Before & After Photos

This Upper Marlboro, MD basement waterproofing project was a unique case because the homeowner was not only dealing with water intrusion in the basement, but also signs of substantial iron ochre deposits. Iron ochre can create a thick, rust-colored buildup that may clog standard drainage systems over time, so this home needed a more specialized basement waterproofing solution. Before the repair, the homeowner was concerned about ongoing water problems, moisture, and the long-term reliability of the basement drainage system.

After completing a full inspection, NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair proposed and installed our WaterGuard IOS system, which is designed to provide a stronger interior drainage solution for challenging basement water issues. We also installed a reliable sump pump system to collect and pump water away from the foundation. Together, the WaterGuard IOS and sump pump system helped address the homeowner’s basement water problems and provide a long-term solution for water intrusion and iron ochre concerns. After the project was complete, the basement was better protected, the drainage system was built for the home’s specific conditions, and the customer had peace of mind knowing their water issues were resolved.

In The Plains, VA, one homeowner was confronted with serious foundation and moisture problems. Their basement showed extensive signs of foundation deterioration, including bowing walls, wall cracks, and persistent moisture accumulation—challenges that threatened both the structural safety and livability of the home. In the "before" photo, you can clearly see the weakening foundation and visible water seepage, highlighting the urgent need for expert intervention.

To solve these issues, our team performed a thorough inspection and designed a customized solution focused on foundation repair and waterproofing in The Plains, VA. We installed the PowerBrace™ System to permanently stabilize and straighten the foundation walls, halting further movement and restoring the home's integrity. For moisture control, we placed the WaterGuard® drainage system along the basement perimeter to capture incoming groundwater and direct it away efficiently, eliminating leaks and reducing humidity. To further protect the space, we completed the repair by installing the CleanSpace® vapor barrier, which creates an effective seal against moisture and prevents musty odors and mold.

The "after" photo reveals a transformed basement—dry, stable, and secure. This comprehensive approach not only provides long-term protection against future foundation and water concerns, but also adds significant value and peace of mind for the homeowner.

A homeowner in Bristow, VA began to notice a significant discrepancy in the levels of their home's flooring. Disturbed by these observations, they sought the expertise of our technical advisor for a comprehensive inspection. The inspection revealed that the steel jacks, previously installed by a different company, were underperforming and not providing the necessary support to the floors.

To address this issue, we began our foundation repair process by preparing the footing in the crawlspace. This involved removing old debris to make way for the installation of a smart jack. The smart jack is designed to provide superior leveling and support for the home. With the new support system in place, the homeowner can now proceed with their desired renovations with confidence, knowing their home's foundation is secure and stable.
