Interior Drain Tile Systems

Protect Your Home or Business from Future Flooding

If you’ve ever experienced basement flooding or water damage, you’re not alone. Interior drain tile systems prevent basement flooding by guiding excess water away from the foundation, helping you maintain the structural integrity of the building. Premium Waterproofing installs interior drain tile systems designed to keep your home or business dry.

Standard Interior Drain Tile Systems

Hydrostatic pressure causes water to enter the basement where the floor and wall meet or through any floor cracks that might be present. Installing a standard interior drain tile system with a sump pump will allow an escape path for the water, relieving the hydrostatic pressure, and keeping your floor dry.

Installing an interior drain tile system requires us to cut and remove the concrete floor around the entire perimeter of the basement, approximately 1 foot wide, hand digging the soil 10 inches in depth. We install a 4-inch perforated drain tile covered with 3/4-inch stone and connect the drain tile to the sump pit with the sump pump. We then re-pour new concrete into the entire perimeter of the floor. This is a dusty, dirty job, and dust prevention to protect the rest of the house is the homeowner’s responsibility.

Tips and advice on dust prevention will be given at consult.

Premium Interior Drain Tile System

Block foundation homes with water entering the basement through the floor and the walls will require our premium interior drain tile system to be installed. This is our standard system with three additional steps to control water seeping through block walls. These additional steps require drilling holes at the bottom of each block to relieve pressure, installing a gutter channel system, and installing a vapor barrier to the interior walls.
