Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

The bottom half of this drywall became compromised due to excess exposure to moisture. To waterproof this basement with our subfloor drainage system, we first needed to cut out the damaged parts of the drywall. After we cut the drywall and installed our WaterGuard subfloor drains underneath the concrete, we then installed our EverLast wall panels to replace the damaged drywall. The Everlast panels are waterproof and look beautiful. They are also made of vinyl and come in a variety of neutral colors, so that they match any wall. 

The bottom third of this drywall became soaked with moisture and started to grow must. When we gave a free quote to the homeowners, we showed them our EverLast drywall repair system, which is perfect for occasions like this. You see, in order to install our waterproofing system we have to cut the drywall to be able to install our WaterGuard subfloor drains. When we cut them, we can replace them with our waterproof Everlast panels, which look great. You won't have to worry about them growing musty smells or getting damaged from water thanks to their vinyl composition. They come in neutral colors and are washable, making for the perfect drywall replacement system.

The owner of this home had been living there five years when they gave us a call. They were concerned about humidity issues, as well as having to replace their furnace filter every year. You see, this dirt floor in the basement was throwing dirt and dust around everywhere, and then the furnace would throw the dirt all around the upper levels of the home. The high humidity levels were also making the furnace work twice as hard, as it's way more difficult to heat and cool humid air versus dry air. We got the job done by waterproofing the whole basement with a CleanSpace vapor barrier, drainage matting, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, and a SuperSump sump pump. 

On top of installing a full waterproofing system for this basement in Newport, Kentucky, we also installed our moisture barrier. Our CleanSpace vapor barrier is our most economical wall option, but comes with some great benefits. For one, it can channel water leaks coming from the wall into the subfloor drainage system. Secondly, it helps control the musty smells in basements, and will never grow mold thanks to its inorganic nature. Lastly, it is easily installed and looks beautiful! 

A 100-year-old home was having issues with water seeping into the basement. After meeting with us, the homeowner decided on our BrightWall paneling system, our WaterGuard subfloor drainage system, and our SuperSump premier sump pump system - equipped with an UltraSump battery backup system - to resolve the problems in the basement. 

BrightWall panels are used to cover the walls and will also help drain any wall leaks into the WaterGuard basement waterproofing system. The WaterGuard intercepts the water and drains it into the sump pump system. The SuperSump premier sump pump will remove the water from the basement at an elite rate. The UltraSump is the battery back-up pump system, and will turn on if there is ever a pump or power failure.

These systems working together will create a dry, comfortable basement that can be used without worries of water intrusion. The bright white color really brightens up the basement. Look at the difference this has made in this basement.
