Installing a Bulkhead

Print VersionBookmarkEmail this page to a friend.
Bulkheads usually come in kits. Lay out the pieces first and follow the directions step by step, and it should only take you four hours or so build. Before you secure all the bolts, make sure the doors close and latch properly. Then seal the base with mortar. Slope the edges to keep your bulkhead watertight and your basement dry.
