The Basement Transformer Before & After Photos

A basement in Middletown, NY had walls that were leaking and letting water into the basement as a result. To put an end to this problem, we installed our interior drainage system known as the WaterGuard System. It is designed to collect any water that seeps through your basement walls using its built-in wall flange that extends up the wall at 3/8”. This system gets installed just below the floor slab and on top of the foundation footing to keep it from getting clogged with dirt or debris. Our team also restored the concrete slab once the WaterGuard System was completely installed. Once the job was done, this homeowner was left with a permanent solution for their leaky basement walls.

This homeowner's garage was letting water into their basement. Our team knew the perfect solution. We installed our TrenchDrain grated drainage pipe system right along the edge of their garage doors. The TrenchDrain looks just like a basement drainage pipe except it has a grated opening on the top. Any water that passes through the garage door and over this grate is then collected and redirected to the sump pump system. The lid is also removable, so if any dirt or leaves were to get inside and clog the system, it could easily be taken care of. The grate is also flush with or inserted just below the floor, so there is no possibility of a tripping hazard. 

This is truly the best solution when water is coming in through an entryway such as a garage door. After this was installed, this homeowner no longer had to worry about any water leaking into their basement or coming in through the garage. 

A homeowner located in Warwick, NY was having water issues inside of their basement. A little bit of water would end up in front portion of the basement, but most of the water was coming in through the back portion of the basement. They contacted our team to see how we could help solve this problem. Upon conducting an inspection of the basement, our specialist determined that our DryTrak System paired with our BrightWall Panels needed to be installed.

The DryTrak System is specifically designed for monolithic foundations where the foundation and footing are poured as a single piece, such as the one found in this home. This system is installed over the top of the floor, using an epoxy, so that the need for jackhammering through a thick concrete slab is eliminated. The slight opening at the top of DryTrak allows the water leaking through the walls to be collected and drained into your sump pump system.

The BrightWall Panels were added behind the DryTrak System to prevent water from pouring over the top, and to help direct water seeping through the walls into the system. BrightWall is completely waterproof and creates a vapor barrier on your walls which blocks out water vapor and humidity.

Once these products were installed, this homeowner no longer had to worry about water intrusion.

The before photo captures the origin of the discomfort, an unsealed and vulnerable space prone to moisture — A common scenario for many homes. Our team at The Basement Transformer sprang into action, executing a remarkable transformation as vividly illustrated in the resultant after photo.
