Before & After Photos

 A dirty, musty Elkhart basement received an unwanted host of spiders in the crawl space. A 1970s home's unsealed crawl space was letting in water and unwanted pests, mainly spiders. Upon inspection, our systems specialist did not find mold but noticed a heavy smell of mildew, indicating there were cracks that needed to be sealed because insects and moisture were seeping in. The cracks were likely due to the home's unstable foundation. Helical piers were set in place (not pictured) to restore the home to a stable foundation. A vapor barrier was then installed in the crawl space to eliminate moisture and points of entry for spiders.

A new homeowner in East Lansing, MI, wanted to enhance their recently purchased property by installing an egress window. Before the installation, the basement felt cramped and lacked natural light, making it less inviting. More importantly, the absence of an egress window posed safety concerns in the event of a fire, limiting escape routes.

We installed an egress window to address these issues, transforming the basement into a more functional and brighter space. This upgrade provides an emergency escape plan and adds valuable living space to the home. The homeowners can now enjoy a safer, more welcoming basement that enhances their new property's overall value and comfort.

Egress window was needed to brighten up a basement and increase the safety of the home. 

In Kalamazoo, MI, a homeowner's peaceful basement became a concern when a wet carpet and signs of infiltration were discovered. Left unchecked, these issues risked turning into larger, costly problems. As you can see in the photo before, the state was alarming - there was evident water damage in their block foundation. However, our solution transformed the space entirely. In the after photo, notice how our BrightWall paneling and WaterGuard system provide a clean, serene, and, crucially, dry environment. Combining these solutions, we've rectified the immediate water issue and safeguarded the basement against future threats - ensuring a pleasant and worry-free home for years.
