Basement Waterproofing, Sump Pump & Interior Rebuild in Sherborn, MA

WaterTite Company rebuilt a leaking, mold-affected basement room in Sherborn, MA. The work included exterior foundation waterproofing, a sump pump, new framing, closed-cell spray foam and an interior finish with luxury vinyl plank flooring and a large bypass-door closet.

The Challenge

This Sherborn basement had a leaking foundation and mold in the finished room. The project required demolition of the room, foundation waterproofing and sump pump installation, followed by a full interior rebuild. The storage layout also changed: two existing closets were combined into one large closet with bypass doors.
