Basement Remodel — Waterproofing Day 2

Friday, May 9th, 2008

Day 2 went rather smoothly. By midmorning they had filled in the holes with the drainage tile and the rocks.  They also had rerun the sump pump outside too.  I am not sure why but it stunk really bad while doing all this.

After their lunch break, they finished laying the concrete.  I have to admit that I am impressed with the work that was done.  It looks great and this should solve all of our water issues.

The Basement Remodel — Waterproofing

Monday, May 5th, 2008

I snuck downstairs while they were on break today to see the progress that was being made.  Here are couple of pictures of what it looks like when they need to install drainage tile in your basement:

It doesn’t look like much, but I have been listening to jackhammering all morning.  Tomorrow, they are suppose to be finishing the job, so we should have the new sump pump, new drainage tile, new concrete where they dug, and they are redoing the outside where it comes out.  Good times. :)
