Sump Pumps Before & After Photos

This homeowner bought their home with a sump pump system already installed. After years of not worrying about their crawl space, they began noticing a strange smell and decided to inspect it. Unfortunately, they found that their original sump pump wasn't working properly and was overfilling with water into the crawl space. Needing the issue fixed, the homeowner reached out to John's Waterproofing about their options. We informed them that upgrading to the TripleSafe sump pump would be the best long-term solution to keeping their home dry and healthy. The TripleSafe is a three-pump system that is capable of controlling hundreds of gallons of water at a time. It collects any water that tries to seep through and safely pushes it out and away from the homes foundation. This sump pump even has a backup battery-operated pump that will keep the crawl space dry even in the case of a power outage. Overall, making the upgrade to the TripleSafe sump pump was the best solution so now the homeowner can rest knowing their crawl space will stay dry.

The customer lives along the coastline, so being in a moist climate did their crawlspace more harm than good. Along with no one being down there for quite some time, it ended up being in shambles. So Pedro and his crew cleaned it out and installed a 6 mil Vapor Barrier to help protect the home from water intrusion. 

A natural spring was causing water problems in this basement. So our crews installed our patented WaterGuard system that will drain the water unseen to the Ultra Sump pump that will pump the water out away from the house. 

This small crawlspace is the side of this home that is built into a hillside. It had a lot of drainage issues and the homeowners had tried to do a DIY Sump Pump to waterproof, however, this ended up clogged with mud and the plastic sheets they had put over the dirt floor were cased with mud. To take control over the water, they called Johns for a full encapsulation; perforated pipes along the interior perimeter, Dimpled Drainage matting, TerraBlock insulation, SuperSump, UltraSump back up, SmartJacks for stability, CleanSpace, a SaniDry Sedona, Spray Foam, new vent covers, and an EverLast Doorway.
