Superior Home improvement Contractor in Benton County, OR

A homeowner and his family gave us a call after deciding that they were tired of having puddles of water in their basement. Our crews went out to the home and installed WaterGuard piping system along the perimeter of the basement. WaterGuard intercepts water coming into the basement and drains it safely and unseen away into the sump pump. They also installed a TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe sump pump has three separate pumps. So if the first pump fails, the second one kicks in. Or if there is ever a plumbing leak or too much water for one pump to handle, then the second one will kick on. The third pump, which is battery operated, is there in the event of a power outage. Now this family can enjoy their dry basement for years to come. 

We received a call from a homeowner in Blodgett, Oregon who was frustrated after a power outage had caused his sump pump to fail and his basement to flood. Our crew went out to the home to help. They first installed WaterGuard piping system along the perimeter of the basement. WaterGuard intercepts water coming into the basement through the walls and floors and then drain the water safely and unseen into the sump pump. This homeowner also had a TripleSafe sump pump installed in his basement. The TripleSafe sump pump has three separate pumps to make sure that the homeowner's basement was triple protected. If the primary pump fails or if there is too much water for one pump to handle then the second pump kicks in. Together they can pump 6200 gallons of water per hour out of the basement. The third pump, which is battery operated, is there in case of power outages. Now this homeowner can have peace of mind knowing that his basement will stay dry no matter what the circumstances.

This homeowner was having heating and air conditioning installed and the company they were using suggested that John's Waterproofing seal the homeowner's basement and the homeowner quickly agreed. Our inspector, Jack suggested installing a TripleSafe sump pump, BrightWall Paneling, and a SaniDry dehumidifier.

Manuel and his team promptly set out to waterproof Raymond's basement. They started by installing BrightWall Paneling which transforms ugly, damp basement walls into bright walls that never need paint or other maintenance. BrightWall panels direct wall seepage into a perimeter drain that leads to the Triple Safe sump pump that our team also installed. The TripleSafe sump pump is a three pump system that automatically adjusts to meet pumping requirements. The team installed a SaniDry dehumidifier which creates dry, clean air, and reduces the risk of mold growth while never having to be emptied and is 10x more powerful than traditional dehumidifiers.

After our systems were in place, Raymond is happy with his healthy and clean basement coupled with his new air conditioning system.

These homeowners had water leaking into their basement and wanted to stop the leakage and prevent further damage. Our inspector, Jack suggested our basement finishing systems because their basement was already partially finished. Of our systems, Allen and Meredith chose our Canyon Beige Thermal Dry tiles and Everlast Wall Panels.

Harry and his team swiftly set out to waterproof and finish Allen and Meredith's basement. They installed the Everlast Wall panels, which are neutral-colored wall boards that are immune to mold and moisture damage. We also placed in our Thermal Dry tiles which are beautiful, durable, maintenance-free basement floor tiles. They snap together and come in a variety of colors. The bottom of Thermal-Dry flooring has raised pegs that creates an air space and keeps water vapor from getting trapped under finished floors.

Allen and Meredith are very satisfied with their new finished basement and look forward to no longer having water issues.

Malcolm had an appraisal done on his home and was displeased to find out that there was some standing water on the vapor barrier in his crawl space. He had put in a newer sump pump so he was pretty disappointed when he found out it wasn't working as well as it should be. That's where John's came in! Our team of waterproofing professionals came right out and took care of the situation. The crawl space was cleaned out, the damp insulation was removed. We took care of the sump pump situation and got it installed to where it needed to be and Malcolm now has a dry, clean crawl space that passes inspections and functions to the best of its ability. 

Here at John's Waterproofing Company, we are always happy to help! 

The homeowners noticed that all six of the downspouts on their home had excessive pooling and the corresponding places in their basement were experiencing water issues. The added exterior water pressure was taking its toll, and the homeowners were ready to take the step to address this issue before it persisted, so they called John's Waterproofing. 

To begin this project, we started by adding in underground pipes to divert the downspout water out and away from the home. This would new safely exist via new LawnScape outlets to protect the homes foundation. Since the home had porous concrete walls, we wanted to ensure that any water that still made its way into the basement was properly handled as well. Our install crew broke the concrete flooring along the interior walls enough that we could install a WaterGuard Pipe system. The exterior doorways in the basement had a TrenchDrain installed to combat any excess water that entered through that entryway. This new pipe system pulled the water to the new SuperSump that then took the water out and away from the home. 

The basement is now dry, and the home is no longer experiencing pooling around the homes foundation. 

The homeowner had just moved into their new home. They purchased it new, the grass sod had just been laid down and it was exciting time. After moving in they did notice that the contracting company did not include any waterproofing materials to help protect the home. Since the homeowner had used us at their last home, they wanted to have an expert come and look over their new home so they could have it protected against water damage. They called John's Waterproofing. 

To protect this home we kept it pretty simple. It wasn't in a high water area, but since the soil around the home had been recently dug up, we know that means water will flow to the foundation easier. We added in our crawlspace SmartSump pump and laid down CleanSpace. This vapor barrier seals under each post, along every wall, and is taped in place and together with our waterproof tape. While no water issues were present, we were happy that the homeowners were proactive to protect their new investment. 

This homes spacious crawlspace had regularly pooling water in the lower spots in their crawlspace. They were ready to take control of their crawlspace again, and wanted to fully encapsulate under their home so they wouldn't have to worry about water damage. 

To help them out, we removed the old debris from under their home, then we installed a SuperSump Pump in the lowest portion of their crawlspace. This would allow water to drain down to the pump which would divert all water out and away from the homes foundation. We then isolated each pier with Cleanspace so that the wood would be safe from water damage. After that we laid down dimpled drainage matting throughout the space and covered that with our TerraBlock crawlspace insolation and topped it all with Cleanspace. This is all taped in place with waterproof tape, and sealed along each wall. This home will be ready for the weather and our team will follow up with annual maintenance so the homeowners won't need to worry about a thing. 

When getting ready to sell, you can get more when your home is in good order, and that also means taking good care of your basement or crawlspace. This home was getting ready to go on the market and the crawlspace was looking a bit damp. Knowing any unaddressed items would lower their asking price, they wanted to tackle the crawlspace, and they called John's Waterproofing. 

To set this home up for the next homeowner, we installed a three-inch perforated pipe discharge line that ran along the interior perimeter of the space. This would divert groundwater to a newly installed SmartSump to take all of this water a safe distance away from the foundation of the home. A 6 Mil vapor barrier was then installed. The home was ready for market, and has a clean bill of health from the ground up!

It is common to find an exterior basement entrance having water issues. If these stairways are exposed to rain and water runoff without a drainage system in place, they become an easy way for water to gain access to the basement. This home had that issue, water was running down the stairs and pooling around the basement doorway on the outside and inside. To clear out the water and find a solution, the homeowners called in John's Waterproofing. 

Our crews began by creating a trench along the interior perimeter of the basement. For the doorway we installed a TrenchDrain that has an exposed grate to collect any water that goes over it, for the rest of the space we installed a WaterGaurd drainage system which is cemented over for a clean and dry look. These work together to collect groundwater as well as any water that comes down the stairway and diverts it to the newly installed SuperSump that then pushes all water a safe distance away from the home to a LawnScape outlet. This keeps water away from the basement, and from the foundation of the home, letting it stay dry and healthy. 

This home had an old vapor barrier in their crawlspace that had collected mud on top of it. The homeowners needed this to be cleaned out and replaced. 

Our install crew came out and pulled out the old mud-encrusted barrier and laid out a new 6 mil vapor barrier. This thinner barrier will help control water issues but should be monitored closely to check for rips, tears, and for places where water collects on top of it. Since it isn't encapsulating the crawlspace, it has more opportunities for water to get through and will need to be replaced every few years. 

This basement had water coming through the foundation flooring and the exterior doorway. It was common for the homeowners to need to squeegee the basement floor after heavy rains to direct the water to the one drain present, but was placed higher than most of the floor, making it ineffective. Looking for a long-term solution that would be easier, the homeowners turned to John's Waterproofing. 

Our crew came out and began by digging a trench along with the interior parameter of the basement, where we then installed our WaterGaurd drainage system. To accommodate more water by the exterior doorway, we installed a TrenchDrain by the doorway. This drainage system is finished to be flush to the flooring and directs all water to a newly installed TripleSafe sump pump which then takes all of the water and pumps it a safe distance away from the home to a LawnScape outlet.  No more squeegee is needed, this home is dry and healthy. 

As this home was getting ready to sell, it needed some work. The one thing that needed attention was the crawlspace. It's old vapor barrier was torn and caked in mud. They needed help, so they called John's Waterproofing. 

Our crew began by clearing out the old vapor barrier, since mud was caked on top, it was evident that water was pooling thru the barrier. To ensure that a new barrier would be able to last longer, we installed a drainage system. This consisted of a three-inch perforated pipe system that was buried into the dirt. This diverted groundwater to a newly installed SuperSump pump which was than pushed out and away from the foundation of the home to a LawnScape outlet. Once this was fully installed, we laid out a new 6 Mil vapor barrier. This home was now dry and healthy. 

This home had its basement finished by a general contractor so it could be rented out, it had been converted to a studio, with an outside accessway. However, it had not been waterproofed before it was finished. A few years after it had been completed, water spots began to poke up on the floor, and some musty smells were evident along with the drywall. With worry about rot and mold, the homeowners called in John's Waterproofing for full waterproofing and finishing. 

Our crew began by removing the damaged materials; carpeting, trim, and drywall. Once it was cleared out we dug a trench along with the interior of the parameter, by the entryway we installed our TrenchDrain and our WaterGuard drainage system was installed around the rest of the space. This system took groundwater and directed it to a newly installed SuperSump Plus. From here water is pushed out and away from the foundation of the home. We then installed our ThermalDry wall foil, which insulates and provides a vapor barrier so water is directed down the walls to the drainage system. We then installed our EverLast Wall system and our elite grey floor planking with newly installed trim. The final piece for this job was a SaniDry dehumidifier. This space will now be dry and healthy. 

These homeowners had their basement finished and were dismayed when, after a few years, they found water coming in through several areas. A System Designer explained to the homeowner that it was not uncommon for a basement to be dry for years and suddenly flood due to torrential rain or new construction in the area or any other reason that water can change its underground path or saturate the ground. He also noted that there were yard drainage issues that needed addressing.

Our installation crew was sent out and got to work addressing each issue.  First, the wet carpeting and pad had to be removed as well as the bottom 3' of the drywall and framing. WaterGuard was installed around the perimeter to gather the incoming water and lead it to a TripleSafe Sump System. From here the water was sent out and connected to a newly extended downspout drainage system to keep the water away from the home. Because 50% of the air from a basement flows up into the main home, the homeowner opted for a SaniDry dehumidifier to make sure the air in the basement and home stayed dry and clean. The homeowners then opted to refinish the space but were so happy that we could set them up properly so their basement could stay dry and healthy.

In spite of an old sump pump, this homeowner was still battling flooding in his basement and didn't understand why. He had learned of our company from a neighbor that was very pleased with the work John's Waterproofing had done for him so he called us out for a free inspection. Our Design Specialist arrived and after a thorough inspection, the Design Specialist explained a solution built to suit this home's needs and fully addressed the amount of water that this home saw. 

Our Installation Crew arrived a few weeks later to do the work. They started by jackhammering a 6" trench around the perimeter of the basement on top of the footing. A bed of gravel was laid in the trench where our award-winning WaterGuard was installed. A layer of concrete was troweled in over the WaterGuard to make it level with the rest of the basement floor. Only a 1/2" of the flange at the back of the WaterGuard was left exposed to accommodate a wall covering to be installed in such a way that the wall covering would direct any water/moisture into the WaterGuard system. The WaterGuard terminated at a newly installed SuperSump and an UltraSump battery backup. Lastly, BriteWall PVC textured wall covering was installed to lighten and brighten the basement. The new drainage system will be able to keep up with the heavy water that this foundation sees, ensuring this basement stays dry and healthy. 

This home's barn was down a hillside from the home. It had a dirt floor and it became a muddy mess when heavy rains hit. The homeowners had used John's Waterproofing for the crawlspace of their home, and now wanted to have us help with their barns waterproofing. 

Our crew dug a trench along the exterior of the barns parameter and we installed a drainage system. This would collect the groundwater and divert it around the barn, keeping the space from becoming a muddy mess. With the water going out and around the barn, the homeowners can now use this space without having to worry about slipping and sinking no matter how the weather is.  

We often get calls from homeowners that are looking to sell their home and need their crawlspace or basement waterproofed quickly. To address this important need we have a realty program. We can get approximate numbers to a broker in 1-2 days with the help of their inspection reports and, if they should decide to move forward, an inspection is performed by a System Designer to give the broker/homeowner a hard number to work with. This particular home had water intruding up to a few inches on top of the barrier and posts that were rotted and no longer touching the piers. This typically means that a PPP or Pipe/Pump/Plastic is in order and post replacements so the home can pass inspection and the new owners are happy.

Our System Installers were dispersed to do the work. The old vapor barrier, hanging insulation and all other debris was removed from the crawlspace. A 3" perforated pipe drainage system was installed around the perimeter and graded to the lowest point of the crawlspace where a SuperSump was installed to gather the water and discharge it out and away from the home. The bad posts were replaced with galvanized metal SmartJacks. Then a new 6mil plastic barrier was installed on the floor of the crawlspace and attached to the foundation walls to ensure that any water seeping in via the footing or wall was captured and removed by the new drainage system. The new owners were happy and thrilled with the warranty we provide!

This homeowner called because they had nearly completed a basement remodel and they noted that there was water intruding into their bathroom before it was fully completed. They called on John's Waterproofing to help them protect their investment. A System Designer was sent out and she walked the homeowner through the basement and explained how the hydrostatic pressure was pushing the water in at the footing all the while letting the homeowner know that John's Waterproofing could not only fix the problem but give him a lifetime warranty that we would collect the water and, provided the pump was operating, the system would collect the water and remove it from the basement. Measurements and photos were taken and a plan was designed to solve this home's water problem.

A few weeks later a crew was sent out and began, the first task was to cut the existing walls and framing 36" up from the floor to make room for installing the WaterGuard.  WaterGuard is an effective and reliable interior gutter system that will solve wet basement problems permanently! The system was installed to lead the water to a TripleSafe sump pump system and discharged to the rain drain system.  To repair the cut walls quickly and with a great look, EverLast basement wall system was installed to cover the missing wall area, and then John's came back and installed ThermalDry Elite plank flooring for a natural wood look that will stand up to moisture and is durable. The homeowners are thrilled to know their finished basement will be safe from water issues. 

In this instance, a contractor contacted John's Waterproofing for an inspection. He was remodeling a basement for a customer and was concerned about the water that came in during a rainstorm just prior to him starting the work. It was clear that this had to be addressed first. A System Designer met with the contractor and the owner. Together they inspected the basement from both the interior and exterior. The System Designer got out his computer and explained to them how hydrostatic pressure was pushing the water in at the footing and how John's Waterproofing could give them a lifetime warranty on the patented WaterGuard System. 

Some weeks later, an Installation Crew arrived to do the work. They began by breaking out 6" of concrete around the perimeter to install the WaterGuard. It was placed on top of the footing in a bed of gravel and inspection ports were strategically placed, terminating at the SuperSump location. Well Ducts were installed at the below-grade windows and ThermalDry wall system was fastened to walls and both were inserted into the flange at the back of the WaterGuard to insure any wall seepage or window well overflow was directed into the system. ThermalDry also aids in the insulation of the basement. Next, ThermalDry Flooring was laid down so the moisture that is always present in basement floors would keep away from the carpet being laid in the remodel. Homeowners also invested in a SaniDry XP to keep the air clean and dry.

Now this homeowner could invest in his basement remodel with confidence that it will stay dry and healthy.

This customer called John's Waterproofing because, despite having a sump pump, her basement was flooding every winter during the heavy rains. A System Designer was sent out to help her with a solid solution. He did a thorough examination of the basement and the exterior with the homeowner, explaining to her all the while why her basement was flooding and what could be done about it. He took lots of photos and took concise measurements and then they sat at the kitchen table to put together a proposal. She said she had to go over it with her partner and the System Designer understood. She called back the next day and with her partner in agreement, the proposal was signed and returned.

The crew arrived a few weeks later to do the work. WaterGuard is an award-winning piping system engineered specifically to solve basement water problems effectively and without the worry of clogging pipes from soil under the floor. Our crew installed it around the perimeter terminating it at a newly installed SuperSump Plus. It has a primary pump with a battery backup to assure continued pumping in the event of a power outage. The discharge line was taken 50' away from the home to ensure that none of the discharged water from the basement would return and the downspouts were extended as well. WaterGuard comes with a lifetime warranty that, so long as the pumps are operating, there will be no leaks. 

A customer discovered that there was water in the crawlspace and was anxious to get a free inspection to find out what needed to be done to fix the situation. A System Designer was scheduled and after a brief introduction, he examined the interior of the crawlspace. He also went around the exterior checking the foundation, the downspouts and looking for any problems that needed attention. He shared his findings and educated the customer on what John's Waterproofing could do to remedy the situation. 

One of our highly trained installation crews was dispatched to the home. To begin, our crew removed the 6 mil vapor barrier and fiberglass insulation. The space was to wet to work in, so we placed a sump pump and fans in the crawlspace to dry it sufficiently to do the work. Once it was dry, we sent out the crew and firstly removed the old access well and deteriorating wooden door with an Everlast Well and door. This is made from heavy-duty plastic and made to last for the life of the home. They installed a 3" perforated pipe drainage system around the perimeter to collect the water and direct it to a newly installed TripleSafe sump pump, along with proper discharge. TerraBlock, a high-density foam product was laid over the dirt floor. This aids in insulating the crawlspace and protects the new CleanSpace, 20mil, nylon-reinforced vapor barrier. This is used to isolate each wooden post and anchored to the foundation walls. Lastly, a SaniDry dehumidifier was installed to ensure this home stays dry and healthy. With all the vents sealed, we had our spray foam specialist come by to install single-cell Spray Foam insulation to the full wall of the foundation and the rim joist to keep the home insulated. 

After seeing a John's Waterproofing's booth at a Home Show, this homeowner called to have her crawlspace inspected. She had been experiencing breathing problems for some time and learned about mold in crawlspaces and how that just might be her problem. A system designer went to her home to perform an inspection. Afterwards he discussed the home's water issues and educated her on the value of our encapsulation system and how it can create a healthy environment in her home. She decided it was the right thing today and would be an investment in her home and her health.

To begin the work, our highly trained installation crew removed the old 6mil vapor barrier as well as the old fiberglass insulation and debris. They installed a 3" perforated pipe drainage system around the perimeter to collect the water and direct it to a newly installed TripleSafe sump pump, along with proper discharge away from the foundation. TerraBlock, a high-density foam product was laid over the dirt floor. This aids in insulating the crawlspace, protecting the new CleanSpace, 20mil, nylon-reinforced barrier and adds padding for when someone needs to be under the home. CleanSpace is used to isolate each wooden post and is anchored to the foundation walls. Most importantly, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was installed to ensure this home stayed dry and healthy, killing the mold and preventing regrowth. With all the vents sealed, Spray Foam insulation was applied to the full wall of the foundation to keep the home properly insulated. Healthy, dry, filtered air helps the homeowners stay healthy, comfortable, and save on utility expenses.

This homeowner called us after finding their finished basement carpeting wet in multiple places. They had removed the items from their basement, and pulled up the carpeting to try to allow the space to dry. They had fans going and had to use a shop-vac to pull up water in one of the rooms. The homeowners knew they had a real water issue, and reached out to John's Waterproofing for a solution crafted to help protect this living space. 

To begin our crew removed the damaged walls and dug a trench along the interior parameter. Here we installed a WaterGaurd drainage system in a gravel bed. This will naturally grade to a SuperSump Plus which directs the water safely out and away from he homes foundation. We then installed a ThermalDry radiant barrier along the foundation walls to direct water to the drain system to protect the home. We then installed our Total Basement Finishing matting which can have the carpeting installed over it, creating a safe space between the concrete flooring and the carpet. So if any water issues arise again, the home will be protected. Our finishing crew came out a few days later and re-finished the space so that the homeowners could fully enjoy this space without stressing over water issues. 

A homeowner contacted us because his basement had a bad habit of flooding in the winter.  There was a sump pump in a hole but he felt he needed something more comprehensive. We were happy to help and a System Designer went to the home to do an inspection. He walked the basement with the homeowner and educated him on why the water was coming in and how John's Waterproofing had a great solution and it came with a fantastic warranty. They walked the exterior to make sure there weren't things like damaged downspouts or poor drainage that may be adding to the problem. Finding none, he sat down with the homeowner and they built a proposal together that would solve the problem and fit the homeowner's budget. 

An installation crew came out later and began by breaking out the concrete around the perimeter of the basement to ready it for installing WaterGuard, our award-winning drain system that comes with a lifetime warranty that it will gather and remove the water provided the sump pump is working. It sits in a bed of gravel to help keep dirt out and then it is concreted over leaving only a 1/2" flange next to the foundation wall to allow a wall system to be tucked it and drive water/moisture down into the WaterGuard. The WaterGuard terminates at a TripleSafe sump system with its main pump, backup pump and battery backup to ensure the system continues to operate in the event of a power outage. The pump is put in an airtight liner complete with an alarm and floor rain in case of a plumbing leak. A CleanSpace wall system was chosen to lighten up the basement until the homeowners are ready to build it out in the future. They also chose to include a SaniDry dehumidifier to keep the air dry and filtered. This also rotates the air through the home, keeping it healthy. 

Homeowners noted a damp feeling throughout their home. They had tried to find any incoming water in their home but couldn't find the source, until they looked in the crawlspace. Down here, they found at least four inches of standing water. They had a general 6 Mil vapor barrier installed years ago, but this obviously wasn't able to withstand the groundwater they were dealing with. Knowing that they needed help from a professional, they called up John's Waterproofing. One of our design specialists arrived and did a thorough inspection and crafted a few options for their home. To suit their budget, one of the mid options was chosen. 

To begin, our crew came out, installed a temporary sump pump, fans, and preliminary trenching. We needed the space dried out before we could fully install their system. Once they space was dry we came back out. We then dug the trenches and installed three inch perforated pipes. These naturally grade all groundwater to the newly installed UltraSump with a SuperSump Plus backup. From here water is sent out and away from the home. As a final step we installed a new 6 Mil vapor barrier, this will need to be changed out every few years, but there will be no more flooding issues. 

This homeowner's unfinished basement would commonly have puddles appear and the damp environment caused the fiberglass insulation along the foundation beams to fall in pieces. The homeowners were ready for a solution to keep the home dry and healthy. They called up John's Waterproofing for some help and scheduled a free inspection to receive an estimate. Afterwards, a solution was crafted and the installation crew was scheduled to perform the work. 

To begin our crew removed the old failing fiberglass. Once the space was clean we dug a trench along the basements interior perimeter. Here we installed our WaterGuard drain system. This will collect the groundwater and safely grade it to a newly installed TripleSafe sump pump to send the water well away from the home to a LawnScape outlet. We then installed ThermalDry radiant barrier along the walls. This will both insulate the space as well as provide a waterproof solution so any moisture is send down the the new drain system. As a final piece we installed a SaniDry dehumidifier to ensure the space will now stay dry and healthy. 

This homes sale was on hold, the crawlspace was damp and filled with general debris from previous work in this space. To have the sale proceed, they called up John's Waterproofing to benefit from our Fix it To List it Real Estate Program. This helps their waterproofing job move along quicker, since they work with our realty specialist, and can be paid through the homes escrow. To have this space taken are of we went with a PPP, or Pipe, Pump and Plastic. 

To begin, our crew pulled out the old vapor barrier and debris. We then dug a trench through the crawlspace and placed a three inch perforated pipe in a silt sock. This is laid out to naturally grade the ground water to the lowest spot in the crawlspace where we installed a SuperSump Plus. From here water is sent out and away from the homes foundation to a LawnScape outlet. We then laid down a new 6 Mil vapor barrier, overlapping the edges and running it up the wall. The sale was then able to proceed. 

The homeowner called, they had their basement finished and had it rented out as an apartment for local collage students. However, after a particularly heavy rain, there were damp spots found along the base of the walls, seeping into the carpeting. The homeowner wanted to protect the home against water damage and set up and appointment. We sent out a design specialist to do a full inspection and provide a crafted solution to meet the homes needs. 

To begin our work we addressed the three large windows, they had wooden wells around them, and water had been seeping into the basement around these windows. We installed new WellDucts to provide proper protection to these windows. In the home we then removed the damaged portions of walls and pulled up the damp carpeting. Around the interior perimeter we then dug a trench and laid down WaterGuard, this will collect groundwater and water from the walls to send it along to a newly installed TripleSafe sump pump. In the living spaces we installed ThermalDry radiant barriers over the foundation walls, and in the laundry space we installed BrightWall paneling. Our finished department then came out and installed our EverLast wall restoration system and ThermalDry flooring to give this space a waterproof and finished look. 

This finished basement had been finished years back. The homeowners had never thought much about waterproofing until they noticed their carpet was squishy and wet along the foundation walls. The homeowners were worried about prolong water damage and moved their items out of the basement, and pulled up the carpeting throughout the space. Next they set up fans to help address the dampness and called up John's Waterproofing for assistance. We sent out a design specialist who did a full inspection to see the extent of the water issues. They then sat down with the homeowners to discuss, answer questions, and find a solution. 

To begin working, we had to remove the drywall that had water damage. We then used a jackhammer to create a trench along the interior perimeter and installed WaterGuard. This will collect groundwater and grade it to a newly installed SuperSump pump which sends water well away from the foundation to a LawnScape outlet. We then installed ThermalDry radiant barrier along the foundation walls to both insulate and be a vapor barrier. We then had out finishing department refinish the walls and install ThermalDry Matting on the floor. This will not mold or rot and works as an underlayment tile for carpeting to go over. The homeowners are thrilled with how the finished space looks and relived to know it is properly waterproofed. 

This homeowner noted a peculiar smell coming up from the crawlspace. They went to check out the issues and discovered the old fiberglass insulation was falling in pieces and dripping water, the smell was way worse in this space. They searched online and called up John's Waterproofing for crawlspace repair. We sent out a design specialist who performed a full inspection and worked on a solution to suit the home's needs and budget. 

To begin our crew had to clear the space out. We pulled out the damaged fiberglass and 6 Mil vapor barrier. Due to the damp insulation being held against the wooden beams of the crawlspace we then applied Mold X2 as needed. We then laid down a new 6-mil vapor barrier, overlapping the edges to extend the barrier's efficiency. This is not a solution to water issues, but gets rid of the mold smell that was growing in the insulation and creates a clean start for when the homeowner wishes to solve their water issues down the road. 

Mineral deposits from the soil can lead to nasty colored water stains on basement walls. This home suffered from a brown/red stain that was throughout the basement. The homeowners had tried to scrub the walls, but in vain. Eager to keep their basement looking nice, and stop more discoloration from occurring, they called up John's Waterproofing to schedule their inspection. After confirming that the issue was water coming through the poured foundation walls, the representative spoke to the homeowner about their wall options and what they would need to keep their home dry and healthy. 

To begin this home project, our installation crew dug a trench along the interior perimeter, here we installed a bed of gravel with a WaterGuard drainage system. The system is fed the wall water by the newly installed BrightWall paneling. These provide a semi-finished look and will not mold or rot, and are easy to clean. This will allow any moisture that is seeping in to be diverted down into the drain system and then graded along to a newly installed TripleSafe sump pump which sends the water well away from the home to a LawnScape outlet. The homeowners were amazed by how fresh and clean their basement now looks. 

When water gets into a finished basement, a plethora of issues can occur. When their basement carpeting was damp, this homeowner knew they needed to act fast. They pulled the furnishings away from the walls and began pulling back the carpet, exposing standing water. They began to touch the lower potions of their drywall, to find it was squishy and the baseboards were pulling away from the walls. Knowing that this problem was to big to do on their own, they called up John's Waterproofing. A system designer than sat with the homeowner and discussed the options for moving forward. The homeowner was thrilled to hear we could demo the damaged work, waterproof the space, and refinish it. Being their one stop basement solution. 

To begin we removed the damaged items from the basement. We then dug a trench along the interior perimeter and we installed a WaterGuard drain system which we graded to a low spot where we installed a SuperSump Plus to then dispel the water well away from the homes foundation to a LawnScape outlet. For the walls we then installed WellDucts, ensuring any moisture from around the windows is guided down the walls to the drain system, then covering the walls with ThermalDry radiant wall barriers to provide a vapor barrier and insulation. The homeowners still wanted to install carpeting, so we installed a ThermalDry tile system that carpeting can be attached to.  A SaniDry dehumidifier was brought in and installed to keep the humidity controlled. As a final step out finishing department came out and refinished the space. 

When the basement walls are damp to the touch, it is an easy sign to know that water has found its way in. This home had water coming through the foundation walls, and the basement smelled damped for the majority of the year. Knowing that moisture exposure could damage the wooden supports for the homes foundation, they took to the internet to search for solutions. They scheduled their free inspection with John's Waterproofing and were excited to see the solution we crafted to address their homes needs. 

To begin we dug a trench along the interior perimeter of the basement. A bed of gravel was laid here with WaterGuard over it. This is carefully graded along to a low spot in the basement where a TripleSafe sump pump is installed. The discharge line then sends water safely away from the home. To ensure all of the moisture from the walls finds its way to this system, BrightWall paneling was installed. This will not rot or mold, and is easy to clean. The homeowners also enjoy that it brightens the space significantly! A SaniDry dehumidifier was brought in and the space is set to remain dry and healthy!

This homeowners basement had old fiberglass insulation hanging from the ceiling. The home suffered from cold floors in the Winter months and while the fiberglass had helped for a short while, it absorbed moisture from the basement and began to fall. This left pieces hanging down that people would run into, pieces along the floor, and the homes floors got very cold again. To solve the issue they would need a solution that was made to last. They called up John's Waterproofing to receive their free inspection. 
To address the homes problem we began by pulled down all of the nasty fiberglass. Some mold spores were starting to grow in the rafters and we treated these. We then installed a full interior perimeter drain system with our WaterGuard drains. The walls had a ThermalDry radiant vapor barrier installed to guide water moisture from the walls into the below drain system. This system also acts as a Thermal Break top help the space maintain a comfortable temperature. The drains lead all water to a new TripleSafe sump pump to be sent away from the home. We finished by installing a SaniDry dehumidifier and air sealing the basement to prevent drafty air from coming in. The homeowners like how clean the space looks, no more ugly fiberglass hanging down making a mess, and their floors are more comfortable! 

This basement was rented out as a an apartment, and within the last year it had flooded twice. They had a plumber out to examine the space, but no plumbing issues were found, so they called up John's Waterproofing to see where the issue was. During our inspection we found water was coming in through where the foundation wall meets to foundation floor. To stop water from coming in they would need a waterproofing system installed. 

To begin our work we removed the finished walls from the space. We then dug a trench around the interior perimeter of the space. We lain in a bed of gravel with our WaterGuard drainage system to collect and grade the water to a TripleSafe sump pump to be dispelled away from the home. To insulate and guide water from the walls into the drain system, we installed ThermalDry radiant vapor barrier along the foundation walls. The homeowners will have a local contractor come out to refinish the walls and finish the basement fully again. We finished by installed a SaniDry dehumidifier to keep the air healthy. 

After chatting with a neighbor, this homeowner realized they hadn't glanced into their crawlspace since they had purchased the home. They thought all would be well, but upon looking through the crawlspace entrance in their closet, they saw water. A small pool of water right under the entrance, and the fiberglass insulation was in stripes throughout the space. After seeing this they began to look up what could happen if these issues were left unchecked. Knowing they should address these issues now and not later, they ended up scheduling with John's Waterproofing. After their inspection, they ended up choosing to get a full encapsulation to set the crawlspace up with a real solution. 

To begin our work our crew removed the old insulation, vapor barrier, and debris. We then installed a drainage system to collect the groundwater and send it to a TripleSafe sump pump which pumps the water safely away from the home. To provide insulation, we then laid down TerraBlock over the dirt floor and closed off the crawlspace vents. CleanSpace was then installed, going under the wooden posts, attaching to the foundation walls and sealed up with a special four inch wide waterproof tape. To air seal and insulate the foundation walls we applied spray foam. To ensure the space remined healthy we then finished with a SaniDry dehumidifier. The space is now bright, dry, and healthy! 

This homes basement had water entering up through the poured floor. Minor cracks were appearing near the foundation walls and water was more evident along these cracks. The homeowners wanted to address this water issue before it worsened, so they called up John's Waterproofing to get hear about their options. 

To begin our work we dug a trench along the interior perimeter, where we installed a bed of gravel with our WaterGuard drainage system. The walls then had our BrightWall paneling installed over it. Water will be guided from the walls down to the drain system and groundwater will collect in the drain system. All water is then graded to a TripleSafe sump pump to be pumped out and away from the homes foundation. A SaniDry dehumidifier was then installed to keep the air dry and healthy, ensuring this space won't have to worry about mold or mildew growth. 

This home had water found in the basement. It began getting worse over the years, so the homeowner was ready to solve the problem. They called up John's Waterproofing after seeing our commercials, and scheduled their inspection. To keep the home dry, we began with a drainage system. This involved digging an interior perimeter trench where we laid in a bed of gravel and our WaterGuard drainage system. This collects water and grades it to a low point where a TripleSafe sump pump is installed and sends the water safely away from the home to a LawnScape outlet. The walls were waterproofed with our CleanSpace wall system, this will guide moisture down the walls safely to the WaterGuard drainage system. A SaniDry dehumidifier was installed and our electrical crew installed a dedicated outlet for both the sump pump and dehumidifier. This system will now keep the home dry and healthy. 

Water trickling down the walls of the basement. This was what the homeowner faced. With the idea of their stuff in the basement facing water damage, the homeowners were ready to get the space waterproofed. They called up John's Waterproofing and were ready to find the solution that fit their homes needs. 

Our crew began by digging a trench along the interior perimeter. Here we put in a bed of gravel with our WaterGuard drainage system. This is fed water from the walls and collects groundwater. The walls were covered with our BrightWall panel system, providing a semi-finished look. it is easy to clean, and will not mold or mildew. The water then travels through the WaterGuard to the lowest point where a TripleSafe sump pump sends the water safely out and away from the homes foundation to a LawnScape outlet. A SaniDry dehumidifier is installed to keep the air dry and healthy. Now the homeowner will not need to stress about the leaks, as the water will be properly cared for. 

This homes finished basement consisted of four rooms. And as the years progressed, the homeowners began to find the carpeting damp in multiple places. They began by pulling up a corner of the carpeting and they discovered water mold was growing on the underside of the carpet. Needing to get to the root of the issue they scheduled an appointment with John's Waterproofing. To get a full scope of the issue and protect the items in the basement they rented a storage unit, moved items into the unit and pulled up the rest of the carpet. During the inspection we found the majority of the issues to be surrounding the window wells of the home. 

To begin waterproofing we removed the drywall along the interior perimeter of the home, finding water mold in the fiberglass insulation. We then installed drain systems for the below-grade windows and installed a full perimeter WaterGuard drainage system. This consists of a trench with a bed of gravel and the WaterGuard drain system and was covered again. We then installed a ThermalDry radiant vapor barrier along the foundation walls. This acts as a thermal break and vapor barrier. This guides water into the new drain system, where water then grades to the lowest point to a TripleSafe sump pump to be pumped away from the home. A SaniDry dehumidifier was installed to keep the moisture to air content to be healthy. Our finishing crew then insulated with SilverGlo insulation and re-drywall the space. The space was fully set to be refinished by the homeowners contractor of choice. 

This home had water in the crawl space. Since the water was on top of the vapor barrier, the homeowners wanted to have a professional inspect the space, see if the water levels were bringing ground water up, or if it was a plumbing based issue. Upon inspection we were able to take photos of water stains up to two inches along the foundation walls, and detected no plumbing leaks, this was ground water. To keep this space dry, stable, and healthy we suggested a full encapsulation, which the homeowners agreed to. 

To begin our work, the crew removed the old vapor barrier that was caked in mud. We also removed old fiberglass that was in some of the crawl space, and the general debris that was present. We then installed a TripleSafe sump pump in the lowest place of the crawl space, and installed a full interior perimeter drainage system to guide groundwater to this designated place. Next a layer of TerraBlock insulation was installed over the dirt floor and the vents were all sealed shut. Next came a layer of CleanSpace, going under each wooden post, anchored and sealed along the rim joist, and sealed into place using a special four inch wide waterproof tape. We installed a SaniDry dehumidifier and spray foam along the foundation walls to insulate and air seal. This space is now protected against groundwater issues and the homeowners can rest assured their crawl space is dealt with properly. 

This homes crawl space had some issues. It had old fiberglass insulation that was drooping and had absorbed water, causing some mold spores to take hold. The below vapor barrier was caked with mud and had shifted out of place, leaving patches of earth exposed. The smell under here was musty and wafting up into the living spaces. To address the issue, the homeowners called up John's Waterproofing to get a free inspection and learn about how an encapsulation would benefit them. 

To begin encapsulation we cleared out the crawl space, pulling the old fiberglass and vapor barrier out. We then installed a full drainage system with a TripleSafe sump pump to dispel the water away from the home. The vents were then sealed shut and we laid out TerraBlock insulation along the dirt floor. CleanSpace was then wrapped in, going under each wooden post, attached and sealed along the rim joists, and sealed the CleanSpace seams. A SaniDry dehumidifier was installed to keep the moisture levels under control, ensuring mold couldn't grow here. Spray Foam was then applied along the foundation walls. The space is now insulated properly, air sealed, and healthy. 

This homeowner had done a store-bought charcoal radon test kit. When the result came back at 17.6 pCi/L, they were concerned. Since mitigation is recommended at anything above 2.0 pCi/L, this result was concerning. They purchased another charcoal test kit to check, and the result was 8.1 pCi/L. So they called John's Waterproofing to schedule an appointment with our certified radon experts. We went out, walked them through how the system works and settled on a location. The installer came out a week later and installed the radon system. This involves a pipe that dives under the homes foundation to pull radon gas out of the soil as it breaks down. This pipe wraps to the exterior of the home where the fan sits and pushes the gases above the homes roofline. Once completed we left a charcoal test kit for them to recheck their home with. This was then sent to a third party company, showing that their homes radon level was now at 0.9 pCi/L. 

This homes basement walls were damp to the touch. While the homeowners had thought this was normal in the beginning, those damp spots began to grow water mold. And they began to worry, mold could cause health issues and it was beginning to smell in their living spaces as well. They searched online to find the best solution. While they could see that they could treat and clean this up, it would come back if nothing changed. So they searched for a real solution and stumbled upon John's Waterproofing. We scheduled their free inspection and went out, crafting a solution to suit their home and their needs. 

To begin we would need to create a channel for water. This involves digging a trench along the interior perimeter. Here we laid in gravel and our WaterGuard drainage system. The walls then had our CleanSpace wall system installed. This barrier will guide water from the walls safely to the new drain system to meet up with any other groundwater. All of this is graded to the lowest point where a TripleSafe sump pump is installed. From here water is pumped away from the home to a LawnScape outlet. To keep the air to moisture content healthy a SaniDry dehumidifier is installed, ensuring this space can remain dry and healthy all year round. 

Fiberglass insulation is not made to last in the crawl space. This home had been replacing it, reattaching it, and struggling with mold growth in it and was just done. So they called up John's Waterproofing to learn about an encapsulation. They wanted to know how we insulated, the products used, and how it helped lower a homes heating and cooling costs in comparison to fiberglass. After a long discussion with a design specialist they moved forward with an encapsulation. 

To begin we removed the old fiberglass insulation and spot treating the mold that had returned. We pulled out the old vapor barrier and debris. Following this we installed a full interior drainage system with a TripleSafe sump pump to address groundwater. TerraBlock is then used to insulate along the dirt floor and we sealed the vents shut. CleanSpace is then layered in, going over each wooden post, anchored along the walls, and sealed into place. A SaniDry dehumidifier is installed and we used Spray Foam on the foundation walls to insulate and air seal. This space is now properly insulated and ready to protect the home from water damage and high energy bills!
