Sump Pumps Before & After Photos

With all the rain this basement had been leaking water and damaging the homeowners belongings. He gave us a call and was interested in waterproofing his basement and what options there were. Our inspector recommended our WaterGuard system that goes along the interior wall and drains into a sump pump. We installed our Super Sump that has high-volume pumping and sits flush with the ground. we also did a CleanSpace wall in the basement which is where we installed our CleanSpace 20 mil thick vapor barrier of the basement walls. Leaving it looking clean and sealed so that the homeowner can use their basement again. 

This crawlspace had a sump pump that was not working and had standingwater and debris. Our crew came out and removed the old pump and all of the debris. Installed a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier which can remove up to 95 pints of water per day and installed a SuperSump Plus and an Ultra Sump sump pump. This customer no longer hs to worry about moisture or mold.

This house had two separate crawlspaces and on one of the crawlspaces water had been leaking and had standing water. The homeowner attempted to install their own sump pump to try and drain the standing water out and fix the problem. Much to their efforts they still had standing water and the pump wouldn't drain properly. The homeowner gave us a call to come out and see what we could do to fix the sump pump and get their crawlspace dry and healthy. We replaced their sump pump install and installed our Smart sump pump. The SmartSump is designed for crawlspaces and allows easy access, it is an airtight fitted pump that doesn't cause bunching in the vapor barrier. These homeowners were relieved to finally have a properly installed sump pump that took care of the standing water and drained it out away from the house. 

The low point was in their driveway, and they wanted something to help prevent it from going into their home. The previous owner had a trench drain installed, but it wasn't deep enough, so the water was flooding out of the drain. So we pulled out the old one and dug it out so it would be 12in x 12in. Giving the water enough space to drain without causing any damage to the garage or home. 

No homeowner wants to experience water intrusion. It can cause all kinds of issues to the home like mold growth, wood rot, and even impact the structural integrity of the home. At John's Waterproofing, we take pride in ensuring water can't get into basements by installing a proper drainage system that keeps water out. This involves installing a SuperSump Plus sump pump and WaterGuard drainage pipe. The WaterGuard system gets installed first by jackhammering a trench along the interior perimeter of the basement. It is lined with gravel so that water can easily filter through and help to prevent clogging. The purpose of this system is so it can collect water that tries to enter and act as a safe passageway to the SuperSump Plus sump pump. This sump pump is what takes all that collected water and can securely push it out and away from the homes foundation. It is designed with a heavy duty Zoeller pump so that it is capable of controlling mass amounts of water at a time. With these two systems installed, we can ensure that the basement will stay dry and healthy all year round.
