Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This porch and adjacent sidewalk were settling unevenly into the ground, creating voids and gaps. We lifted the sidewalk and the porch with our expansive foam jacking method, effectively leveling all of the slabs out. The result is a stable porch and an even sidewalk.

This basement in Springfield, KY, was leaking nearly every time it rained. We waterproofed the basement by wrapping our WaterGuard subfloor drains around the interior perimeter of the basement, and installing our TripleSafe sump pump. Our system is minimally invasive compared to other exterior solutions, as our system doesn't require digging around a homes foundation on the outside. Instead, our WaterGuard drains sit above the footing of the home from the inside. This way our system isn't susceptible to clogging from soil. The drains were pitched down towards the lowest graded part of the basement floor, right where we installed our TripleSafe sump pump. Our TripleSafe is our most secure system, as it comes with three pumps including a battery backed pump. The homeowner was happy they don't have to worry about flooding anymore afterwards. 

This crawl space in Ghent, KY, was skirted on one side but had stone walls everywhere else. The homeowner was concerned with their sagging floor joists in the crawl space, as well as dust and mold. To prevent mold and odors, control the moisture and dust, and permanently stabilize the floors, we wrapped the crawl space with our 20 mil CleanSpace vapor barrier, set up our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, and we installed a SmartJack post system. This system helped even out the floors above the crawl space, and it helped reduce musty odors and dust from entering the rest of the home.

This homeowner wanted an egress window installed in their finished basement so that they could claim a bedroom on their homes appraisal. We started by digging a trench and cutting the concrete to make room for the 35x54 inch window and the RockWell window well. The well mimics a natural stone, and is made of a high-strength fiberglass composite. The well contains stair steps, allowing for easy access. The window well cover is translucent and allows for natural sunlight to fill the basement. We also made sure to caulk all the seams correctly. The homeowner was very happy with the outcome. 

This basement in Libery, KY, had someone sleeping in it regularly, so the homeowners wanted to install an egress window for safety. After digging down and cutting the wall to make room for the well, we then installed a 35" x 54" crank out window. We then got around to installing a RockWell window well, that mimics natural stone and has built in steps for easy access. All that was left to do was tear the film off of the retractable lid. The homeowner now has a giant, beautiful new window that will allow for sunlight and a safe exit strategy.
