Before & After Photos

In the process of waterproofing this basement in Ravenna, MI, we installed Brightwall panels to cover the severe water damage on the lower third of the block walls. In addition to covering up the horror movie look of the walls, the Brightwall panels are tied right into the WaterGuard system to help direct water to the WaterGuard and the sump pump.

Even after a basement is dried, the signs of wear and tear from water damage serves as evidence of what had once been; something no homeowner wants to remember. Water can leave stains and damage walls by mold growth or rot and decay. BrightWall panels solve these problems. The panels are quick to install as they are placed overtop of the current walls. They are waterproof, stop any water vapor from passing through, and are made from inorganic materials banishing any potential mold growth or mildew. These panels don't warp, are energy efficicent, and give your basement a more clean and bright look. A great final touch to any waterproofing job! 

The crack in this was a likely point of entry for water in the basement. It would be easy to go to the hardware store and fix the crack yourself, with mortar or adhesive, but it’s very likely this solution wouldn’t last long, especially if the crack were ever to expand. FlexiSpan crack repair is a warranted repair system that seals the crack in three steps. First, a flexible sealant is applied along the crack, and then porous foam is applied over it. Lastly, an impermeable membrane is applied over the foam, allowing any water that may come through the crack to be caught by the drainage system along the floor. The flexible material of FlexiSpan means the repair covering won’t crack if the walls move in the future. This specially designed system puts a stop to wall leaks, preventing a basement full of water.

A customer had water leaking into her basement which was causing her carpets to get wet and mold to grow in her basement. She called our team and so we installed the SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System. This system can handle high pumping demands better than normal sump pumps. In addition, it will alert you when water levels are too high and has an airtight lid to prevent any unwanted moisture or pests from entering.

Our customer called with water issues in their basement, but also wanted an egress window installed so once the waterproofing was done they could use the basement as proper living space. We installed a new egress window in place of the old window, bringing the basement up to code for use as a bedroom.
