Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Installation of a Water Guard, sub floor waterproofing system and a sump pump along with a moisture barrier along the base of the walls helped transform this wet basement into a cleaner, drier space.  

This basement in Woodbridge VA had an existing sump pump that was not solving all of the water issues in the home.  Although it was properly placed in the lowest spot of the basement, there was still uncontrolled water collecting in the basement that was not getting to the sump pump for discharge out of the home.  In addition to a full sub floor Water Guard system and Moisture Controlling wall coverings, the home owner opted for a new sump pump installation to compliment it all.  Our Super Sump has 2 pumps and will recover to keep water discharging out of the basement even if the first pump gets overwhelmed.  

This basement in Woodbridge Virginia had unwanted water issues. The walls were cold and had been allowing external water to come through the foundation of the home.  After installing Water Guard below the cement floors to lead collected water tot he sump pump, the walls were covered with Clean Space material.  This moisture barrier keeps the water contained and helps the air in the basement from being as humid as it was.  A clean look improves the feel in the basement.  

Having a sump pump can save you from potential basement flooding.  When a sump pump is working, it handles more than just water.  It also pumps in the loose dirt and sediment that comes along with that unwanted basement water.  Annual service is the key to keeping your sump pump clean and working the way it is supposed to.  Here you have a great example of a sump pump that has been doing its job.  Taking it apart and cleaning out the corrosion, dirt, and nastiness that is collected while it pumps out water is part of our service and maintenance coverage.  We service clients who had their units installed by us and clients with old units that need service.  

This Winchester VA home had a sump pump installed as part of a basement waterproofing project we performed last year.  The homeowner called to ask about an annual service check after some recent rains had caused the sump pump to run for a long period of time.  Our Service Tech Brent went out to visit and checked the whole system.  The sump pump had been exposed to lots of water and had sediment building up inside.  Brent took the unit apart and gave it a full cleaning before putting it back in place.  We service all sump pumps, even if we did not install them.
