Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This Alexandria, VA home had water damage in the basement.  Our sales professional Pedro went out to the property to perform a no cost home inspection and find the best possible solution. After the inspection Pedro able to show the homeowners that there were large gaps between where the basement walls met the floor, trapping water that seeped into the house. He determined that the best solution would be to install WaterGuard trench system to collect and divert the water out of the home via a sump pump. Once the project was approved, our service crew went out to the home. The crew started by removing all of the obstructions around the perimeter of the basement. After that, they dug out the trench to house the WaterGuard. Finally, the crew installed the WaterGuard and resealed the trench to complete the installation and protect the home from any future water damage.

This Winchester, VA homeowner was concerned about flooding in their basement and the water damage that came with it. They contacted 3 Pros Basement Systems for a free home inspection and to get an idea of what options were available to help. Our sales professional Stephen went out to provide a full home inspection and give the homeowner some options. After the inspection Stephen determined that the ideal solution would be to install a sump pump in the basement.  Our production crew started by digging out the planned trench lines and the sump pit in specifically chosen locations that would help increase the system's efficiency. Then, they installed the sump pump at the lowest spot in the basement and the drains at key points of interest chosen to maximize the system's effectiveness. After that, they installed the discharge line that led to a slope pointing away from the property so the water would flow away from the home. 

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.  

Homeowners in Markham, VA had water intrusion in their basement on multiple occasions and were ready to fix the problem. After receiving a free evaluation, they decided to take the steps needed to ensure their basement stays dry all the time. The 3 Pros Basement Systems team installed CleanSpace on the walls, WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement, and our TripleSafe Sump Pump. WaterGuard is an interior basement drainage system in which water enters via inlet holes and flows through the drainage pipe to the sump pump. Most sump pumps fail because of either a failed pump, a pump that can't handle high volumes of water or power failure. The TripleSafe assures protection from all three sump pump problems.
