Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Before and after of WaterGuard and CleanSpace wall system in a basement located in Pleasant Hill. 

Crawl space in Vancouver, WA that just wasn't running as efficiently as it should be and needed some updating. A SaniDry XP dehumidifier was installed which helps large areas that are plagued by excess humidity along with SaniDry upper and lower duct kit and CleanSpace, ensuring this customer has a dry clean efficiently running system underneath his house.

This homes basement had long been an issue. The space flooded often and the owners had pretty much written the space off. This is until they began wishing they could add that square footage as storage. Now they had a reason to upgrade. They had the plumbing upgraded and had John's out to waterproof the space. We installed our WaterGuard drain system along the interior perimeter of the room. This collects and channels the water to the new TripleSafe sump pump. This than sends all the water safely away from the homes foundation. We then installed our BrightWall paneling along the foundation walls. This will provide a semi-finished look for the space, which is easy to clean and will not rot or mildew. The owners are excited to make use of this space for the first time since purchasing the home. 

This family was tired of having their finished basement leaking, so they called on their local waterproofing experts at John's for help! When our Design Specialist arrived at their home, he was equipped with many years of experience, and was able to efficiently inspect the basement and offer waterproofing solutions to the owner. As the family was very eager to have the work completed so that they could finish their basement, we scheduled their job.

To waterproof the leaking walls, our crew of waterproofing experts installed 2 of our most effective basement waterproofing systems - ThermalDry and WaterGuard. These 2 systems work together to prevent water from entering your basement. Firstly, the ThermalDry Wall System is installed directly onto the concrete foundation walls. ThermalDry is a 2-sided waterproof barrier that prevents water from damaging sheetrock, while also reflecting heat back into your home - saving homeowners money on energy costs. This durable barrier will route all wall-water intrusion downward, and into our WaterGuard Collection Tunnels installed at the base of the leaking walls. These are held firmly in place with concrete. These tunnels will catch all intrusive water, and route it down to a SuperSump Pump, for immediate expulsion safely away from the home via an underground discharge line. Our ThermalDry and WaterGuard Systems will remain permanently installed behind sheetrock with inspection ports placed periodically for service purposes, promising that water damage to this basement will be a thing of the past. With their basement now waterproofed, this family can refinish their basement. Our professionally installed waterproofing systems are installed with the highest level of integrity and expertise, giving homeowners peace of mind in knowing that the job was done right. Backed by over 50 years of experience in the waterproofing industry, homeowners can count on John's for all of their waterproofing needs, with WOW service every step of the way!
