Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This crawl space was having trouble with moisture control. We fixed this problem by wrapping the crawl space in our CleanSpace lining, which is able to seal out moisture due to its inorganic composition. We also installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, which is built for keeping large spaces completely dry. We also added some rim joist insulation and some vent covers. Moisture won't be a problem any longer for this crawl space. 

This storm shelter was a 10 foot by 10 foot square, where you had to enter through a trap door. The problem the customer was experiencing with the storm shelter was it was growing mold, and it was at risk for flooding. We fixed these problems by installing WaterGuard drainage all under the perimeter of the interior of the shelter, connecting to a Super Sump sump pump, and CleanSpace matting all over the walls. 

This specific corner of the basement was leaking heavily for this homeowner. You can see from the before picture that the walls were deteriorating from the intruding water, and this was frustrating the homeowner. We installed our patented interior perimeter waterproofing system with the most effective products like; A TripleSafe sump pump, CleanSpace moisture proof walls, and WaterGuard subfloor drains. This waterproofing system helps bring a peace of mind to the homeowner that their basement is protected from water.

Hydrostatic pressure is the most common issue for basements that we see. When your foundation was first built, the builders have to dig up soil around the foundation and then have to backfill back around that foundation with the same soil. Because the soil was dug up, it's not as compact. This creates a clay bowl effect around your home, where water is more inclined to saturate the soil around your foundation because the soil was once broken up. With all this water sitting on the outside of your foundation, it creates a tremendous amount of pressure on the walls. In order to relieve this water pressure, we installed an interior waterproofing system that invites the built up water into the sump pump, and then the sump pump discharges that water far away from the home. We then installed PowerBraces on the bowed wall to make sure the wall is stabilized for good. Lastly, we installed BrightWall panels to cover up the stained block walls.

This basement wall was caving in which is something that needs to be taken pretty seriously. It's important that bowing walls are help up by products that are strong, reliable, and durable, just like our PowerBrace's seen here.
