Before & After Photos

A Russellville, Ohio homeowner was having problems with water seeping into the basement. We recommended a WaterGuard basement waterproofing system and a SuperSump sump pump to be installed. WaterGuard is an interior under the floor drainage system, which is installed around the perimeter of the foundation walls to intercept water that seeps into the basement. The water will then be drained into the SuperSump sump pump System. The SuperSump has a 1/3HP cast iron pump that can pump 2,650 gallons of water an hour at an eight foot head. The WaterWatch alarm sounds if the water reaches too high and the pump hasn't yet turned on. This will alert the homeowner that there is a problem with the system. The SuperLiner sump liner is a rugged, heavy-duty liner that will not crack or cave in, and has 96 holes to allow water to flow in from below the floor. It also features a "pump ring" that centers the pump in the liner to prevent the switch from hanging up on the sidewalls. It also has an airtight lid that will keep water moisture from seeping back into the basement. The lid is also so strong you can stand on it. With the WaterGuard intercepting the water and the sump pumping it out of the basement, this homeowner will be able to use the basement without worrying about water intrusion. 

This crawl space was in need of a vapor barrier, combined with a new waterproofing system. We installed CleanSpace matting and drainage, as well as a Ultra Sump 4. SilverGlo insulation was installed as well, which well help this customer save money on energy bills. 

This poured foundation wall in the basement was leaking water due to built up hydrostatic pressure from the outside. We Begun to fix this problem by applying a flexible sealant along the leaking crack. Then, we placed a strip of flexible, porous foam over the sealant. Finally, we attached an impermeable membrane to the wall. This setup ensures that any future water seepage through the crack is directed discreetly into the drainage system below. The result was a happy customer who could finally finish their basement wall once again. 

This homeowner called us because the last contractor they hired did not do a good enough job to properly protect their basement from water. They claimed, "There is only one small sump pump and they should have put a larger one in or at least another one." They called us this time because they knew we would do it right because they heard about us from a friend. We added our WaterGuard drains under the floor of the basement, all around the perimeter. We then hooked them up to our TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe is strong enough to handle extreme amounts of water because it has a primary pump, a secondary pump, and a battery backed up sump. Safe to say these homeowners are done looking for a waterproofing contractor to get it right.
