Before & After Photos

This homeowner had two egress windows installed by another company in their basement, and these windows began to leak shortly after they were installed, (as evidence by the towels all over the floor in the before picture.) The dry wall became damaged and musty, so we suggested that we install a drainage system and we replace the wet drywall with our EverLast moisture proof panels. We first started by carefully cutting the drywall so we could install our drainage system. Our drainage system included of two WellDuct drains in the two egress windows, WaterGuard subfloor drains, and a SuperSump sump pump attached with our UltraSump battery backup system. This system will make sure water doesn't build up near the leaky windows. We then replaced the drywall we took out with our EverLast wall panels. Our EverLast wall panels are made of a vinyl material, and won't grow mold or get damaged from moisture. They also tuck into the drainage system, and they look great next to any type of wall. This job teaches a valuable lesson, if you are going to get egress windows installed, make sure its a company who understands how waterproofing works like us.

This poured foundation basement in Maineville, OH, was dealing with leaks and bowed walls. To address the moisture, we installed our WaterGuard subfloor drainage system around the perimeter, connecting it to a sump pump to channel water out of the basement. The walls were then covered with BrightWall panels, which direct leaks into the drainage system and resist mold thanks to their inorganic material. To stabilize the bowed walls, we installed zinc-coated steel PowerBraces, designed to distribute the wall’s weight evenly across the floor joists and concrete, and in some cases, straighten the walls. The end result is a dry, clean, and structurally sound basement the homeowners can trust.

This sump pump in Maineville, OH, was running constantly, and the homeowner was concerned that if a big storm were to roll through, the sump pump wouldn't be able to keep up. We replaced the sump pump with our TripleSafe system. The TripleSafe contains three pumps inside its liner, including one that is backed by a battery operated system. This battery backup system will ensure that the sump pump will continue to run in the event of a power outage. The TripleSafe also contains an airtight lid, an airtight floor drain, and an alarm system. The homeowner was relieved to know their new sump pump will be able to handle the worst of rainfalls. They also noted that the new sump pump is much more quiet. 

This basement in Milford, OH, had a very musty smell, which led the homeowners to give us a call to locate the cause of the must. Our Inspector, Steve, used his nose and his wits to find the spot in the drywall that was leaking bad. After Steve opened up the drywall, he found mold, rot, and worst of all, signs of bowing wall movement. Steve suggested we repair this wall by tearing out the moldy drywall and studs, waterproof the wall with our WaterGuard subfloor drains, stabilize the wall with our PowerBrace steel beam system, and refinish the look with our moisture proof BriteWall panels! This foundation is now dry, safe, and secured. Click here to read what the customer had to say about our crew.

This home had an old sump pump that needed replacing. We replaced it with a SuperSump Plus sump pump with an UltraSump 4 battery backup.
