This customer called because they had water coming into their finished basement. They wanted an inspector to come out and find where the water is coming from and to fix it.
Our inspector Eric went out and found the water had been leaking from the basement window. Water was coming from outside to the window and leaking down the wall to the basement floor. We installed our patented WaterGuard system along the perimeter of the basement floor. To fix the window leaking we installed a window well drain that goes under the window and drains the water to the unseen WaterGuard system. To which drains the water to the Super sump that pumps the water out and away from the house.
This homeowner can now enjoy his finished basement knowing that water isn't leaking into his basement for years to come.
Cutomer called due to water buildup during the fall
This homeowner was experiencing leaking water in their basement. This can happen if there's cracks in the foundation walls or improper drainage was installed. It is usually the cause of too much water pressure puddling up and seeping into the basement. Once this homeowner noticed that their was a water problem, they called John's Waterproofing to get the issue solved and stop the water from flooding in. After discussing their options, they agreed to doing a basement waterproofing so they wouldn't have to worry about it happening again. Our crew first installed a drainage system, WaterGuard, along the interior perimeter of the basement. This is super important in order to control the flow of water and be able to direct it to the sump pump. Our SuperSump Plus sump pump is able to collect the water from the WaterGuard and send it safely away from the homes foundation. Because the homeowner wanted this to be a finished space, we then installed ThermalDry along the foundation walls. ThermalDry is a vapor barrier, made of waterproof material to prevent mold growth, that helps guide moisture from the walls down to the drainage system. It is shingled to the WaterGuard to ensure secure waterflow. Additionally, a SaniDry dehumidifier was installed that works to pull moisture out of the air and control the basement's environment. After the basement waterproofing process is completed, the homeowner gets to enjoy their healthy and dry basement again.
This customer called because they had water leaking into the basement for the wall. They had started to notice a musty smell in the basement and due to the moisture, they couldn't use their basement for storage. Our crew went out and installed our BrightWall paneling that is waterproof, stain resistant, and easy to clean. It is made of an inorganic material that works as a vapor barrier in the basement. It works along great with our WaterGuard drainage system to keep the basement dry from any further water leaking. The customer was so relieved to have a dry basement and with a growing family can now use their basement to store all their belongings.
The Xypex is put over the crack in the wall and will expand when water hits it, preventing the water from leaking through that crack into the basement.
