Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Leaking cracks in the basement are never good, so when this home in Wakefield, RI found the crack in the foundation wall was letting water in, they knew they had to do something! Our FlexiSpan wall system is a permanent solution for leaking wall cracks and is one you can trust. We use a flexible sealant deep inside the crack and cover that with a secondary drainage layer that will direct any water into the waterproofing system installed, in the slim chance the sealant doesn’t hold up. On top of all that we add another layer of sealant to give the repair a finished and clean look!

The window well on this South Kingstown, RI basement window was filling with water during heavy rains, which would then leak into the basement, leaving puddles behind since there was no waterproofing solution in place. Window wells are not an efficient waterproofing solution, but a sturdy window well with a waterproofed basement can make a great pair! In this home, our team upgraded the broken well to our SunHouse window well, which would keep out debris and a lot more water compared to the old one. They also installed a WellDuct drain so that if any water leaks through, it would be enclosed in the drain and go into the WaterGuard piping and TripleSafe sump pump in the basement for removal!

The home owner in South Kingstown, Rhode Island had water problems since the home was built. They did have a sump pump system installed but it was not working as it should. They had major ground water problems, seepage and cracks. In this before and after you can see that the foundation was poured with a hole for a sump but the hole was not in the correct area of the basement. We did install a sump pump system that will adequately take care of their ground water problem and keep the water away from the basement. 

This basement in Wakefield, RI had a basic open sump pit with room for one pump. The customers wanted a closed system with a lid and additional protection. The existing pump was running nonstop, even when it wasn't raining. Our solution was to upgrade the sump to a TripleSafe. The TripleSafe has three pumps that are staggered in the liner so when water hits the pump that is lowest in the liner, it will engage. Next, if the water levels continue to rise and the first pump cannot keep up with the amount of water, the 2nd pump will engage. These two pumps will now be pumping together to get the water levels down again. In the event that there is an alarming amount of rain and the two pumps cannot keep up, or power to the sump is compromised, the third pump will kick on either in addition to the first 2 pumps or alone, running on battery power. It really is the best solution when you want to keep your basement dry all the time!

A homeowner in South Kingstown, RI was experiencing random puddles in his basement, especially after heavy rainfalls. This homeowner needed a way to keep his basement dry if he wanted to finish his basement. Our installation crew added a WaterGuard interior drainage system to capture wall seepage. This is the perfect system to ensure no water is creeping in from the wall as it gets collected inside the perimeter of the basement!
