Before & After Photos

We recently had a project on an older home out in Covington, Kentucky. The basement was constantly flooding anytime it rained. The owners were tired of having to vacuum the water out each time it rained, so they decided to take care of it once and for all. It was a very prototypical waterproof job for us that required WaterGuard, a Super Sump Plus, an Ultra Sump 4, and a SaniDry Sedona. We also installed a trench drain, a guard around the water heater, and a CleanSpace wall. We used two sumps for this job considering how much rain this basement receives and how susceptible it is to leaking. After installation, the owners had no problem with rain and they can now focus on other better things to do with their time instead of constantly cleaning water out of their basement. 

This home was in need of an interior waterproofing system that is able to pump out high amounts of water. We installed a Super sump, an Ultra sump 4, WaterGuard, and BrightWall to solve these problems. 

The effects of hydrostatic pressure can be very profound. After all, a cubic foot of water weighs around 60 pounds. Depending on the surface area of your basement walls, this can mean over 1,000's of pounds of inward pressure on your walls! Unfortunately for this basement in Covington, KY, the built up water around the outside of the foundation was resulting in cracks, leaks, and bowed walls. We were able to relieve the immense weight off the walls by installing our interior perimeter waterproofing system, along with our PowerBrace wall repair system. As the waterproofing system drains the water away from the walls, the PowerBrace system actively shifts the wall back to a straight plane. We also installed our BrightWall paneling system, which will help drains the cracked walls and provide some aesthetic benefits as well. Give us a call if hydrostatic pressure is terrorizing your home for a free inspection! 

This poured foundation wall in the basement was leaking water due to built up hydrostatic pressure from the outside. We Begun to fix this problem by applying a flexible sealant along the leaking crack. Then, we placed a strip of flexible, porous foam over the sealant. Finally, we attached an impermeable membrane to the wall. This setup ensures that any future water seepage through the crack is directed discreetly into the drainage system below. The result was a happy customer who could finally finish their basement wall once again. 

This home in Harrison, Ohio was having some water leak through some cracks, which were hidden behind some water pipes. In order to stop the leaking, we applied some FlexiSpan over the wall. FlexiSpan helps stop leaks, and although some water does still end up still leaking, the FlexiSpan guides the remainder water to a proper drain.
