What Is a Baseboard Water System?

A baseboard water system is a surface-level drainage channel that runs along the base of your basement walls. It collects incoming water and directs it to a sump pump, keeping your basement dry and protected without major demolition.

Is a Baseboard System Right for You?

It’s a great fit if you have:

  • Water coming in at the base of basement walls
