This charming home has a beautiful stone fireplace and a hand crafted crown ceiling design seen only in very few newly constructed homes. You may see from the above photos an example of the preparation that goes into a dry basement! Firstly, a "V" grove is carved into the footer in order to knit the foundation into the footer. Then a water resistant coating is put on the outside of the foundation that will be covered with the surrounding ground. An exterior perimeter drain is installed around the outside of the foundation to catch any water that may want to filtrate down from the surface toward the footer. In addition ~ an interior perimeter drain is installed on the inside of the foundation to catch any subsurface water that may want to make it's way toward the basement floor. These two perimeter drains are joined to enter into the sump pump pit to be bilged back out to the adjacent surface which then drains away from the home. The interior perimeter drain also acts as a collector for any radon gas that may surface under the home and acts a method of release.
