Is a common solution during new construction an exterior drain tile system?
If my home has an exterior drain tile system, why do I still have a water problem in my basement? It is very common for an exterior drain tile system (commonly known as pipe and stone) to fill with silt. The water enters from the over dig on the exterior of the house and the silt settles down into the stone, plugging the pipe over time. The only sure way to guarantee this is to use a patented non-clog interior basement waterproofing system produced by Midwest Basement Technologies.
