A homeowner in District Heights, MD, was grappling with the persistent challenges of a wet basement. The problems were hard to miss—peeling paint, damp walls, and an uncomfortable, humid environment that made the space unusable. Beyond the visible damage, there was also growing concern about potential long-term risks like mold growth and structural deterioration. Determined to restore their basement and protect their home, the homeowner reached out, looking for an effective and permanent solution.

After a thorough inspection, we identified the key issues and proposed a comprehensive basement waterproofing plan tailored to the home’s needs. The first step was addressing moisture seeping into the space. To tackle this, we recommended the CleanSpace vapor barrier system, designed to seal out moisture and create a clean, bright surface on the basement walls. Next, to manage and redirect water effectively, we introduced the WaterGuard interior drainage system, which captures water at the entry point along the perimeter and channels it to the sump pump. The backbone of the system was the SuperSump pump, a high-performance unit capable of efficiently removing water during heavy rainfall, ensuring the basement stayed dry at all times. To safeguard against clogs caused by freezing during colder months, we added the reliable IceGuard discharge line protection system, providing an extra layer of security.

This combination of solutions addressed both the current moisture issues and the risk of future water damage, transforming the problematic space in the process. The results were remarkable. The dark, damp basement was transformed into a dry, clean, and functional area. The CleanSpace liner not only acted as a moisture barrier but also gave the basement a refreshed, polished look. Together, the WaterGuard, SuperSump, and IceGuard systems worked seamlessly to keep water out and maintain a comfortable environment, even during Maryland’s unpredictable weather.

The homeowner was overjoyed with the transformation, knowing their basement was now protected against future water challenges and that the upgraded space had added considerable value to their home.
