Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

In Union, KY, this basement wall had started to bow inward due to long-term soil pressure from the outside. Left unaddressed, this kind of foundation damage can worsen over time, putting the home at serious risk. To stabilize the wall, we installed PowerBrace™ steel supports, designed to permanently reinforce and straighten bowed basement walls.

We also protected the area with a full CleanSpace® vapor barrier, helping to keep moisture out of the basement. Along the floor, we installed the WaterGuard® drainage system, which captures and redirects any water seepage to keep the basement clean and dry.

This Oxford basement had an old sump pump, an inefficient dehumidifier, and a moldy stone foundation. We replaced the sump pump with a SuperSump, upgraded the dehumidifier to a SaniDry Sedona, added drainage matting across the floor, and encapsulated the walls and floor with CleanSpace, transforming the space into a clean, dry, and healthy basement.

It may be hard to tell from the photo, but the carpet in this basement in Florence, KY, was absolutely soaked. We waterproofed this basement to make sure any new carpet that gets replaced stays as dry as a bone. Seen in the after picture is our TripleSafe sump pump connected to our subfloor WaterGuard drains. When we cut the drywall out, we made sure to do so carefully so the homeowner has an easy time replacing it. Our TripleSafe sump pump hosts a battery backup system to make sure this finished basement stays dry, even in the event of a power outage. The TripleSafe has an air-tight lid that is flush with the floor, so it doesn't take up much space and won't leak moisture into the basement.

This basement in Ansonia, OH, was struggling to keep water off of its floor. We waterproofed the basement by fitting the coves with our subfloor WaterGuard drainage system and installing a TripleSafe sump pump. We also equipped with damp basement with our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier for added moisture protection. Our TripleSafe sump pump has a battery backup system attached to it to keep the sump pump system running, even if the power were to go out. The homeowner was impressed with our crews attention to detail.

The basement in this home in Fort Mitchell, KY was moldy, wet, and dusty. We offered to install our waterproofing system for the homeowner, and they agreed. Our system included our WaterGuard subfloor drains, our SuperSump sump pump, and our CleanSpace vapor barrier walls. We love when our customers opt in for the white CleanSpace walls because not only do they look great for photos, they also provide support to the drainage system. The vapor barrier allows water to flow down from the walls into the drains beneath the floor, keeping musty water smells out from your living area. The vapor barrier also makes for a great pre basement finishing product as it can protect drywall and other types of walls from water damage. Even if you don't plan on finishing your basement, the vapor barrier can stand alone as a beautiful, clean, reflective wall, covering all the cracks, stains, and dirt.
