Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Waterproofing in Memphis, TN: TripleSafe Sump Pump and WaterGuard Save Home from Severe Flooding
Allen D. of Memphis, TN had experienced not one, but two major basement floods within a six-month span—one so severe the water reached hip level. His existing sump pump setup was outdated and inadequate, with water being discharged out a basement window and pooling into the driveway. The ongoing threat of water damage, mold, and structural issues made it clear: Allen needed a reliable, long-term basement waterproofing solution.
To protect the home and prevent future flooding, we recommended a comprehensive system tailored to Allen’s needs. This included installing a TripleSafe sump pump system for unmatched reliability, paired with WaterGuard interior drainage to capture and redirect water before it reaches the basement floor. To further shield the space, BrightWall panels were installed on three of the four basement walls—excluding the stair wall—to add a clean, water-resistant barrier. Due to the condition of the existing stairs, we advised caution when accessing that area.
The discharge strategy was also carefully designed to move water away from the home effectively. The system will route discharge through the basement window into underground piping, extending five feet before turning at an elbow and continuing another 45 feet into the backyard—ending in a ditch for safe drainage. This project gives Allen the peace of mind he deserves, knowing his basement is protected from future storms and flooding.
