Interior Drain Tile for Genesee homes
Genesee is open countryside in the middle of Waukesha County, with rolling Kettle Moraine hills and homes set on big lots. Many of those houses sit on a rise or into a hillside with a walkout basement. The land is beautiful, and it also moves a lot of water. After a thaw or a summer downpour, runoff travels a long way across open fields and lawns, and a house on the slope is often the first thing standing in its path.
That water soaks into the clay beside the foundation and sits there. Clay drains slowly, so the soil stays heavy against the wall for days after the rain stops, and the pressure pushes water in where the floor meets the wall. Interior drain tile gives it a way out. A trench along the inside of the walls, perforated pipe in washed gravel, and a sump crock with a pump and battery backup together keep the pressure off your floor.
On a large Genesee lot, the discharge line can carry pumped water well away from the house and downhill, which helps it stay gone. The install is done from inside, so there's no excavation across your yard. Our crew is based in Waukesha, close by. Nick or Luis will look at your basement, show you where the water gets in, and give you a written quote. When the Town of Genesee requires a permit, we pull it.
