Amanda had water coming in her basement and it is now standing water. She needed a solution to the standing water and wanted it fixed so it woulnd't happen again. We decided the WaterGuard was the best option for her and the leaks. The drain is installed under the floor and collects the water that seeps into the basement. The WaterGuard takes the water collected and drains it to the sump pump to be expelled out of the home.
This Grand Ledge home had a large amount of water coming into the basement where the wall meets the floor. The father has asthma but with all the moisture in the home, the parents are worried the children will get asthma too. We had just the products to keep their home dry and free of water. First we installed the WaterGuard system which consists of a French drain. The drain is installed under the floor and collects water that seeps into the home. The water is then sent to the sump pump to be discharged out of the house. We installed the TripleSafe sump pump which provides three levels of protection for the home in case of a pump not working or a power outage and peace of mind for the family. Lastly, we installed the SaniDry XP. The SaniDry is a dehumidifier that keeps dry air circulating throughout the space to dry it out.
Kirk and Janae had about eight inches of water flooding their crawl space so they needed help encapsulating it. Therefore, our team installed CleanSpace, an uninterrupted vapor barrier.

This system creates an energy-efficient crawl space, and it also gives your crawl space a clean finish.

This system was perfect for this homeowner and put a stop to all water intrusion into her basement immediately.

These homeowners had water coming into the basement but the amaount depends on the amount of rain there was. They are not sure where the water comes from but they think it is from where the walls and the floor meet. We installed the WaterGuard system is a French drain that is installed under the floor but above the foundation to keep it out of the zone where the drain could clog. The system collects water that seeps through the walls in the basement and drains it to the sump pump.
Paul and his wife have water coming in from a corner of their finished basement where the floor meets the walls. There was no sump pump so when heavy rain comes, water pools in the area. We installed the WaterGuard drain system which is a drain under the floor but above the foundation to collect the water that seeps into the home. The water that is collected goes to the SuperSump Plus sump pump system that we also installed for them. The sump pump keeps the basement dry for extended periods of time, even in times of heavy rain. It has a back up battery in case there is a power outage so that water will still be discharged out of the home.

This Zeeland homeowner called us for a solution to the crack in her basement wall where water enters the basment. We installed the WaterGuard system to get the water out of her basement. The WaterGuard is a French drain system that is installed below the floor but above the foundation slab to keep it out of the area where drains can clog. The system collects the water that seeps into the basement from the walls and drans it to the sump pump to be drained out of the house. We also installed the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to keep her basement even drier. Concrete walls and floors continually absorb moisture from the soil and release it into the air in your basement but the SaniDry keeps dry air circulating throughout the space, aggressively drying out your basement. The collected water can be drained to the sump pump or the WaterGuard drain.
Amy was encountering many different issues in her basement, especially bowing walls. Therefore, she called our team to help her turn her basement into a liveable and safe space.

CarbonArmor prevents the inward movement of your walls and reduces their cracks. In addition, this system can easily be concealed in order to give your basement a finished, sleek look, making it perfect for Amy.
