Before and After
-
Before
After
This basement was getting wet during storms which made the drywall and carpet moldy. Drywall and carpet are made of organic materials so they easily get destroyed by water and mold damage. The smell was noticeable and something had to be done.
Basement Systems USA, Inc. went in and first removed the carpet and the bottom of the moldy drywall and did some mold remediation. The next step was to install the WaterGuard drainage system around the perimeter so that the basement would no longer leak. The WaterGuard was connected to one of our SuperSump Systems which include a battery back-up pump so that the water can be pumped out even during power failures.
Once the basement is mold free and no longer in danger from water seepage, we could start putting things back together. But we would never use organic materials like drywall or carpet to repair the basement. A special waterproof and inorganic wallboard called EverlastWall was used to make the basement look beautiful again. EverlastWall is made of nonorganic material and is guaranteed for 50 years against water and mold damage. We also used a special waterproof wood look flooring so that there would be no danger of water damage.
The result is easy to see. The basement is not only dry and looks amazing, it has been repaired with the right building materials so that the is no chance of water or mold damage in the future. Another job done right.

This old, cold, and leaking window needed to be replaced with a new high efficient vynel window. We also installed a WellDuct window well drain in the window well outside. This drian is connected into the interior Waterguard systems to prevent window well flooding. We also wanted to prevent vapour transmision, so the ThermalWall vapor barrier was installed. Thermal Wall also reflects up to 97% of the heat back into the basement.

These are pictures of a typical city row home basement entry. The stairwells often flood because the drain is not big enough or not connected properly for an outlet. By installing proper drainage and a large TrenchDrain, the water can now be easily managed.

This basement had a bowing wall. We installed the PowerBarce system which has the ability to be torqued so that there is reverse pressure on the bowing wall. We also installed the ThermalWall vapor barrier.

This job required that we remove the bottom of the moldy drywall so that a waterproofing system could be installed. We also installed a TripleSafe sump system that can pump over 6000 gallons of water and has a battery back-up pumping system. We never use drywall to restore the wall because it is too vulnerable to mold and water damage. Basement Systems only uses in-organic TBF EverLast wall that comes with a 50 year guarantee against water or mold damage.

Basement water problems are as old as the structures themselves. Water will leak into a basement through any opening it can, including your walls, floors, and the joints between them. Water can even pass through the concrete itself -- which is one reason why basements are notoriously damp, humid spaces.
Other companies might try to sell you on inferior basement waterproofing solutions. Our products have been developed, patented, and perfected by Basement Systems®, Inc. -- the world's largest network of basement waterproofing contractors.
Whether you live in Philadelphia, Baltimore, Ellicott City, Wilmington, Upper Darby, Parkville or Lancaster, our basement experts will show you how we can customize your waterproofing solution to keep the basement dry all the time!
