Before & After Photos

This Jackson home had water in the basement when it rained. The homeowner knew where the water had gotten in since water pooled in the same place every time it rained. We installed the WaterGuard which is a French drain system that goes around the perimeter of the basement. It is installed under the floor but above the foundation so it doesn't clog, it collects water that seeps into the space, and it sends the water out of the home. The concrete is restored after installation so you don't have to worry about an unsightly drain in your basement! 

Any diversions from a flat surface in your yard - hills, valleys, slants - can cause headaches when it comes to water. Our customer called because the slant to their driveway was helping water drain toward the house instead of away - sometimes it seemed to be coming right from the floor.

By installing TrenchDrain in the driveway, water can drain through the grated opening and divert to an outlet in the yard, far away from the house.

Our customer called after buying a house and realizing that the existing sump pump was not up to snuff. We replaced it with a TripleSafe sump pump and installed IceGuard on the discharge lines to protect against freezing lines next winter.

This basement would leak down the walls after heavy rains and onto the tile floor. As you can see in the before photo, the wood panels had a bit of water damage towards the bottom of them. To help repair the problem, the crew installed a WaterGuard perimeter drainage system at the foot of the walls. They cut the bottom portions of the walls to remove the stains. Before the perimeter system could be installed, the tile and floor needed to be excavated to make room for the pipes. The after photo shows where fresh concrete was poured to cover the system and the SuperSump system that will pump out any water in the WaterGuard. With those two systems, there will be no more leaks in this basement.

Let's be real no one ever thinks they're house is going to catch fire, or flood, or have something tragic happen. BUT, it does happen all the time. An egress window is a great idea to have in your basement because it allows a second way out in case of an emergency. The building code now also requires that every new home have two exits. 

We installed this egress window in this family's partially finished basement so they can have peace of mind that everyone is safe and can escape if needed.
