Before & After Photos

In Livonia, MI, a homeowner saw that was was leaking in a corner of their unfinished basement. After living in the home for 20 years, they were considering selling in the future. Regardless if they stayed or sold, they knew that this water leak needed to be addressed. After some looking around, the homeowner found HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair. HomeSpec sent their senior project manager, Erik, to do an inspection.

After some careful thought, Erik suggested an interior drainage system using WaterGuard® and connecting it to discharge to the storm cleanout. This system would effectively catch any water from a poured foundation such as this one and dispel it, keeping the basement dry. The homeowner liked this plan and moved forward with the repairs. HomeSpec sent their plumber, Rick, and foreman, Josh, to lead the work. The homeowner was satisfied with the work and service from HomeSpec and left a positive review!

A home in Livonia, MI was experiencing leaks throughout their basement, which included the bathroom. The homeowners were irritated with the constant water intrusion and did not want to worry about these issues any longer. This was especially concerning because their basement was finished with drywall and epoxy floors. They moved into the home in 1987 and had no intentions of moving in the future so it was important to them to take care of the house. They reached out to HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair for a free inspection.

A project manager, Jeremiah, went out to the home and took a look both inside and outside. It was important for him to have a full understanding of the situation so he could provide an accurate repair plan. Jeremiah proposed installing waterproofing products to capture the water and remove it from the home. This would be done using a WaterGuard® interior drainage system that connects to a TripleSafe™ Sump Pump. He also suggested installing the waterproof basement finishing products Everlast Wall Restoration System and ThermalDry® Floor Tiles to maintain the finished aesthetic. The homeowners approved of this plan and chose the sandstone color option for the tiles. Due to the scope of the work multiple crews were required to install everything in a timely manner. The crews were led by Jon D. and Jon L. with additional help from Brian and Rick. After the project was completed the homeowners were happy with the results both in terms of efficiency and appearance.

A homeowner in Grosse Pointe Farms, MI had worked with HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair in the past to fix a crack in the basement wall. Unfortunately, the basement had flooded more than once. While the house was being inspected by one of HomeSpec’s senior project managers, Ted, he also suggested new flooring. The homeowner contemplated this option at the time of the crack repair but decided to tackle one issue at a time. A couple of months later, the homeowner reached out to HomeSpec again, this time prepared to install new flooring.

The flooring HomeSpec offers is not your average hardwood or tile flooring. ThermalDry® Basement Floor Tiles are made of waterproof materials that are designed to stay warm and comfortable while also staying dry and mold-free. This homeowner chose the carpet version in the color Mocha. They witnessed the basement transform as Jim and his team installed carpet tiles. They were happy with the finished product and could rest easy knowing the floors would never buckle or peel off of the floor.

This home in Grosse Pointe Woods had previously been waterproofed by another company, but they did not have a sump pump installed. As time went on, the homeowner noticed water leaking into the basement again and knew that HomeSpec was the best option to fix everything. HomeSpec’s inspector, Erik, advised that a sump pump as well as a sump pump discharge system would address all of the homeowner’s concerns.

Once approved, HomeSpec’s crew, led by foreman Vernon, came out to the house to install the sump pump and other waterproofing materials. In this case, they used a TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System. It now sits comfortably out of the way in one corner of the basement.

A Grosse Pointe Woods homeowner was aware that their basement had been waterproofed in the past but was unaware that the company they used had not fixed all of the problems. It wasn’t until the basement began leaking water again that this homeowner learned they needed help once again. This time, they called HomeSpec.

HomeSpec had one of their inspectors, Erik, go out to the house to investigate. The homeowner was informed that the basement did not have a sump pump, like the TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System, or a sump pump drainage system. Erik recommended these solutions, as well as other waterproofing options, and the homeowner approved them. A crew, led by foreman Vernon, later came out to the home for installation. The homeowner now has a dry basement and an aesthetically pleasing yard!
