Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

The WaterGuard System is designed to keep basements dry by capturing water that seeps through basement walls and directing it to a sump pump. We installed it along the perimeter of this homeowner's basement floor to prevent water from pooling and causing damage. This ensures the basement stays dry and protected, even during heavy rains. After the system is installed and tested, it's sealed with concrete for a level, clean finish. 

This finished basement in Raleigh, NC was facing moisture issues after heavy rains, especially in the bedroom and bathroom areas. Water appeared to be entering from the slab, causing ongoing concerns for the homeowner.

To solve this, our team installed the WaterGuard® System along the interior perimeter of the basement. This specialized drainage track is designed to capture water seepage before it reaches the surface and direct it to the sump pump system. Once installed, the system was sealed with fresh concrete for a clean, flush finish. Now, this basement is protected and ready to stay dry, rain or shine.

We installed a TripleSafe sump pump system as part of our waterproofing process to ensure this basement stays dry. This system provides triple protection with three pumps: one for normal conditions, a secondary pump for heavy water flow, and a battery backup pump to keep working even during power outages. It’s a reliable solution to prevent water damage and maintain a dry, usable space.

The TrenchDrain system is designed to manage surface water by intercepting it before it can infiltrate vulnerable areas, such as basements or foundations. It consists of a grated drainage channel that collects water and directs it away from the structure through a connected pipe system. This helps to prevent water accumulation, which can lead to hydrostatic pressure against basement walls, leaks, and potential flooding. By effectively managing water runoff, the TrenchDrain system helps maintain the structural integrity of buildings and ensures a dry, safe environment.

WaterGuard, an interior drainage system, works by capturing water that enters the basement and directing it to the TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe sump pump, equipped with three pumps, ensures reliable water removal even during heavy rain or power outages. The CleanSpace vapor barrier is installed on the basement walls to prevent moisture from seeping through, thereby keeping the basement dry. This comprehensive system effectively manages water intrusion and humidity, ensuring a dry and healthy basement.
