Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Before the transformation, this Tuxedo Park basement was a victim of recurring water intrusion, a challenge many homeowners face. Notice in the before photo the visible signs of moisture – a problem that not only threatens the structure of the home but the health of its inhabitants. Turning the tide on water damage, we stepped in with our reliable solution. As showcased in the after photo, we installed our proven trio: CleanSpace, to provide a waterproof barrier; IceGuard, to prevent backups caused by frozen discharge lines; and FlexiSpan, for a sealed and secure foundation. Gone are the days of water worry, replaced now with peace and protection. This transformation is a testament to our commitment to not just meet, but exceed, your expectations with a remarkably reliable and lasting solution to your home's needs.

This basement needed a brand new sump pump to ensure it was waterproofed correctly. Our sump pumps are one of our top performing products. The TripleSafe sump pump pictured in the after photo, features two main pumps and a battery powered backup pump in case you lose power. It helps to protect your basement from any flooding and helps to avoid any expensive damage from happening to your property. Our sump pumps have been tested under the harshest conditions and continue to withstand the test of time. Give us a call today for a free estimate if you’re in need of a sump pump for your basement.

A homeowner in Wallkill, NY wanted to make sure their basement stayed dry. Lots of circumstances can arise that make that difficult, but that’s where our products shine. To give this homeowner a peaceful state of mind, our crew installed the IceGuard Discharge Line System. This special addition to your discharge line helps to ensure that water will still be pumped out of your basement even when the temperatures drop. It is installed outside of the home and projects water away from your foundation, in the event your sump pump discharge line freezes or clogs. 

The IceGuard gives the water a secondary route to escape through the slotted openings in the drainpipe. This added layer of protection against flooding assured this homeowner that their basement would stay dry no matter what. 

This homeowner was experiencing water seeping in from their front lawn and into their basement. The culprit? The garage door. They already had an old drain installed in front of the garage door, but it just wasn’t doing its job properly on its own. A drain like this being in front of the garage door is not an ideal scenario either, as it can freeze over during the colder months. That’s when The Basement Transformer stepped in to fix this problem. We made sure to install our TrenchDrain Grated Drainage Pipe System on the inside of the garage door that leads to the basement, drastically decreasing the possibility of it freezing in the wintertime. The grated opening fits nice & snug on top of the pipe and collects any water that passes over it. That water then gets directed straight into your sump pump system. 

This system is also designed to pair with our TrenchLock Drain Inserts, which keep harmful radon gases found in the ground out of your home. We made sure to install these as well, so that water would still be drained properly without having to worry about the toxic air making its way into the basement. 

After installing these products, the homeowner knew their front lawn could no longer contribute to making the basement floor wet! 

The walls in this homeowner’s basement were deteriorating in appearance and falling apart because of the water that was seeping through the concrete blocks. Efflorescence, which is white and foamy in appearance, was growing all over the walls, showing visible signs of water damage. The key to keeping the moisture out of this basement was using our Foamax walls. Our team installed them for this homeowner, helping to waterproof the walls and improve their overall appearance. The Foamax walls are made from polyisocyanurate foam, which insulates the basement, making it warmer and drier! They are designed with a white foil finish that brings more light into a dark basement, as well as a vapor barrier which controls the humidity levels in the basement. The before and after photos below prove just how much this product truly transformed this basement into something new!
