The Problem: Moisture Intrusion and Foundation Risk

The basement had visible signs of moisture, including:

Damp walls and flooring
Musty odors throughout the home
Water entering after heavy rains

In Midland, soil conditions and water pressure often lead to basement leaks if not properly managed.

The Inspection: Diagnosing the Cause

Our team identified several contributing factors:

Hydrostatic pressure forcing water into the basement
Small cracks in the foundation walls
Ineffective drainage around the home

These issues required a comprehensive waterproofing approach.

The Solution: Interior Drainage and Sump Pump System

Legacy Supportworks installed a customized system to eliminate water intrusion:

Perimeter Drainage System: Redirects water away from the basement
Sump Pump Installation: Automatically removes water buildup
Wall Sealing: Prevents further moisture penetration

The Result: A Protected and Dry Basement

Following installation, the homeowner experienced a completely dry basement—even after significant rainfall. The home is now protected from future damage.
