Before & After Photos

A customer had foundation issues which was causing water to enter his basement through his window. Most windows offer minimal protection against outside air and moisture entering the home due to poor insulation around the window. Egress windows help ventilate your indoor areas and prevent unwanted allergens from entering your house.

You can see the stark difference an egress window makes in this Michigan City, MI home. Egress windows bring in light to an otherwise dark basement. Egress windows are also required by law in any basement bedroom to allow for an easy escape in case of an emergency. These windows are also keep cold air and water out.

This Long Beach homeowner had a finished basement and wanted to install an Egress window. Egress windows create a safe exit in case of emergencies due to the size of the window and the window well which contain steps. The Egress windows also allow for an abundance of natural light to enter the space which gives off a welcoming feel and makes the room look larger!

The owner of this Caledonia, MI home recently noticed that water was leaking in through the corner walls of the basement. He was so concerned by the amount of water that entered, he immediately dug up the soil that was around the wall as seen in the before photo. In the after photo, you can see the Sentry Seal solution that the crew used to make sure that water didn’t leak through again. The sealant is made of a black membrane that’s attached to the walls using a sticky resin to hold them in place. Once the membrane was fully attached, the crew replaced the soil and completed the installation. 

Mike called us becuase he notcied that there were leaks in the basement walls and during heavy rain there were puddles. We installed the WaterGuard system to keep his basement dry. The WaterGuard is a French drain that is designed to be installed below the floor slab so that it is out of the "mud zone" and won't clog. The system collects water as it seems in from the walls and drains it to the sump pump. It installs quickly and has a clean finish.
