Before & After Photos

In Great Falls, VA, a homeowner envisioned transforming their basement into a cozy spare bedroom. The key to this transformation was the installation of an egress window, essential not only for safety as an emergency exit but also to flood the space with natural light. The homeowner turned to NV Waterproofing and Foundation Repair to bring this vision to life.

Understanding the importance of a dry and secure environment, NV Waterproofing recommended integrating a WellDuct Drainage system alongside the egress window installation. This system was crucial in preventing potential water intrusion, safeguarding the new bedroom from dampness and flooding.

The NV Waterproofing team tackled the project with precision, cutting through the foundation to fit the egress window perfectly while ensuring the structural integrity of the home. The WellDuct system was skillfully installed to divert water away from the basement, ensuring a dry and comfortable living space.

Thanks to NV Waterproofing and Foundation Repair's expertise and professionalism, the homeowner's basement was successfully transformed into a bright and inviting spare bedroom, complete with a safe escape route and reliable water protection. The project not only fulfilled the homeowner's needs but also added significant value and utility to their home.

Customer was worried about the kitchen floor above the basement because it was bowing. NV solved the problem by installing a new floor joist.

The customer was keen on converting the below-grade "bonus room" into an official bedroom. To achieve this, our technical advisor conducted a detailed inspection of the property and outlined a strategy for the transformation. The plan required the homeowner to dismantle the deck covering the current window and replace it with an egress window to ensure a safe exit for occupants. Additionally, the customer chose to install a sunhouse cover to maximize natural light in the basement space. The customer was extremely satisfied with the outcome and is now able to appreciate the basement even more.
