John's Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This homeowner had their crawlspace encapsulated, and to help the job suit their homes needs, they opted to have the space air sealed instead of applying spray foam to the entirety of the foundation walls. Air sealing keeps critters and bugs from creeping into the space, and keeps water and cool drafts from entering the space. 

This homeowner decided that they were ready to finish their basement and have it be as a usable space. Upon researching the steps towards finishing their basement, they noticed some water damage and reached out to John's Waterproofing. The homeowner agreed to doing a basement waterproofing and prep the space before doing the full basement renovation. In order to properly waterproof and prevent against future water damage, we applied a ThermalDry vapor barrier along the walls which is a waterproof material that can help securely flow water to the drainage system. Our drainage system, WaterGuard, is installed along the interior perimeter of the basement that collects water to send to the TripleSafe sump pump. With the sump pump it can safely pump water away from the homes foundation to properly protect and waterproof the basement so it is ready for the next steps to finish the basement.

This home had an addition added back in 2019 and noticed that the floors were starting to sag. They went and inspected the crawl space beneath this addition and found that the wooden posts were in bad condition. Water had seeped through and was absorbed into the wooden posts and beams that were supposed to be providing support for the foundation. Worried that the issue would worsen, the homeowner called John's Waterproofing. We were able to stabilize this part of the house by installing 3 SmartJacks and 10 feet of steel beams. SmartJacks are steel adjustable piers that are designed to offer support in areas where the wooden posts no longer can. They are made of material that won't rot or grow mold, making them able to withstand any environment. Luckily, by installing these SmartJacks and steel beams, we were able to resolve the support issues and the homeowner won't have to worry about sagging floors.

This home's old insulation was a mess, it was damp and drooping. The home's heating and cooling costs kept going up. To address these issues, the homeowners called up John's Waterproofing. We scheduled their free inspection and went out to help. We ended up doing a full encapsulation. This includes TerraBlock insulation along the dirt floor, SilverGlo along the walls, and Spray From to air seal and insulate the foundation between joists. 

Before came this customer had a makeshift sump pump and an unusable area. Our team installed a new Super Sump with alarm as well as our Everlast wall. This home now has a clean workable space as well as added storage for their home.
