John's Waterproofing Before & After Photos

It is a shame when you have a great house and this potential space that you could do something great with but water and humidity prevent you from using the space at all. Here at John's, we have a wide array of products specifically designed for basement living. We will help you get from Basement to Beautiful. 

Here is a customer in Portland, Oregon called stating that his sump pump wasn't working or pumping out water. When our team went out to look they found this homemade sump pump that definitely was not working and there was standing water and much in the crawl space. The Foreman went over all of the issues and the possible fixes with the customer and they decided that a full encapsulation was the best choice. Customer now has a clean, dry crawl space that is virtually maintenance-free while also helping cut costs on his energy consumption. 

This old vapor barrier had been installed by another company and was ready to be replaced. To give the waterproofing system a longer lifespan, the homeowners opted to upgrade to a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier and Crawlspace Specific Insulation. 

We came out to this home that had no vapor barrier, cracks in the walls, water leaking in, and the insulation needed a serious update. They were spending hundreds of extra dollars a year in energy bills just trying to keep the home comfortable for them. That’s when we stepped in and did a CleanSpace encapsulation, crack repair, added drainage and a dehumidifier, and then coated the walls with closed cell spray foam insulation. Making this crawl space clean, dry, warm and energy efficient year-round.

This homeowner was concerned by their high heating and cooling costs. They knew that their floorboards were very cold when the weather outside was chilly, and when they glanced into the crawlspace they found the space to have condensation and damp walls. They called up John's Waterproofing to hear about their options. We sent out a specialist who confirmed the condensation along the foundation walls, large drafts, and signs of critters. To solve the homes issues we suggested an encapsulation and when we were done the homeowners were thrilled with the transformation. The crawlspace was now bright and their bills were going down!
