Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

The homeowners were using their basement and were tired of moisture issues. We installed our brightwall system and waterproofed their basement so they can comfortabllty use it year round.

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. 

The customer had a damp basement that they wanted dry and clean. 

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 basement area was once a dirty place for the water heater. Our team fixed their leaky walls, installed ThermalDry and a Sump Pump. This ugly, dark area was once dreaded. Now it is not only beautiful but has provided the family with more living space and functionality. It's amazing what a transformation wall systems can make
