Before & After Photos

This basement waterproofing job required a Cleanspace Vapor Barrier, waterguard and a stairwell drain

Before reaching out to Basement Systems USA, the homeowner in Rosedale, MD faced recurring flooding issues in their basement whenever it rained. Water consistently seeped up from the floor, leaving behind puddles and a damp, musty smell that made the basement unusable. Determined to protect their home, they sought help for a permanent solution. After a thorough inspection, Basement Systems USA installed a WaterGuard perimeter drainage system and a CleanSpace wall system. WaterGuard was placed below the basement floor, capturing water as it entered and directing it away from the home’s foundation. The CleanSpace wall system, a durable vapor barrier, was installed on the walls to prevent moisture infiltration and to channel any condensation into the WaterGuard system.

Today, the basement stands dry and transformed, providing a usable, mold-resistant space for storage or future finishing. The homeowner no longer has to worry about water intrusion, thanks to the proactive waterproofing solution Basement Systems USA delivered.

This Pylesville homeowner contacted Basement Systems USA for basement waterproofing. They stated with a heavier rainfall water would come in through one wall of the unfinished basement. Currently the only waterproofing system in play was a sump pump, but a sump pump will not work if the water getting in to the basement, can not make its way over to be pumped out. Our solution to this wet problem was to install our CleanSpace Vapor barrier and Waterguard around the problematic wall. The CleanSpace and Waterguard will work together to get the water coming in through the wall, over to the SuperSump Pump we installed as well.

When a family in Pylesville, Maryland, started noticing recurring moisture in their basement, they were concerned about potential damage to their home. They wanted a safe, dry space that they could utilize fully, so they reached out to us at Basement Systems USA for help. Their basement walls showed signs of water infiltration, particularly after heavy rains, and they knew it was time to make a change. The basement walls revealed clear signs of moisture, with small pools of water forming near the foundation during each rainstorm. After assessing the situation, we proposed a comprehensive waterproofing solution that included installing our high-capacity sump pump system, paired with an effective perimeter drainage system. This system would intercept any water before it could collect on the floor.

The transformation was remarkable. With the installation complete, the homeowner could finally enjoy a basement free of dampness and odors. 

This customer was experiencing water on the basement floor every time it was raining, and even though he had a sump pump, it just could not keep up with the amount of water getting in to the basement. We came out and installed our SuperSump Pump which is equipped with a 1/3HP Zoeller cast iron pump which pumps out 2,650 gallons per hour, the SuperSump is also equipped ith a WaterWatch Alarm System which will sound off if water rises above the point where the pump should turn on, a SuperLiner that has 96 holes that allows water to flow in directly below the floor and an Airtight Lid that keeps out bugs, odors and radon gas.
