John's Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This homeowner had a different company come in and install a basement waterproofing system. Unfortunately, their system did not hold and this basement became overflowed with water. The homeowner wanted a solution that would control the passage of water and have it directed out of their basement. They called John's Waterproofing to discuss their options and how it would be possible. We suggested doing a full basement waterproofing system, which includes installing a WaterGuard drainage system. To install the WaterGuard, first we have to jackhammer a trench along the interior perimeter of the basement. Once that is done, then we can install our WaterGuard in the trench. It is lined with gravel in order to filter the water that comes in. It is then connected to a TripleSafe sump pump which collects all the water that the WaterGuard sends in and pushes it out and away from the homes foundation. The WaterGuard has holes on top that can even collect water that stream down the foundation walls through cracks. We put inspection ports at the top of the system so that when we come to do annual maintenance it is an easy check to see if there are any clogs or problems without having to completely dig the system up. Once the WaterGuard is fully installed, our team covers it completely with concrete to give it a discreet look. Now the basement has a drainage system installed that will collect any water that tries to seep through and send it away from the homes foundation. 

This homes basement had some water stains along the foundation walls and the owners kept all items out of this basement due to the water that would puddle. To make this space usable once again, they called up John's Waterproofing and discussed options, landing on a full waterproofing system to keep the space dry year round. We installed a WaterGuard drain system around the interior perimeter which collects and guides the water to the lowest point. Here we install our TripleSafe sump pump to then pump the water safely away from the home to a LawnScape outlet. The space will remain unfinished so the walls had a CleanSpace wall system installed. To complete the job we installed a SaniDry dehumidifier to keep the moisture in the air properly controlled. 

This home in West Salem was damp and smelled moist and our inspector found that water was moving from a small shed attached to the house and into the finished basement. Our crews came in and installed a great trench drain on the exterior as well as an interior drainage system to handle the large amounts of ground water in the house. Our team also installed ThermalDry wall to insulate the space prior to the homeowner putting up sheet rock. 

We always make sure that our pumps and everything else we install is running up to speed when we go out to service our customers' systems. But, we also take pride in how our work looks. You will always have a cleaner looking pump when we are done servicing it. 

This customer tried to fix their crawlspace on their own with a sump pump in a five-gallon bucket. But, water was still collecting in multiple areas of the crawlspace and further causing more moisture. So they gave us a call to install a new drainage system to properly drain the water out of the crawlspace and to add in a vapor barrier.
