This customer called us with a flooded basement. They needed help right away. Our Design Specialist went out and found about a foot of standing water throughout their basement. He recommended a full perimeter WaterGuard System, a CleanSpace Wall System, a top of the line sump pump and discharge line. We got her basement dry, safe, and usable for her.
Fairfax homeowners had moisture entering their basement through their walls and as a result, strong signs of mold and mildew began to appear. Not only was this a hassle, but it was a safety risk to their family. Crew Leader Ben Heldt and his team worked to install a wall vapor barrier and waterproofing system to completely solve the problem. Now, the homeowners can rest assured that their home will stay dry and safe for years to come!
Windom, Minnesota homeowners had a crawl space that was beyond just being an eyesore; it was a potential health hazard. Crawl spaces are often neglected spaces in homes, and - if left unaddressed - are commonly subject to moisture, mold, and air quality issues. Luckily, these homeowners worked with their System Design Specialist to encapsulate the space, as well as install a sump pump and dehumidifier. Now, they can rest assured that their home is safe for their family!
These homeowners in Hector, MN called us with some water intrusion and bowing walls in their basement. When walls are bowing in, it is usually due to hydrostatic pressure from too much water building up against the outside of the walls, or the soil that is around your property swells and exerts pressure that forces the foundation wall inward. Bowed or leaning walls can cause very serious structural damage if not corrected.
After discussing the options available with the homeowners, it was decided we would install our PowerBrace Wall Support System to permanently stabilize the walls. These beams are custom-fit to your basement height and tightly secured against the wall with brackets that are anchored to the basement floor below and first-floor framing above. The braces are tightened over time, slowly pushing the wall back to the correct positition.
We also installed an UltraSump3, WaterGuard drain system and discharge with IceGuard. This will ensure a dry, safe basement for these homeowners.
Here's a home that had a completely finished basement but ended up with water. These photos show what it looked like after the family ripped up the carpet. We installed the WaterGuard system to prevent this from happening again. Once the concrete finishes drying, they can put the drywall back to the floor and it will be as if their water problem never happened!
