Mikes 1000Sf Basement: Unconventional Waterproofing
In this location, the water table is quite high.. I mean really high.. The home owner had window well’s that weren’t draining for weeks on end, but a foundation that didn’t appear to be leaking. The solution here was to Hydrovac the window wells out, auger underneath the foundation, and plumb to the existing weeper system on the home’s interior. Unconventional? Oh ya.. but back in the 1950’s, weepers consisted of Clay pipe, no filter cloth, and very minimal gravel. They were also commonly used to control ground water only, rather than the exterior hydraulic pressure that landlords with finished basements understand all to well. In short.. We fix.
testimonials:
“I can move on with confidence”
“Thank you for your service. It was satisfying to be treated professionally and courteously at all times by you after being treated like a second class citizen by creditors. I can move on with confidence.”
“Proved to be the most helpful”
“This was the first time we had to sell, coupled with the complication of going through the splitting of finances. We came across the RW Carr Investment Co. website and saw the ‘Services’ section with ‘We Buy Houses Fast’. He proved to be the most helpful, efficient and professional in explaining, and carrying out the process. He was also supportive both before and after the sale.”
“Thank you!”
“This was the only sale we had had to make since we lived in our home for 43 years. Ryan was always very quick to respond to everything we asked and explained them in detail. The whole closing process went very smoothly. Certainly can recommend him highly.”
