John's Waterproofing Before & After Photos

When a family member has asthma, air quality becomes a big concern. This family had worked to create a healthy space in their home, but knew to truly make the space healthier they needed some below grade work. Their crawlspace needed a new vapor barrier every two years as humidity issues would seep through and cause mold growth to occur. While they were on top of treating this, it was a lot of upkeep. To find a long term solution they reached out to John's Waterproofing. We did a full encapsulation, radon mitigation, and the homeowners purchased an Aspen air purifier. Even though the project was only completed a few weeks ago, they have called to say they can already tell that the new system has made a positive change! 

Not only did we make this a large storage space for the family, we removed all the unnecessary pipings and debris. Now the house has clean air and increased square footage which increases their home value! 

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'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.
