Have you noticed signs of water damage in your basement? Whether you're buying or selling a home or just want to fix the home you love, Basement Systems has the solution.
We have set the industry standard with long-term basement waterproofing solutions that are proven effective in keeping basements dry. Whether it's leaks, flooding, humidity, or musty smells, our products and methods can solve all kinds of wet basement problems to give you a basement that's dry and healthy.
If you've experienced leaking walls or seepage through the floors or cracks in your home's foundation, you need a waterproofing system that's going to keep your basement dry, all the time.
The Leading Choice for a Dry Basement
The ultimate dry basement system: WaterGuard drainage system, TripleSafe sump pump, and SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier.
Basement Systems offers a complete waterproofing system to deliver the ultimate dry basement solution.
Here's how we fix wet basements:
- Remove Water
The WaterGuard® interior perimeter drainage system is a non-clogging alternative to a traditional French drain system, which sits in the soil and often clogs.
WaterGuard® works together with our TripleSafe™ sump pump to quickly and effectively remove water that has made its way inside your home.
The result is a basement that's clean and dry, so you can use the space for storage, entertaining, and more.
- Dry & Filter the Air
To keep your basement dry all the time, we recommend adding an energy efficient, high-performance SaniDry™ dehumidifier and air filtration system.
Our SaniDry Sedona™ and SaniDry XP systems lower the humidity in your basement to reduce allergens and mold and eliminate dampness and musty odors.
- Finish the Basement
Looking to transform your concrete floor and walls into a beautiful, finished basement space you'll love?
We offer moisture-resistant basement wall panels, flooring, and ceiling tiles and professional installation that make basement finishing easy.

Basement Waterpoofing & Air Sealing
Does this look familiar? A nasty, wet basement with damaged walls, cracked floors, and drafty windows can lead to home health issues, lowered energy efficiency, mold growth, structural issues, and more. Luckily, the certified basement specialists at Basement Systems, Inc. have the solutions to create a dry and secure below-grade space.
Floor crack repair: By removing damaged flooring and fixing basement floor cracks, not only does the basement look better, but it is more secure. Water can seep through porous concrete, which will worsen floor cracks and lead to more water damage. By backfilling cracked basement floors with stone and covering it with fresh concrete, we can prevent future leaks and transform the basement floor slab.
Basement wall panels: Our BrightWall® Rigid Basement Wall System is a completely waterproof plastic paneling that provides durable, washable, and mold-proof protection. BrightWall® keeps humidity and moisture from passing through basement walls – it also installs quickly, in just one to two days.
Replacement egress windows: Outdated windows can leave your basement vulnerable to air leaks and water infiltration. But our EverLast™ replacement basement windows are properly fitted to prevent water leaks and to create an airtight seal. Our replacement windows also improve energy-efficiency, add natural light to your below-grade space, and can be adapted to suit your basement's needs.

Basement Drainage Solutions
Is your basement protected against flooding, water seepage, and leaks? Luckily, our TripleSafe™ sump pump has a three-pump system that automatically adjusts to meet drainage needs. Given its battery-powered composition, the TripleSafe™ will continue to protect against flooding during power outages. Also, its airtight, removable lid reduces noise and makes it easy to service.
By adding the UltraSump® battery backup sump pump system, you can have even more basement flood protection, as the system automatically switches on when the primary pump fails. The UltraSump® removes 12,000 gallons per hour on a fully-charged battery.
With the TripleSafe™ sump pump system and the UltraSump® battery backup sump pump, the basement specialists at Basement Systems, Inc. can assure the basement stays dry and secure, even during extreme weather conditions.
Our BrightWall® rigid, plastic wall paneling is compatible with our sump pumps, as any water seepage will be directed to your drainage system. BrightWall® is completely waterproof, durable, and mold-resistant. It also keeps humidity and water vapor from entering the basement.
