Upgrading the Crawl Space Vapor Barrier - Salem, OR

This homeowner had their crawl space worked on by a different company and started noticing that water was still intruding. They decided to reach out to John's Waterproofing about upgrading their system so that the crawl space would stay dry. Upon inspection, we discovered the original sump pump wasn't working properly and we suggested a Pipe Pump Plastic system that would keep the space dry without having to worry. The homeowner agreed and we got started. To begin, we needed to remove the previous vapor barrier because it had been destroyed by water flooding in and bringing outside dirt and debris. We even discovered water damage on some of the wooden posts supporting the home because there was no proper drainage system installed. After the vapor barrier was removed, we then installed a new drainage system. This involves laying a perforated pipe along the interior perimeter of the space and connecting it to a new SuperSump Plus sump pump. These two work together to collect water and safely push it out and away from the homes foundation. Lastly, to further protect against water damage, we installed a new vapor barrier. We overlap each seam of the liner so that no groundwater is capable of seeping over top of it and getting into the crawl space. It is installed along the base, up the foundation walls, and between the concrete footing and wooden posts. The goal of the new vapor barrier is to be able to isolate and protect against water from seeping through and causing more structural damage to the home. Now, this homeowner doesn't have to worry about their crawl space flooding.

Soggy Crawlspace in North East Salem

This home in North East Salem had a crawlspace full of water, causing the beams to sag and fail to hold up the foundation properly. This led to cracks in their inside walls. Installation of our Cleanspace encapsulation system and smart jacks helped their crawlspace become a healthy, dry, and easy to work in environment.

Waterguard install in Salem, OR Basement

This basement had water seepage in multiple locations. It already had two sump pumps in place that were not functioning or placed properly. Because of this, the water was still able to leak into the basement. The solution? We installed the Waterguard basement drain system along the entire interior perimeter of the basement and replaced one of the sump pumps with our TripleSafe Sump pump. Since the TripleSafe is a powerful, top of the line pump, we only needed to install one of them. Now, the water will be channeled into the Waterguard and to the sump pump ensuring this home owner that water will never touch the basement floor again!
