Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A basement in Evansville, IN, needed a little love. The window located on the top middle section of one of the basement walls needed to be replaced and sealed correctly. Since the window was not sealed correctly, it was allowing moisture to enter the basement. Over time, moisture in the basement may cause mold spores to spread, leaving health at risk. Prolonged mold exposure can cause asthma. The home homeowners were eager to replace the window!

The EverLast window was installed to replace the old window. The EverLast window is energy efficient with all-vinyl windows that are double-pane glass. This window makes it perfect for a damp environment that is close to the ground. Once the window was replaced, it gave the space a sense of redemption. It thrilled the homeowners that they were able to look through their basement windows without seeing rust.

Mold remediation and total basement finishing were requested from a couple in Evansville, IN. The spouse wanted to convert the basement into an all-black room for gaming, but the mold was an issue they needed to resolve.  Mold is a living organism that breathes air, consumes food, and requires water to survive. When their food source is killed off, along with creating a dry air flow, then mold will not be able to survive. The couple was ready to remove any mold and start the process of making their dream gaming room.
Mold remediation was performed on all walls of the basement. To accomplish the black gaming room, Basement To Beautiful panels would coincidentally match that wish. Basement To Beautiful panels are waterproof, insulated walls that will not allow mold to grow on the walls. These panels eliminate conventional stud framing and fiberglass insulation. Once the basement was completed, the couple was ecstatic that their unique look turned out great!

When there is water outside of a basement window, it will leak into the basement. This was becoming an issue for a homeowner in Owensboro, KY. There are physical signs to look out for if the window of a basement is suspected to be leaking. Signs for water damage include water, rusted or drafty windows, or if the window wells are rusty or open. These issues happen because the gutters overflow into the window well: the ground around the window is pitched toward the house, or the downspout is dumping lots of water near the window. There were solutions to this problem that the homeowner was ready to solve. 

A drain was installed from the window well to the perimeter drainage system around the basement that leads to the sump pump. A drain hole is drilled through the basement wall just under the windowsill. EverLast window was installed. The window is energy-efficient and all-vinyl, making it perfect for the basement, Once the new EverLast window is put in, it will effectively keep water out of the basement, leaving the homeowner satisfied! 

A family located in Mount Vernon, IN, wanted to transform their unfinished basement, into a usable and comfortable place to store items and hang out in. The floor of the basement would be wet and cold, making it unpleasant for the homeowners to walk on. Water vapor passing through your porous concrete floor in a slow, invisible, unending stream from the damp earth below is enough to cause buckling and will cause moisture to get trapped under your floor, making it smell moldy from the rotting flooring underneath. There is a solution to this! 

The flooring that was used is made from inorganic materials and was laid and connected throughout the basement floor. The inorganic flooring is beneficial when water vapor is present, and affects the concrete floor underneath. Instead of stepping on damp or cold concrete floors, the family would be walking on dry flooring. The gray flooring paired nicely with the home, and the family was pleasantly satisfied with the result! 

In Fort Branch, IN, a homeowner had a wish to finish their basement to have more room to roam around in. The basement needed to be waterproofed, so homeowners reached out to us in hopes that we could make that happen. It’s exciting to be able to restore a part of your home and to allow us to be a part of it! Any homeowner with a basement will breathe basement air. Whatever is in your basement air is in your home and affects you, whether you spend much time in the basement or not. If there is high humidity downstairs, then there is high humidity upstairs.  If there is mold in the basement, there are mold spores upstairs.

The walls of the basement needed to be waterproofed, so the CleanSpace Wall System was set in place. Covering your basement walls with the CleanSpace wall system economically brightens your house. The homeowners were planning on adding their wall paneling to the bottom halves of the basement walls. A Waterguard system was installed alongside the basement walls to ensure that if any water were entering in, then it would be directed to the TripleSafe sump pump that was put in. Once the basement waterproofing was finished, the room’s atmosphere felt tranquil and the homeowners were pleased.
