Before & After Photos

Basement wall leaks were still a problem during heavy rains with the existing basement waterproofing system in this Clayton, Missouri home.  We added our BrightWall® wall covering that looks like a finished wall and at the base we incorporated it into the existing wall flange.

With a slab foundation the concrete floor is where the sill plate of a frame structure would be.  When enough water can pool outside, the water can come directly in to the home and get on top of the slab.  An exterior drainage system must be in place lower than the slab floor seam/sill plate and drained to a lower spot away from the building.  In this case, it runs across the smaller section of a blacktop parking area near a garage.

Single sump pumps do not offer enough peace of mind if your home has a finished basement.  Also, the open lid lets water vapor out and the increased humidity can help mold to grow.  Our complete basement waterproofing system includes a WaterGuard® drainage system, TripleSafe® sump pump with sealed lid and battery backup pump. In this Oakville, Missouri home, we also installed the SaniDry® dehumidifier appliance, and BrightWall® giving the unfinished basement area a finished look, in addition to an IceGuard® discharge line and more.

This DuQuoin, Illinois basement was letting the dehumidifier (sitting on yellow crate) and basement floor drain protect it against leaks, which is not the way a proper waterproofing system works.  Our complete perimeter WaterGuard® system will drain any water leaking through the walls and floor cracks and the seepage from beneath the floor to a sump pump to help keep the basement dry!

Our WaterGuard® has an ICC number to meet the new construction building code.  Waterproof the basement right the very first time and save the headache and additional cost of having us out later! The homeowners who are now living in this Wildwood, Missouri home will never have to worry about their basement flooding for as long as they live in the home.
