Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This Baltimore MD customer reached out to us because of water intrusion in her basement. Whenever the area would receive a hard rain, she would notice water coming in through the basement wall. Our inspector Jim Logue was sent to the house to evaluate and it was determined the best case of action would be to install our BrightWall Panels and also replace their current sump pump with our SuperSump Pump. 

BrightWall is 100% waterproof and will never discolor or rot. BrightWall will stop water vapor from penetrating through your basement wall all while providing a bright clean, semi finished look. BrightWall is also durable and washable. 

The SuperSump Pump includes a 1/3HP Zoeller cast iron pump with a mechanical float switch, a WaterWatch Alarm System that will sound off if water rises above point where pump should turn on, a SuperLiner that is heavy duty and has 96 holes that allow water to flow in directly from below the floor and it includes an Airtight Lid that keeps moisture from evaporating in to your basement, the lid also keeps items from falling in to the sump pit and keeps out bugs, odors and radon gases.

Customer would get water into the basement when the area would recive a heavy rain, could not pin point the location it would enter, would just see the aftermath and knew they needed the help of Basement Systems USA. 

For this job we tracked down the area where the water was coming in and installed a ThermalDry Wall System which is a Vapor Barrier that has a radiant shield that reflects up to 97% of the heat back into your basement. We also installed Waterguard around the perimeter that will direct water getting in to the basement to the SuperSump Pump we installed as well, to get pumped out of the basement. 

To prevent water from intruding in this Parkville basement, our team installed our WaterGuard drainage system around the basement's perimeter, with our CleanSpace vapor barrier system lining the walls.

Water was getting into the basement through the customers window and just puddling on the floor, we corrected the issue by installing a Super Sump Pump, Waterguard and a Well Duct. The well duct installed will direct any water that gets in, down to the waterguard which then directs the water over to the Super Sump to get pumped out of the basement.

This was a partially finished basement that in the warmer months, would become very humid. Humidity can lead to condensation which can lead to mold. We came out and installed our SaniDry Upright XP Dehumidifier. This dehumidifier eliminates damp, musty odors by drying and filtering the air, all while being tucked away in the corner or closet of your basement.
