Your Dependable Seaside, OR Wet Basement Repair & Sump Pump Installation Experts

These homeowners called when they noticed some doors were sticking in their frames. They had looked for an issue and found some wooden posts under the home were rotting. For help, they called up John's Waterproofing. After a thorough inspection we found three posts were rotting, and mold was growing behind the fiberglass insulation that was present. 

To help out, we began by removing the old fiberglass insulation and debris from under the home. Once the space was cleaned out we installed three SmartJacks. These are non-organic posts which give the home stability and can fix structural issues such as sticking doors. Once the space was stable again, we applied Mold X2 as needed and laid down a 6 mil vapor barrier. To help this barrier, we overlap the edges, and run it up the wall. 

As new construction began to occur around this home, the foundation of the home began to shift. When homes settle, the foundation can crack water intrusion can occur, in this home, cracks appeared around the basement window wells and along with one of the walls. To protect their home, the homeowners called up John's Waterproofing. 

Our crew arrived and began by sealing up the cracks with Parasail. We then installed a new Galvanized window well to keep water out of the space. To collect groundwater we then installed a WaterGaurd drainage system along with the interior parameter. This would grade the water to a newly installed TripleSafe sump pump where the water then went out and away from the foundation of the home to a LawnScape outlet. We then installed a SaniDry dehumidifier to keep this space dry and healthy. 

This home's old fiberglass insulation was falling to pieces from water weight. This water also had begun to grow mold spores that were beginning to mold the wooden foundation beams as well. To reclaim a healthy crawlspace, the homeowners called in John's Waterproofing. 

Our crew came out and began by removing the old insulation. We then added Mold X2 to kill the mold before the problem progressed. To keep the groundwater moving, we installed a SmartSump with an UltraSump pump backup. We then laid down our TerraBlock crawlspace insulation. The space then had our 20 Mil vapor barrier; CleanSpace, installed. This wraps around each post footing to protect against water damage and this barrier is also anchored along the walls. We then Used spray foam along the foundation walls to ensure this space was fully insulated. To ensure this space would stay dry and healthy we also installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. 

Over time moisture had been getting into this customers crawlspace causing a huge issue. Mold had started to grow all over the crawlspace. Since up to 50% of the air you breathe comes from your crawlspace, he decided to give us a call for an inspection. 

Our inspector Vincent went out to check the crawlspace and come up with a plan to fix the problem. He recommended that we do a crawlspace encapsulation with our CleanSpace system. First, we would take care of all the mold with our Mold X2 cleaner that not only kills all the mold but removes the stains left behind.  We would install our TripleSafe sump pump that has three levels of pumps to ensure any water issues moving forward would be covered, and it also has a WaterWatch Alarm that will alert you if the water rises above the range to prevent damage. Paired with our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, and air filtration to keep the humidity down, mold and moisture cannot form. Encapsulated with our Cleanspace barrier and a new downspout for water to drain far away from the building water will never be an issue. 

Our customer was eager to have Delfino and his crew get started on his crawlspace. He now doesn't have to worry about water and moisture causing issues in his crawlspace and peace of mind knowing there is no more mold. 

This homeowner was concerned about the amount of water entering into his crawlspace and the damage it was causing to his foundation. Being from the coastal area, water concerns are very common. After inspection, Jacob suggested installing our patented Cleanspace waterproofing system, a Smart Sump pump with an Ultra Sump back up battery system, and Mold X.

Cameron and his team quickly began to work towards waterproofing Paul's crawlspace. They installed out patented Cleanspace encapsulation system which serves to completely keep out all moisture and act as a barrier for insulation. This was installed with a Smart Sump pump with the backup battery Ultra Sump so that if power should go out, the sump pump will continue to work. We also used Mold-X which is a highly effective cleaner for the mold contaminated beams in the crawlspace.

Now that our waterproofing system is in place, Paul no longer has concerns over water entering his crawlspace and causing water damage and mold.
