Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This customer reached out regarding an old sump that was in need of replacing. We replaced the old pump with our TripleSafe sump pump that has triple the protection and keeps the basement dry. It is a three-pump system that assures protection and can handle high volumes of water and will keep operating even during a power outage. 

In this unfinished basement, a vertical crack was found, but no bowing has started. To prevent any further issues, the team installed our FlexiSpan System with Urethane injection, which is designed to permanently stop any water leakage through wall cracks. This three-part process is a fail-safe crack treatment that lets future seepage move down into the basement's sub-floor drain system that connects to the sump pump.

In this basement, the block foundation would leak every time it would rain, and the water would just sit in the corner of the room. We installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier around the block foundation wall that will capture any water that leaks into the home. Then we installed our WaterGuard sub-floor drain system that lies flush below the vapor barrier that carries the captured water into the sump pump system. By getting this system installed the worry of flooding will decrease and the owner will notice that the area is much dry and no more water leaks in the home. 

This customer needed a building code-approved egress window, so we took out their tiny, old window and installed a Rockwell window well with a large out-swing window. Not only does this basement now have more light coming in, but it also has a second way out of the basement in case there is an emergency. Inside the window well, we installed a WellDuct window well drain. The WellDuct directs any water that enters the window well into the existing interior drain tile system.

One common complaint customers have is concerning their basement windows. Oftentimes, the windows allow drafty, wintery air inside.

We installed an all-vinyl, energy-efficient EverLast Basement Window. These windows are airtight but easy to open. When unlocked, both panes can be removed for cleaning or for passing objects through – like a ladder or another item you’d rather not carry through your house. 

We also installed a WellDuct window well drain in the window well outside. This drain is connected to the interior WaterGuard system to prevent window well flooding. Finally, we upgraded their pump to our 1/3 hp Zoeller pump.

This customer is now enjoying a draft-free environment with a look upgrade!
