Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Before reaching out to Basement Systems USA, the homeowner in Rosedale, MD faced recurring flooding issues in their basement whenever it rained. Water consistently seeped up from the floor, leaving behind puddles and a damp, musty smell that made the basement unusable. Determined to protect their home, they sought help for a permanent solution. After a thorough inspection, Basement Systems USA installed a WaterGuard perimeter drainage system and a CleanSpace wall system. WaterGuard was placed below the basement floor, capturing water as it entered and directing it away from the home’s foundation. The CleanSpace wall system, a durable vapor barrier, was installed on the walls to prevent moisture infiltration and to channel any condensation into the WaterGuard system.

Today, the basement stands dry and transformed, providing a usable, mold-resistant space for storage or future finishing. The homeowner no longer has to worry about water intrusion, thanks to the proactive waterproofing solution Basement Systems USA delivered.

When a family in Pylesville, Maryland, started noticing recurring moisture in their basement, they were concerned about potential damage to their home. They wanted a safe, dry space that they could utilize fully, so they reached out to us at Basement Systems USA for help. Their basement walls showed signs of water infiltration, particularly after heavy rains, and they knew it was time to make a change. The basement walls revealed clear signs of moisture, with small pools of water forming near the foundation during each rainstorm. After assessing the situation, we proposed a comprehensive waterproofing solution that included installing our high-capacity sump pump system, paired with an effective perimeter drainage system. This system would intercept any water before it could collect on the floor.

The transformation was remarkable. With the installation complete, the homeowner could finally enjoy a basement free of dampness and odors. 

This customer was having a few issues with the foundation in the basement, first the customer had Verticle cracks starting from the floor and going up to the top of the wall, to stabilize this wall we used our Carbon Armour Strip system which will strengthen and stabilze the wall over time. The second issue was water seeping in through the porous block foundation everytime it would rain. Our waterproofing solution was to install a Cleanspace Vapor Barrier,a Trench drain at the entrance of the outside door, Waterguard along the basement perimeter and a SuperSump Pump.

This customer had two hairline fractures in the concrete foundation, that when it would rain, would allow water to intrude in the basement. This customer wanted to finish their basement further down the road, but knew before he jumped on such a big costly project, the water intrusion would need to be taken care of. 

We came out and injected the hairline cracks with our Polyurethane Injection which is a repair system that can stop water seepage immediately. We follow up the Polyurethane injection with our FlexiSpan repair system. Flexispan, as it says in the name, is flexible and moves with the wall if the foundation walls happen to move.  This eliminates re cracking and seepage further down the road.

We were called out to this property to tackle the ongoing moisture issue in the basement. We came out and installed a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, Waterguard and a SuperSump Pump.
