Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This homeowner had a working sump pump in his crawlspace. The reason he called DryZone was that the water wasn't all in the area with the sump pump. How can the water get to the pump? The answer is perimeter drainage. DryZone uses a system we call Hydrolink. Our pipes and drains allow water to flow easily to one of our crawlspace sump pumps or even the existing one. This homeowner was so happy with our system that he even upgraded his old sump pump to our SmartSump crawlspace sump pump system.

A lot more often these days homes are being built with a poured concrete floor in the crawlspace. This is commonly called a "rat slab." The idea behind this is to keep the water under the slab and out of the crawlspace. If this worked then we would never have to waterproof a basement either. Water will eventually find its way into any space, the important thing to remember is that DryZone can manage almost any water problem. All hope is not lost, a piping system can be installed in any leaky crawlspace. These photos show how a homeowner tried to divert water by cutting trenches in the concrete floor. These trenches filled with debris and stopped working. DryZone installed our Hydrolink drainage pipe system and it worked great.

The homeowner reached out to us because they noticed that the amount of water in their basement had drastically increased recently. At first it wasn't large amount of water, but it has started to cause flooding and they want it permanently fixed. When our team inspected the area, we noticed water pouring in through the foundation blocks and their current sump pump is having a hard time handling all of the water.

Our solution is simple, fully waterproof their basement using a few of our key waterproofing products. We will be installing WaterGuard, TripleSafe Sump Pump a Sani Dry Sedona, Wall Liner & an Aspen Air Purifier. 

All of these products combined will ensure that their basement will stay dry permanently and will no longer have to worry about water entering their home.

Sump pumps assist in getting standing water out of your home. With a TripleSafe set, this homeowner can be reassured their basement will stay dry!

This homeowner reached out to us because they were wanting to have more natural light in their home, and we had installed windows in their basement in the past. With a quick recommendation on adding another EverLast basement window, we were able to be in and out and complete the job they were looking for.

The reason for the recommendation for the EverLast basement window is because a normal new window alone would not prevent window leakage. This window prevents any water from breaching its seal and keeps water out of the home and basement.
