Black Mountain Basement Leak
Black Mountain Basement Leak
Residential · Basement leak · Rub-R-Wall membrane · PVC drainage
Water from a stream and the AC lines was pooling at one corner of this Black Mountain home and leaking into the basement. Redirecting that water and installing a full exterior basement waterproofing system stopped the leak in one week.
Location
Black Mountain, NC
Scope
Full exterior system
Duration
1 week
Products
Rub-R-Wall, PVC drainage
The Problem
A stream runs behind the house, and the AC unit’s lines drained straight to the same back corner. All that water pooled against the foundation and leaked into the basement.
Sealing the wall alone wouldn’t have been enough. The water needed somewhere else to go.
The Work Performed
Excavation
Stream runoff + AC lines redirected
Wall prep
Thoroseal coat
Rub-R-Wall membrane
Insulation sheets
PVC drainage installed
Backfill + final grading
The Results
No more basement leaks. The stream runoff and AC lines now drain away from the house instead of pooling at the foundation.
With the wall sealed, new PVC drainage and a positive grade, this Black Mountain basement stays dry.
