Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Making the Basement Dry All of the Time - Albany, OR

This basement had a general grade to a single drain in the floor. For the most part this helped to keep the space dry. The homeowners also painted on a waterproof paint to help keep water from coming up through the floor. But water is persistent and where the water flows often, the paint buckles and peels. To keep the space dry all of the time, they need a system up for the job, and they call upon John's Waterproofing. We install a WaterGuard drainage system, TripleSafe sump pump, and install our BrightWall paneling. Now the homeowners can enjoy a dry basement all of the time, no more waiting for the paint to peel.

Old Drain and Peeling Paint

The drain is rusted and will back up during heavy rains, the paint peels up where the foundation remains damp.

Water Damage along the Foundation Wall

The dampness is easily spotted, water comes up along the wall here the most often, causing the paint to buckle and chip.

Installing a Drainage System

We install a full interior perimeter drainage system with our BrightWall paneling to nab the water and moisture.

Covering up the WaterGuard

After installing the drain system, we cover it all, leaving a nice finish to the floor.

TripleSafe Sump Pump

The WaterGuard ensures the water all is sent to the new TripleSafe sump pump to then be sent safely out and away from the home's foundation.
