What a waterproofing work order is for

Basement jobs happen inside a lived-in house: jackhammers, dust, wheelbarrows of concrete through the kitchen. A work order with the walls to trench, the sump spot, the discharge route and the dust plan keeps the crew efficient and the homeowner's house clean. It also records the test at the end, which the warranty depends on.

What to put on a waterproofing work order

  • Walls to trench and footage.
  • Sump location and discharge route.
  • Dust walls and floor protection.
  • What to move or protect.
  • Electrical outlet for the pump.
  • Test before leaving.

Put the debris route and the dedicated outlet in site notes. A pump plugged into the same circuit as the freezer is a callback waiting to happen.

FAQ

What should a waterproofing work order include?

Walls and footage, the sump and discharge route, dust and floor protection, items to move, the pump outlet, and a test before leaving.

Why photograph the trench before patching?

Photos show the drain tile and gravel were installed properly, which supports the warranty and answers questions later.

How do I control dust on a basement job?

Plastic dust walls, floor protection on the path out, and a debris route that avoids living spaces. Write the plan on the work order.

Should the pump have its own outlet?

A dedicated circuit is good practice and avoids tripped breakers. Note the outlet plan for the crew and any electrician.
