Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

The owner of this restaurant in Elkton, MD reached out to our company looking for help for his wet basement. For as long as his restaurant has been open, he has been getting water in the basement and since the basement always collects water, he could not utilize this large space for much needed storage.

After sending our inspector out to assess this basement, he came up with the best solution to not only keep it dry during rainy weather, but to also make this large basement, a usable space.

This installation consisted of Waterguard and a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier around the full perimeter of the basement, two Triple Safe Sump Pumps with Ultra Sump Battery Back-ups and a Trench Drain. We also removed and hauled away most of the current concrete floor and poured a new concrete pad in its place.

This homeowner called us regarding water intrusion from the basement cement walls and mold started to grow in the area. In order to prevent further water damage to the cellar, we installed our WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system that will capture any type of wall leakage before it hits the floor. This drainage channel is hidden beneath a layer of concrete that flows down and connects to the sump pump system. By installing the WaterGuard system, you will have the certainty of having a dry basement all the time, which will provide peace of mind.

In Elkton, this owner reached out to Basement Systems to install a drain at the bottom of the stairwell entering into the home. We dug out part of the foundation to install our TrenchDrain and tied it into the existing drain tile that runs along under the foundation. Our TrenchDrain is reinforced plastic that won't crack and effectively captures any surface water on the stairway and doorway.

Moisture buildup along the block foundation walls was creating concerns for this unfinished basement in Elkton, MD. We installed a complete waterproofing system featuring WaterGuard drainage, a TripleSafe sump pump, and CleanSpace wall protection. The result is a healthier and more controlled basement environment.
