Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Every spring this home would struggle to keep up with the water that leaked into the basement after the snow thawed. There was already a sump pump in place, but it wasn’t capable of discharging the necessary amount of water to keep the basement dry. After the crew installed a perimeter drainage system that would direct all leakage to the sump, the owner also thought it would be a good idea to upgrade the sump pump system as well. The sump in the after photo is one of our more dependable sump pump systems, the SuperSump. Luckily for the owner, the basement only leaked during extreme weather, so it made sense for him to go with one of our more cost-effective sumps that would provide full protection only when needed. It was the perfect upgrade to complement the rest of this Muskegon, MI basement’s new waterproofing system.

The homeowners were noticing water coming into their basement when there was heavy rain. The sump pump they had in their basement just wasn't effectively removing water from their home causing water damage on their basement floors.

Out professional team installed a SuperSump sump pump to combat this problem. The SuperSump system is a full-featured system that includes the best components available. The SuperSump removes water from your basement into a drainage system that takes the water outside your home. It includes the SuperLiner, which is an airtight lid that looks more attractive, keeps pests out and eliminates safety hazard of an open sump pump. It has a floor drain in case an unforeseen accident puts water on your basement floor. It includes a WaterWatch Alarm, which alerts you if the water level rises above the sump pump intake. It has a cast-iron pump to prevent overheating and burnout. It has a CleanPump pump stand that elevates the sump pump to prevent clogging.  It has a check valve to prevent pumped water from re-entering.  Lastly, it has an improved float valve to ensure long-term performance.  

Becuase of the SuperSump sump pump, the homeowner's basement is now clean and dry! 

Water was flooding a homeowner’s basement because his old sump pump wasn't working. So our team installed TripleSafe, a sump pump system that’s main purpose is to keep your basement dry. This system provides ultimate protection against all basement leakage and any moisture problems because it has three pumps within this one system. One of the pumps is battery powered so that the system can work even during power outages.

Kandi M. from Muskegon, MI had terrible bowing walls in her basement, as well as horizontal and vertical cracks lining the block seams. She believes that when she had  a tree removed from her property previously, the cracks and bowing could have been caused. This said, we had a solution.

For this project, we installed the PowerBrace wall repair system. PowerBrace is a wall repair system that stabilizes tilting, bowing, or buckling basement walls. The system uses steel I-beams that secure to the joists above the wall to provide the maximum support for the wall. 

This installment ensures a noninvasive yet very effective fix.

A customer was having trouble keeping water out of his basement even though he already had a waterproofing system. So he called our team and we installed TripleSafe, a sump pump system that has three pumps so it can handle your highest pumping demands. One pump is powered by batteries which prevents flooding even during power outages.
