Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Problem: This dark, wet, humid space needs to not only have its water problem managed, it could use a facelift! These types of conditions in a basement allow for very little use of the space.

Solution: Our waterproofing system (with a lifetime warranty) is installed. Also, we installed our ThermalDry Wall Membrane which is a radiant barrier and reflect 97% of the heat and light back into the space.

Problem:

These Kent Bridge homeowners experienced water entering their basement a few times in the last 5 years. They were not only looking for a permanent solution to their leaky basement, but also an attractive finishing option.

Solution:

Here’s what our team did: 

• Waterproofed the leaky basement walls with an in-floor drain which safely move water into the sump pump and away from the home. 

• We removed the lower part of the paneling and wood wall joists, as they were mouldy from the water entering.

• We installed steel wall joists, which will never rot or grow mould. 

• We installed a radiant wall barrier which helps ensure any leaking water is directed into the in-floor drain. 

• We finished the space with EverLast™ Finished Wall Restoration System, and Thermal Dry carpet, both which are made of inorganic material, so they will never mould or rot!

What a fantastic transformation! We can assure you that these homeowners are thrilled with the results.

Problem:  These homeowners in Kent County were experiencing a leaky basement for years. They were reluctant to fix the problem as they assumed that their driveway and landscaping would be destroyed in the process. In the meantime, the wet basement environment was ruining their stored items, resulting in damage and mould.

Solution: Our basement waterproofing system does not affect the outside appearance of homes. Our system directs the leaking water away from the walls and floors and into a new drain and upgraded sump pump. We finished off the walls with our ThermalDry® Basement Radiant Wall Barrier which not only keeps the water from leaking into the basement but also improves the comfort of the entire home and helps to reduce energy costs.

Problem: This home had evidence of a leaky basement. Concrete is porous and over time, water can work its way in and cause damage.

Solution:  We installed a perimeter drain in the floor along the problem basement walls. We also installed the ThermalDry® Wall system. As moisture and water passes through concrete foundation walls, the ThermalDry® Wall systems serves as both a vapour barrier and as a way to redirect water leaking into the newly installed drainage system below.
