Before & After Photos

A homeowner in North Mankato was dealing with ongoing water problems in her basement. The signs were hard to ignore. Her walls showed clear evidence of water damage, including staining, dampness, and early deterioration. Concerned about the long-term impact on her home and indoor air quality, she reached out for a professional evaluation. Our System Design Specialist performed a thorough inspection, identifying how water was entering and explaining the root causes in a clear, easy-to-understand way. Together, they reviewed customized solutions to address the issue permanently.

To give her peace of mind and a long-lasting solution, we installed a proven combination of our CleanSpace wall system, WaterGuard interior drainage system, and a powerful SuperSump pump. CleanSpace now acts as a moisture barrier along the walls, directing any water seepage down into the WaterGuard system, which discreetly channels it to the SuperSump for efficient removal. The result is a clean, dry, and healthy basement she can trust for years to come. No more worrying about water damage or musty conditions.

These photos show part of the WaterGuard system that the crew installed. Not pictured, but to the right, is where they also put in a SuperSump pump.

Our Mankato homeowner had an existing sump pump that just couldn't keep up with the amount of water that was attempting to enter his basement space. Oftentimes, generic sump pumps only come with one pumping system that isn't able to remove enough water out of the space fast enough. That's where the TripleSafe Sump Pump comes in, which removes 6,200 gallons per hour!

Mankato homeowners had a major moisture problem throughout their entire basement. From a lack of drainage to remove moisture from the space to mildew-friendly wood paneling that collected and retained moisture, this space needed a complete overhaul in order to be livable and safe for the family. The crew worked to install a full perimeter waterproofing system and CleanSpace wall vapor barrier so that the family can finish the space to their preference knowing that it will stay dry, livable, and safe!

Our previous customer in Mankato contacted Complete Basement Systems to address a cracked foundation wall in their basement.  We had installed the PowerBrace wall system on a different wall years ago and over time hydrostatic pressure builds and causes pressure on walls.
