Before & After Photos

The effects of external hydrostatic pressure had taken a toll on this basement in Piqua, OH. All four of the block walls in this basement all looked like the attached before photo. Wet puddles, bowing wall cracks, stains, and musty smells were all effects from massive amounts of built up water in the soil around the foundation. The existing exterior waterproofing system had failed and the loose soil around the home, (from when the soil was first excavated to make room for the home) were two reasons why the water table was so high. We repaired all four walls in the basement by installing carefully designed PowerBraces, which stabilized the foundation. We then waterproofed with our patented interior-perimeter system with our WaterGuard subfloor drains and our TripleSafe sump pump. The homeowner was so impressed with the job, they left us a nice review on our Google Profile: "Still waiting on our hats..."

This homeowner was fed up with their musty basement, so they gave us a call to help them achieve a full protected dry basement. When installing our full interior perimeter drainage system, we also installed a vapor barrier system over the walls. Our CleanSpace moisture barrier shares many components of a pool liner; It is super durable, waterproof, clean, and flexible. All of these components allow the walls to help channel water to the subfloor system, keep musty smells out, and look super clean.

In just two days of work, our crew was able to completely transform this wet, leaky, rotted basement into a beautiful, dry, clean space! We are very grateful to have the best crews and materials in town, because it makes for some pretty awesome transformations and ecstatic homeowners!

When we installed a full perimeter interior waterproofing system for this wet basement in Dayton, Ohio, we used our TripleSafe for the sump pump system. The TripleSafe is our most secure pump system, as it comes with three different pumps, including a battery backed one. If the primary pump becomes overwhelmed, then the second pump will kick on. If the second pump becomes overwhelmed, then the third pump will help kick in. If the power goes out in the home, then the battery backup system will kick on. There's no better pump system than the TripleSafe!

In the after picture seen here, you can see two of our best products working in tandem to keep this basement dry. The white CleanSpace walls and our WaterGuard subfloor drains, (concealed beneath the fresh concrete) work together to drain water that may infiltrate from the floor and up above on the walls. These two systems are tied together and work as one to help lead the water down towards the sump pump system we also installed. Our CleanSpace walls also help conceal stained walls and must!
