Before & After Photos

Our team installed an interior drainage system in a basement where water was coming through the floor.

Jenny W. from Birmingham, Michigan contacted HomeSpec after finding water leaking into her basement after a bad storm through the floor/wall joint and cracks in the walls. 

HomeSpec had a solution for her wet basement woes: a waterproofing system. This includes a WaterGuard Drainage System that installs around the perimeter to collect water before it leaks into the basement. This then deposits water into the TripleSafe Sump Pump (with 3 pumps for triple the protection) which funnels water away from the home. 

We also installed our Foamax Basement Wall Panels to hide the unsightly foundation walls, brighten up the space, and drain any water leaks into the drainage system.  

The basement's transformation was astounding and Jenny couldn't be any happier with the results! 

In the first photo we can see a clearly failing sump pump and drainage system, as show from the visible floor cracks and stains across the floor from prolonged water damage.  To rectify this problem, we utilized our French drain system alongside our triple safe sump pump solution. The French drain collects water along the perimeter of the wall and diverts it seamlessly into our revitalized drainage basin/ new sump pump. This particular sump pump solution includes 3 pumps total. A primary pump, a secondary in case the water inflow turns out to be overwhelming for the first, and a battery backup system to remain operational in times of power outages. 

A homeowner in Sterling Heights, MI with a leaking crack in their wall called us out to fill them and give them peace of mind that the walls would no longer be damaged due to the leaking rod holes.

A Sterling Heights, MI homeowner noticed multiple leaks throughout their unfinished basement. While there were no visible cracks, it was clear that water intrusion was still occurring. Their primary concern was the water getting into the basement near the electrical box. They did not want to risk things worsening, so they contacted HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair.

Jeremiah, a project manager for HomeSpec, inspected the basement and devised solutions for the homeowner’s concerns. He discussed his ideas with the homeowner and together they finalized a plan. The homeowner agreed to install a new sump pump which would connect to an interior drainage system using WaterGuard® French drains. Additionally, CleanSpace® wall vapor barrier would be installed to protect the walls and the electrical box. A team led by Brandon completed these projects aside from the plumbing which was done by Rick. The homeowner approved of their work and was happy with the final results.
