John's Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This homes window well was concrete and water was getting through it, and needed to be upgraded. Due to landscaping the ground level had been risen, to accommodate this the homeowners had added a layer of bricks. But water had made its way through the porous material and the carpet in their finished basement was getting damp by this window in particular. To upgrade it we installed drainage for the window well that will feed into the basement waterproofing system. And the well itself was upgraded to a WellDuct system. 

This homeowner reached out to John's Waterproofing after realizing that water was getting into their basement through the walls every time there was heavy rainfall. They wanted a solution that would protect their basement throughout the wet seasons and still look nice. They agreed that doing a basement waterproofing system would perfect to solve their problems. This is when we install a drainage system along the interior perimeter of the basement. WaterGuard is a pipe system that goes beneath the foundation floors that catches water and gives it a safe passageway to flow through without getting into the basement. It is lined with gravel to filter the water through, preventing clogging and is covered over with concrete to be discreet. It connects to a TripleSafe sump pump that works to push the water from the WaterGuard out and away from the homes foundation. We then installed a CleanSpace wall vapor barrier. This white liner gives the appearance of a clean look while also protecting the walls from moisture. It is made with woven fibers that seal to the walls with waterproof tape. This vapor barrier guides moisture from the walls down to the drainage system to be pushed away from the home. With all these steps completed, this basement is no longer at risk of water seeping through during any season and also has a clean look for the homeowner.

This huge basement had always been an eye sore and the damp and sporadically leaking walls left the family not wanting to use the space. After installing our Waterguard system and Bright Wall panels, the space had a far more polished look and was a space the family would use. 

In this job, our foreman Tim completed a quick replacement of a torn and wet vapor barrier. In addition to the vapor barrier replacement, Tim and his crew also installed an Ultra Sump system in order to handle water in the crawlspace. This helped ensure a dry and healthy space for our homeowner. 

Customer called about standing water in their crawlspace and replacing the vapor barrier. We installed a TripleSafe sump and replaced the vapor barrier.
