found present within any basement that is waterproofed without a quality moisture barrier.
