Before & After Photos

The homeowner had a horizontal crack in their basement wall. They thought nothing of it until they noticed that the crack was causing their wall to bow and was allowing water to seep in. Horizontal cracks in your wall are the first sign of a wall that is beginning to bow. The cracks usually start out small and begin to increase in width over time as the soil continues to put pressure on the wall. 

To combat this problem our professional team installed the PowerBrace system. The system is designed to support basement walls and allow for potential straightening over time. The PowerBrace system is coated with zinc making the entire system resistant to corrosion, reduces abrasion and wear, and creates a non-toxic surface. The beam systems also have a clean-cut appearance making your basement look nice and clean. 

The wall is stabilized and is now well on its way to straightening up! 

The sump pump is what does all the work by pumping all that unwanted water that comes in out of your basement. It only makes sense that you have one that works properly so you don't end up with a flooded basement. We have many options for you to choose from depending on the needs of your basement and what you feel most comfortable with.

The sump pump pictured is our TripleSafe Sump Pump. It is the king/queen of all the pumps. Like the name implies there is 3 pumps in one liner. The first pump is what does most of the work to effectively pump water out of your basement. The second pump is more of a back up and kicks on if the water gets too high and the first one cannot keep up. The third pump is battery operated in the event that the power were to go out. All of our pumps also come with an airtight lid so the water that goes in doesn't end up evaporating right back into your basement.

Charles has a finished basement that has been colder than normal lately, so he decided to check for problems. Eventually, he called us for a free quote. Our team determined that it was his basement window that was giving him air flow issues. We recommended an Egress Window installation and Charles agreed. Now he doesn't have to fear going in his chilly basement.

We received a call from a homeowner in Alto, MI that was having problems with her basement walls. She wanted our professional help, so we drove to her property and installed Flexispan technology. FlexiSpan is a crack sealer for concrete that is used often times on basement walls. First, a dry well is made in the floor below the crack on the wall. Then, the crack in the wall is ready for a FlexiSpan seal. FlexiSpan contains three layers, the first is a urethane based sealant, followed by a polyurethane ether foam strip, finished off with a polyurethane sealant. Any water drains into the dry well below the FlexiSpan seal. Now this homeowner won't have to worry about wet basement walls ever again.

Chris and Monica have some water issues in the north side of the basement. The area has been leaking for a couple years now and they just want to be able to have a dry space. We installed the WaterGuard system which is made up of a French drain that is installed under the floor. It is kept out of the "mud zone" by being installed under the floor but above the foundation. The WaterGuard collects water that enters the basement and sends it to the sump pump to be expelled outside of the home.
