John's Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This homeowner was struggling with strong odors coming from their crawl space so they wanted to find a solution that would permanently solve this issue. They reached out to John's Waterproofing to get the job done. After sending our system design specialist to perform a free estimate and inspection, he met with the homeowner to discuss options for this crawl space. They decided an encapsulation would be the best way to go. Not only does it improve air quality in the home, it also offers protection from mold and mildew and increases the home's value. It also reduces energy costs by creating a barrier against moisture and air leaks, which will help maintain a consistent temperature in the home. To begin this project we start by removing all the debris in the space.  Since this space did not have much water, we installed our SmartDrain system. This will alert the homeowner of a possible plumbing leak with an audible alarm and will drain the water into a drywell underneath the CleanSpace until the homeowner can address the leak. Then, we install our TerraBlock directly on the dirt floor of the crawl space and this will create an insulated barrier between the home and the earth. On top of the TerraBlock, we install our CleanSpace system all along the foundation walls, up to the rim joists and seal all the vents in the space to ensure no outside air enters. We make sure to seal the CleanSpace with our waterproof tape against the footing of the wooden posts. We install our SaniDry Sedona to control the environment and this will eliminate the damp musty odors the homeowner was concerned about by drying and filtering the air. It will also keep the space at a healthy relative humidity. The final step is to install our foam insulation. We spray the foam along the walls of the foundation, up to the rim joists providing a well insulated and airtight crawl space for this homeowner. 

This homeowner called us first to discuss waterproofing her crawlspace, and then asked if we could also repair her concrete driveway. We let her know that we are experts in both of those fields! After completing a thorough inspection, and presenting her with a no-obligation quote, the homeowner decided to move forward with waterproofing her crawlspace, and with the removal and replacement of her driveway. After finishing waterproofing her crawlspace, we began working on the driveway. It was damaged past the point of being repaired, so we chipped out and removed the old concrete. Next, we laid down our forms, and then poured the new concrete. After it solidified, we gave it a beautiful broom finish! This homeowner was very excited to have her crawlspace waterproofed, and with a spectacular new driveway to boot!

This business owner was eager to have a concrete sidewalk placed on the side entrance to their building before the rainy season began. After researching, to make sure they selected the best company for the job, they decided they would hire John's because of the highly positive reviews they read online. They called us, letting us know that they wanted this work completed ASAP. We quickly sent out our Design Specialist to the building, to take measurements and provide a free quote. The business owners were pleased with the professionalism and expertise of our Design Specialist, as well as the reasonable quote, and they asked us how quickly we could start the job. We let them know that we would start and finish the job before the rains came, as they requested. The day we were scheduled to complete the work, the forecast showed rain in the late afternoon. Knowing this, we brought along the materials we would need to protect the freshly poured slab from the rain. Early that morning, our concrete crew arrived and got straight to work. First, we built the wooden concrete frame, laid down concrete dobies for extra support, and placed the rebar. Next, we poured the concrete into the frame, and gave it a nice broom finish. We knew rain was coming later that day, so we built a rain cover out of PVC pipe and plastic tarping, protecting the newly finished sidewalk from the rain. We made sure the cover was tight and completely sealed - providing an excellent defense against the imminent weather. After the concrete was completely solidified, we removed the rain cover, revealing a beautifully finished new concrete sidewalk entrance to the side of this building. This business owner is thrilled to have a concrete side entrance to their building, so that both themselves and their employees can safely enter from now on without tracking in so much mud and wetness.

This basement had a vertical crack that was separating the foundation wall in the basement. As the bow got worse, the floor began to crack and pieces were loose. The owners began to remove the broken pieces of the floor, but it kept breaking apart as pieces were removed until a large section of the floor was gone. To address the stability issue and the floor, John's Waterproofing was called upon. We installed a form along the foundation wall, installing steel and concrete into the form to fortify the new foundation section we would pour. Once dry, the form was removed and what was left behind was a stable and healthy wall to support the home. 

This homeowner was interested in having a whole home generator installed. They didn't want to have to worry about the inconvenience of a power outage or the costs that are associated with it. They loved how John's does the install from start to finish using the plumbing and electrical divisions, and were happy with how smooth the installation for the generator and the automatic transfer switch went.
