Before & After Photos

For decades, a Mankato homeowner had been fighting with water entering his basement whenever heavy rains or snowmelt occurred. The home, built in 1973, had served his family well, but over the years, the basement became increasingly difficult to manage. Water intrusion, moisture concerns, and bowing foundation walls made the space unreliable and created ongoing stress every time the weather forecast called for rain.

After living with the problem for years and realizing it wasn't going away on its own, he decided it was time for a permanent solution.

Our team designed a complete basement repair and waterproofing system to address every concern. We installed our WaterGuard drainage system to capture water before it reached the basement floor, along with a SuperSump pump system to safely discharge water away from the home. To help control moisture and improve the overall basement environment, we installed CleanSpace wall covering throughout the affected areas.

Because sections of the foundation walls were showing signs of inward movement, we also installed PowerBrace wall stabilization beams to permanently reinforce and stabilize the foundation.

Today, the homeowner has peace of mind knowing his basement is protected from water intrusion and his foundation is secure. After decades of dealing with the same frustrating problems, he can finally enjoy a dry, healthier basement backed by reliable solutions designed to last.

For years, this Mankato homeowner dealt with a basement that seemed to have every problem at once. Water entered through the floor-to-wall joint during heavy rains and spring snowmelt; the foundation walls began to bow inward, and high humidity made the space feel damp year-round. She knew the issues weren't going away and wanted a permanent solution that would protect her home and foundation.

Our team designed a complete basement restoration system to address every concern. We installed WaterGuard perimeter drainage, CleanSpace wall protection, a TripleSafe sump pump system, PowerBrace wall stabilization system, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. In just a few days, we transformed the basement from a source of constant worry into a dry, stable, and healthier space. Now, no matter the weather outside, this homeowner can count on a basement that's protected from water, moisture, and foundation movement.

A Mankato homeowner had a basement that showed signs of long-term water issues. Moisture staining was visible along the block wall and floor joint, and the foundation wall had developed horizontal cracking from years of pressure from the surrounding soil. The unfinished basement was damp, uninviting, and at risk for continued water problems every time heavy rain or snowmelt increased the groundwater around the home.

Wanting a permanent solution instead of temporary fixes, the homeowner contacted our team for a professional evaluation.

To permanently protect the basement, we installed a complete waterproofing system, including WaterGuard, and a PowerBrace foundation stabilization system. The walls were covered with CleanSpace wall vapor barrier to direct any wall moisture into the drainage system, while a perimeter waterproofing system was installed below the floor to collect and remove water before it could reach the basement. To address the cracked foundation wall, we also installed wall support beams to help stabilize the structure and provide long-term peace of mind.

Today, the basement is cleaner, brighter, and protected against future water intrusion. Most importantly, the homeowner can feel confident knowing their basement will stay dry and their foundation is supported for years to come.

When a homeowner in Mankato, MN began experiencing water intrusion around the perimeter of their basement, they knew it was time to find a permanent solution. As our specialist evaluated the space, it became clear that water wasn't the only concern. The foundation walls had also begun to bow due to years of pressure from the surrounding soil.

The homeowner wanted to protect their investment and prevent the problems from getting worse. Our team developed a solution that would address both the water issues and the structural concerns at the same time.

In just a couple of days, we installed a full perimeter WaterGuard drainage system to collect the water before it reaches the basement floor. We also covered the foundation walls with our CleanSpace wall system, creating a clean, bright appearance while directing any moisture into the drainage system. To stabilize the bowing walls, we installed the PowerBrace wall repair system, providing the support needed to prevent further movement and help restore the integrity of the foundation.

By the time the project was complete, the homeowner had a dry, secure basement they could count on.

These homeowners called us to discuss their wet basement. They had water throughout the basement and had removed the finishings. They wanted us to waterproof before they refinished the space. In this small home, the basement was used as extra living space. It was necessary to keep it safe and dry.

After discussing the situation and having our Design Specialist Ron take a look, they decided on a full perimeter WaterGuard System, a SuperSump sump pump, a new discharge system and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier.

We can now guarantee their space will be dry!
