Before & After Photos

Problem:  This older home had a problem with water penetrating a wall in their basement for years. This area in the basement flooded during times of rainfall, creating a damp, musty environment which often damaged their stored items.

Solution:  Our crew dug and installed a French drain system, waterproofed the problem wall and sealed it; altogether this system will keep this basement dry. Our drainage systems come with a written transferable lifetime warranty. On this project, like most projects, our installation crew installed a drain and sump pump system in less than two days.

Problem:  These homeowners had two walls that leaked nearly every time it rained. Because their basement was unfinished, and this area used just for storage, they never really paid too much attention to the wet basement.

However, over time the family was annoyed and embarrassed by the constant musty smell which was throughout their entire home. They also had to be careful not to leave any items of importance in this area, as they would be damaged by leaking water whenever it rained.

Solution: We were happy to provide this family with a permanent solution to their wet, musty basement! We installed a perimeter drain along the leaking walls which will direct any leaking water into their new, efficient and powerful sump pump system. We finished it off with ThermalDry® Basement Radiant Wall Barrier which not only keeps the basement warmer in the winter, it is inorganic (mould and mildew resistant) and helps direct water into the newly installed perimeter drain.

This Windsor home had a cold and leaky basement for years causing an unpleasant musty smell, mould and a high level of humidity. The entire home was affected by the undesirable basement environment: high heating costs, foul smells and a constant concern about the next rainfall.

Our team:

-         Waterproofed the leaking basement walls

-         Installed a powerful sump pump

-         Finished the space with ThermalDry® Basement Radiant Wall Barrier to help reflect heat (up to 97%) back into the basement.

Now the homeowners have a dry and healthy basement… and they never have to worry about leaks, damp smells or mould growth again! If you would like a permanent solution to your wet basement woes, please contact us to arrange for a free estimate: 1-866-375-9990

Sometimes homeowners are shocked to see what is behind their basement wall coverings, such as paneling or drywall. These Amherstburg, Ontario homeowners noticed:

-         Windows and doors were hard to open

-         Visible gaps between walls and floors and ceilings and walls

-         Cracks in the drywall near window and door frames

-         A slight slope in their floors

The problem? The scariest kind of crack: A horizontal crack and it was beginning to bow inwards.

We solved the problem with our The PowerBrace™ Wall Repair System.

In the "before" photo, you can see the tilt of the window frame is a result of a problem hidden behind the wall. 

We secured steel I-beams to the joists above the wall with heavy-duty steel brackets. The system not only stabilizes the wall and can often be tightened to help return the wall to its original position. The PowerBrace™ Wall Repair System does not require any exterior excavation and can be installed within just a couple of days.

Problem:  These owners made great use of this garage cellar as storage for their seasonal items, unfortunately, this area was experiencing water penetration for years. Mould was starting to form on the cardboard, damage items sitting on the floor and the musty smell was permeating, well… everything.

Solution: Advanced Basement Systems to the rescue! We installed CleanSpace® Drainage Matting to move the water to the updated drainage system and finished the walls off with our CleanSpace® Liner.

Now, these homeowners can store their items knowing they’ll stay safe and dry.
