Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

We installed a full interior perimeter waterproofing system for this foundation in Cincinnati, OH, to keep water away from the basement. We wrapped the entire perimeter of the basement with our WaterGuard subfloor drains, and we installed our most secure sump pump system - the TripleSafe (not pictured). The product that really transformed the look and feel of this basement though, was our CleanSpace vapor barrier wall system. This product immediately changed the look and smell in the basement, and it serves a functional purpose as well. The vapor barrier was tucked into our subfloor drainage system so that the vapor barrier can channel wall seepage moisture down into the drainage system beneath the floor. The homeowner was very happy with the outcome of the entire project, especially the new walls.  

This basement in West Chester, OH, was struggling to keep moisture out of the space. The existing sump pump was very inconsistent, and when it wasn't working, the basement would leak when it was raining outside. On top of the inconsistent sump pump, there were clogged spots in the exterior drainage system that left parts of the basement wet year round. We replaced their exterior system with our interior drainage system. Our WaterGuard drains were wrapped around the perimeter of the basement, right underneath the floor. We then installed our SuperSump sump pump with a battery backup system in the lowest graded part of the basement floor slab. Lastly, we wrapped the walls with our BrightWall wall paneling system to help channel moisture from the leaky walls down into our subfloor drainage system. The BrightWall panels also transformed the look of the basement.

We don't just take before and after photos for marketing purposes. We also use project photos to document what our crews should expect when they arrive, the condition of the space before work begins, and any other little tidbit our service team needs to know for future service appointments. Here, you can see the moisture staining in the basement corner before work began and the finished waterproofing system with subfloor drainage, new BriteWall panels, and a new sump pump. This basement in Cincinnati, OH, is now set for the future against water damage.

This basement was falling apart before we stepped in. Persistent leaks left behind stains and rusted appliances, while hydrostatic pressure pushed against the foundation, causing the walls to bow and crack. Moisture crept into the wooden floor joists, leading to damage and musty odors. Now, this basement is dry, stable, and built to last thanks to:

• PowerBrace wall repair system
• TripleSafe sump pump
• BriteWall wall paneling system
• WaterGuard subfloor drains
• Our dedicated crew

A complete transformation from top to bottom.

This basement was in rough shape before we got to work. Constant leaks left stains and rusted appliances, while hydrostatic pressure caused the foundation walls to bow and crack. Moisture weakened the wooden floor joists and created musty odors throughout the space. We firsts waterproofed the foundation with our WaterGuard subfloor drains and our TripleSafe sump pump. We then contained moisture by installing our BriteWall panels, which will channel wall leaks down into the subfloor drainage system. We finished the job by installing our steel PowerBraces to keep the walls stabilized. Now, it's dry, secure, and built to last!
