Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This old and outdated basement in Providence, KY had so much potential. Aside from installing a complete waterproofing system, this homeowner opted to upgrade their basement windows as well. The purpose of basement windows is to add appeal to your space by bringing in natural sunlight. If those windows are rusted, covered in debris, or doing little more than affording a view of an old, rusty window well, then they're not doing their job

Our EverLast Windows are made specifically for the basement environment with vinyl, which will hold up for the lifetime of your basement. They're energy-efficient, designed with double-paned, low-E glass, they are much more energy efficient than the single-paned, steel-framed windows that are the industry standard.

In Dawson Springs KY, a basement had water entering in and creating a possible hazard for the family living there. Due to the water and humidity in the basement, mold was starting to spread on the bottom half of the basement walls. If mold is not taken care of, it can affect someone with asthma and other health problems.

To control the water to pump out of the basement rather than in, a sump pump is installed. A water guard is put on the ground on the sides of the walls to allow water that entered the floor to flow toward the sump pump. CleanSpace is arranged on the sides of the basement walls. CleanSpace is a tear-resistant, bright white liner that prevents mold growth on the surface. CleanSpace blocks water vapor from entering the atmosphere and creating mold spores. The basement now has a clean and fresh atmosphere that the family loves!

Homeowner Sandy, from Sturgis KY, didn't use her basement for much. What she did use it for was the storage of miscellaneous and seasonal items. When she would go down there, she always thought it had a musty odor but didn't think of the things that could be growing in the warm and damp climate. Water would also sneak into her basement during storms and showers, occasionally leaving a puddle. Sandy finally decided to get professional help to see what could be done about these issues. 

Healthy Spaces sent a Design Specialist, Bob Roberts, to Sandy's home to meet for her free inspection. During this meeting, Sandy mentioned that she wanted no more water intrusion and wanted to make her basement a healthy and safe place to be. Sandy agreed on installing a WaterGuard system. This piping system collects water at the perimeter of your basement and safely drains it into an unseen sump pump. 

Sandy's basement is now clean and dry so she can use the space for storage, recreational purposes, or to finish for additional living space. 

Brian in Marion, KY had just purchased this home for his daughter and knew the basement needed waterproofed. His realtor had worked with Healthy Spaces before and recommended he give us a call. Our System Design Specialist, Auston, worked with Brian to design a plan that would keep his daughter's basement dry for good. Our team installed a WaterGuard basement waterproofing system, which is a piping system engineered specifically to solve water problems without the worry of clogging soils from under the floor. It intercepts water at the perimeter of the basement and drains it to the TripleSafe Sump Pump System. The TripleSafe sump pump system keeps the basement dry with triple the protection. It comes equipped with 3 pumps and a battery backup in case the power goes out. Now Brian will have peace of mind that his daughter's basement is staying dry permanently. 

In Marion, KY, Healthy Spaces received a call from a homeowner concerned about their basement's state. Whenever it rained outside, water would leak into the basement. Recently, the basement drain was not working which caused the AC water to pool. The homeowner was interested in waterproofing their basement to fix the leaky culprit. 

Once you spot the problem, it's time to take action! The WaterGuard system is placed by the basement team to create a reliable drainage system.  What makes the WaterGuard system so great is the openings at the top. The openings at the top of the drain will drain water from the walls. Next, the SuperSump pump is installed. The SuperSump has a cast iron pump that is quiet, cools well, and lasts longer compared to plastic pumps. Homeowners are relieved to see such an amazing end result!
