Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Before

The owners found a crack in the poured concrete basement wall, which is a common occurrence. It does not pose as a structural issue but often times will lead to water leaks into the basement, causing a wet floor.  

After

Advanced Basement Systems installed their crack repair system called Flexispan. The system includes a urethane sealant in the crack, a drywell under the crack to drain the water and a polyurethane sealant on the wall to prevent water from leaking through. The entire system is flexible and will move with the wall as it moves over time during freeze / thaw cycles. 

Imagine never having to worry about your leaky basement again! Consider for a moment never worrying when it rains, the cleanup or the insurance hassles. And also imagine an inviting, clean, dry and usable space in your basement.

These homeowners in Port Stanley were fed up with their leaky basement: the wrecked floors, the damaged drywall and the constant musty odour. We are so happy to have helped thousands of families solve their wet basement challenges!

Porblem: Cracks coming off windows in poured foundations are a headache. Most solutions harden over time, crack and then fail as the foundation goes through freeze/thaw cycles. 

Solution: Our solution stays flexible to move with the foundation. it allows the water to be controlled.

Problem:  This historic home with a brick foundation in London had water entering the basement for decades. The basement was always very humid, damp and musty; the perfect environment for mould and mildew growth.

Solution: We installed a perimeter drain along the leaking walls which will move water into the home’s existing drainage system. To help keep the basement area comfortable and dry, our team installed ThermalDry® Basement Radiant Wall Barrier.

Problem: A bedroom was put into the basement, meaning there has to be a way to escape during a fire. We updated these egress window.

Solution: We installed a larger, nicer and safer egress window and window well. This allows a person to escape during an emergency and brings in much more daylight into the basement space.
