Basement Waterproofing in Vermont, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts

In Vermont, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts, at Tri-State Basement Systems we understand the nuances of basement waterproofing -- that every home has a unique situation and needs a unique basement waterproofing solution.

Basements are imperfect structures, made from various materials (stone, block, poured concrete, etc.) and built in soils that vary from region to region (clay, sand, ledge, etc.), and rain and ground water causing leaky basements has troubled homeowners forever. Water leaks into the basement through the floors, walls, and joints between them. Over the years, contractors and engineers have developed a wide variety of methods to keep basements dry with varying success.

In the 1980's however, a true basement waterproofing company began designing products and solutions to dry wet basements. The company is Basement Systems Inc., and the authorized dealer in Vermont, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts is Tri-State Basement Systems.

We serve northwestern MA, all of VT (including Montpelier, Brattleboro, Burlington, East Lyndon, St. Albans, and Rutland), and northern and western NH (inlcluding the greater Keene and Laconia areas as well as most of the state).

There are many possible solutions, some of which are more effective than others, including:

• Exterior Excavation
• Interior Subfloor
• Negative-side Sealant

Among the best of these methods is to install an interior subfloor drainage system, such as Basement Systems' patented WaterGuard basement waterproofing system along the perimeter of the floor. There are a few challenges to this method however. One is to keep the drain from being clogged by mud over the years. Many homeowners go years without a basement water problem and then develop one due to the existing sub-floor and sub-surface drains clogging with mud.

Another challenge for subfloor systems is to set up the leak repair system to accept water from the walls without leaving a large unsightly gap at the edge of the floor which can collect dirt and debris from the floor - another potential for clogging the drain.

Basement Systems patented WaterGuard system is designed to meet these challenges and keep your basement dry permanently. WaterGuard is only available from authorized Basement Systems' dealers.
