Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This homeowner’s basement was flooded because the sump pump had stopped working while they were finishing it with drywall. They didn't want anything else to be ruined. We used the WaterGuard system with full-height CleanSpace, which would provide the best protection for the walls and drywall and prevent the mold you can see in the "before" picture from entering their home. We also installed a TripleSafe sump system to protect them if their pump ever fails.

This homeowner wanted to keep his basement dry because he had been struggling with water sitting in his basement. He had used our services previously, so he knew just who to call when he needed waterproofing solutions.

We sent Service Technician Michael Holtzbauer to inspect the basement and determine what was causing water to get into the homeowners basement. Michael found that there were no waterproofing systems in place to protect the homeowner's basement, so water was not leaving the basement once it got in. Also, Michael saw that the drainage system was not pumping water out of the drains as they easily froze over in the winter and prevented water from getting out. Michael discussed with the homeowner some options for waterproofing as well as fixing the small drainage system, and the homeowner decided to start with fixing the drainage system. Our installation team installed 2 TripleSafe Sump Pump Systems included 4 IceGuards which protect the sump pump from freezing over in the winter. These sump pumps will also help to pump water out of the basement as opposed to the previous drainage system which only ran water downhill.

The homeowner was thrilled with the final product and he already notices the difference in water getting out of his basement. Check out the new outdoor draining transformation!

Julie, a relatively new homeowner, had a strong desire to renovate her basement but realized that addressing the water issue was a prerequisite. Initially, Julie had contacted us for a concrete appointment, as the lack of proper sealing against the home was resulting in water infiltration into the basement. She suspected that the water was entering through the unsealed joints, causing moisture-related problems. Furthermore, the existing Waterguard system had become ineffective over time, leading to water seepage onto the carpet.

To tackle these challenges comprehensively, our team implemented a series of solutions. Firstly, we installed a full perimeter Waterguard system around the foundation to effectively manage water intrusion. Additionally, a new sump pump was installed in the pit to enhance water drainage. Lastly, we sealed the joints against the house using Nexus Pro, a reliable sealing product, to prevent water from infiltrating the basement.

By undertaking these measures, we ensured that Julie's basement was prepared for the desired renovations. The installation of the Waterguard system, along with the new sump pump and joint sealing, addressed the water-related issues, providing a secure and dry environment for future basement remodeling projects.

Water was coming into this customer's home from the corner of the house, and they couldn't figure out why. We resolved the issue by using our waterproofing system, Waterguard, and CleanSpace.

Our customer reached out to us when she noticed that her son's room had a water problem. To stop this, we used two products: WaterGuard and CleanSpace. WaterGuard captures water seepage through walls and leaks along the wall/floor joint. It's discreet and easy to install. It's also made of durable plastic that lasts without corrosion or decay. CleanSpace is a vapor barrier that prevents moisture from rendering through the walls. This stops issues like rot, mold, rust, odors, and pests. It also acts as an air barrier, making the crawl space more temperature-controlled for warmer floors and lower energy bills. CleanSpace also hinders the movement of harmful gases like radon. When combined with a radon mitigation system, it creates a safer and healthier living environment. By using WaterGuard and CleanSpace, we successfully addressed the water infiltration problem in the finished room.
