John's Waterproofing Before & After Photos

After experiencing years of water intrusion in the crawl space, this homeowner started noticing a musky odor in their home. They decided to inspect the crawl space and found that the fiberglass insulation was completely destroyed from moisture damage. It was falling from the sub-floor and beginning to mold and mildew. They decided to call John's Waterproofing about a solution for their insulation. We informed the homeowners that when we do full encapsulations, TerraBlock gets installed. This is a 3/4 inch thick insulation foam that goes along the base of the space. It is designed to seal the earth off from the home and help regulate the environment. By keeping the temperature in the crawl space the same, this helps with energy efficiency because the heating/cooling systems don't have to work as hard to keep up with the changing outdoor climate. TerraBlock gets cut to perfectly fit each individual crawl space, therefore it can avoid having gaps or holes for water to intrude through. The TerraBlock is then covered over with CleanSpace, a 20 Mil woven vapor barrier that anchors along the walls by the rim joist. Overall, this homeowner was very pleased with their new insulation and cleaning up the crawl space to rid the smell in their home.

This homeowner noticed that the floors in their living room were beginning to sag. In certain spots, the floors even felt bouncy when you walked on them like the house was settling into the soil. Knowing that this was an older home and the soil had changed, the homeowner decided to call John's Waterproofing about our foundation repair solutions. For this home, we recommended installing 5 Push Piers along the foundation of the home to raise the house and keep it stabilized. These piers are driven into the ground using a hydraulic ram and uses the weight of the structure to help add more support. By installing these steel Push Piers, this offers the homeowners a permanent solution to their homes settling foundation. 

The WaterGuard will sit right where that previous water was leaking in from catching it and sending out of the basement keeping this basement dry and healthy for years to come!

This home had water condensation build up on their walls, to waterproof we did a WaterGuard drainage system along the parameter and BrightWall paneling to keep water diverted down to the new drainage system. 

We replaced this old sump pump that was not working properly with our Supersump Sump pump. with this top of the line sumppump working properly, along with The Cleanspace Encapsulation and the Sanidry Dehumidifier, this crawlspace/basement combination will now stay dry.
