This home's crawlspaces old vapor barrier was not installed properly and the water had been pooling under it, on it, and the moisture was being absorbed by the old fiberglass insulation. This passageway under the home had the old wooden frame rotting under the vapor barrier. To address this waterproofing issue we installed our dimpled drainage matting, insulated it with TerraBlock, and then sealed it all in with Cleanspace. The after photo here is from the work-in-progress stage, showing the layers that go into this encapsulation.

Job Stories From Corbett, OR
Wet Basement During Heavy Rains - Corbett, OR

These homeowners called because they were tired of their basement getting wet during heavy rains. The home was from the 1940's and the homeowners had just figured this was an issue with old homes, but after seeing our ad in a magazine they wondered if there was hope to stop the water intrusion issues. We had a design specialist come out to perform a thorough inspection and craft a solution to address the issues. The homeowners were thrilled that the problem could be handled!

Our installers arrived a few weeks later and began by digging a trench around the interior parameter. Here we laid down gravel with our WaterGuard drainage system. The walls were then covered with our BrightWall panels, these waterproof panels are easy to clean and brighten the space to create a semi-finished look. This directs all moisture from the walls down to the new drain system which then grades all water to a new TripleSafe sump pump. The water is then safely sent out and away from the home. The home is now dry and healthy, the homeowners are so happy to no longer have to stress over a wet basement. 

Digging out a Crawlspace - Corbett, OR

Legal clearance for a crawlspace is 18" so there are times that call for a "dig out" of a crawlspace to bring it up to code and, quite frankly, make it possible to inspect, perform plumbing repairs and more. Such was the case with this home. We had to excavate approximately 6" of dirt out of the crawlspace before doing the necessary work to mitigate the water problems and put down a proper barrier.  Excavation is priced by the cubic yard so our System Designer took concise measurements of the crawlspace's footprint to come up with an accurate proposal.

The crew arrived a few weeks later to begin the arduous work of excavating the dirt out of the crawlspace. It had to be dug out by hand and hauled out a bucket at a time. A tough job, but after it was all done and a new vapor barrier was laid throughout, this homeowner was happy to have a crawlspace that was navigable and up to code. 

Bringing A Crawlspace up to Code in Corbett, OR

As a homeowner gets ready to sell their home, they need to ensure that the home is up to code, and over the years a home can begin to settle. This home settled over the years, leaving their crawlspace with an inadequate amount of room for someone. To bring it back up to code before going on the market, the homeowners called in Johns Waterproofing. 

Our crew did a dig out, removing in total, twenty cubic yards of dirt to have this crawlspace compliant with its local codes. We then installed a 6 Mil vapor barrier to protect against water issues. This home will now be ready to go onto the market. 

Waterguard Perimeter Drain in Corbett, OR Basement

Three homeowners had water migrating through the walls in their basement and called John's Waterproofing out of concern of the negative effects. Our inspector, Travis came up with the perfect solution to help them solve their water issues. He suggested installing Thermal Dry Walls, Bright Wall panels and our patented Waterguard system.

 

The homeowners quickly agreed to Travis' suggestions and Delfino and his team started waterproofing the basement. They began by installing Thermal Dry walls which improve comfort and energy efficiency by reflecting heat back into the basement space. They then installed Bright Wall panels that turn bare basement walls into bright, beautiful finished walls. Bright Wall panels never need paint or any other maintenance and are designed to work with the Waterguard Perimeter Drain system by directing wall seepage into the drain. The drain then channels the water to the sump pump.

 

Now that our systems are in place, Ben no longer has water entering into his basement and can enjoy his new, dry and usable space.
