Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

The pipe exiting the basement wall in the before photo had been leaking and filling up the cinder blocks with water. Our crews patch up leaks like these with the sentry seal sealant. It’s a thick, waterproof membrane that protects against groundwater. The pipe led water away from the basement to an outlet in the yard. But with a leak in the wall, the water that should have been pumped out of the basement just ended up seeping back through the walls. Because the sentry seal membrane is used on wall cracks that are below ground, the crew normally needs to excavate the soil around the leak. However, in this case, the soil had already been excavated. As you can see in the after photo, the crew even used sentry seal over the pipe to make sure that neither it nor the wall would leak again. 

A homeowner in Portage, MI, was dealing with water intrusion in the basement, which had spread to a corner and leaked into the laundry room. Without a sump pump, the problem persisted. To resolve the issue, we installed a TripleSafe sump pump, CleanSpace, a vapor barrier product, and our WaterGuard system to direct water into the sump pump. These solutions now keep the basement dry and protect the home from future water damage.

The homeowners in Portage, MI had water seeping into their basment through their floor. The water was starting to puddle and damage their basement floors. The homeowners had no exisiting sump pump so they were not sure what to do about the puddling water. 

Our professional team installed the TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe sump pump has three pumps in one giving you triple protection. The first pump will remove the water from you home. The second pump has a seperate discharge line and is more powerful. The second pump is there for you in the rare occasions that the first pump fails. The third pump is equipped with batteries, so it is there for you if the power goes out. 

Thanks to the TripleSafe sump pump the homeowners do not have to worry about water puddling and damaging their floors! 

Nobody likes it when their sidewalk is all jagged and out of place. It creates a tripping hazard which could effect anyone approaching your front door. However, with PolyLevel we can raise your sidewalk slabs so that they can be all even and flat, and with NexusPro Crack Repair we can fix any cracks caused by the concrete sinking.

It was an exciting time for Stephen as he was remodeling his basement and installing new carpet. He contacted our team to see about installing an egress window to ensure his home was in alignment with today's building codes. With the installment of our Egress Window, Stephen and his family not only have a safe emergency exit, but a brighter and more modern looking basement to match the rest of their renovations!
