A property owner in Alexandria that is frequently plagued by flooding issues on the ground floor (sans basement) due to flash floods. Despite having a sump pump and drain system in place, recent flooding has caused some damage, prompting them to seek additional remedies and solutions. the homeowner reached out to NV Waterproofing to assess the situation and propose further measures, taking advantage of the current state of open walls.
Following a comprehensive inspection by our team of technical experts,
The recommended solution involves the installation of a Trench Drain equipped with Trenchlock, a Triple Safe sump pump featuring two supplementary backup systems, and a Water Watch alarm system for optimal protection.
The client had the intention of converting their basement into an Airbnb. However, an inspection revealed water intrusion through the basement walls, which could potentially disrupt their plans. To resolve this issue, we suggested waterproofing the basement from the outside, thus enabling them to proceed with their Airbnb project.
After securing the required permits, our team embarked on the task. They excavated around the property to expose the foundation. The next step involved clearing all dirt and debris from the walls and applying a liquid rubber sealant. They installed a drain board as well as a French drain surrounded by gravel and wrapped in filter fabric.
To provide an extra layer of protection and ensure the basement remains dry under all circumstances, we also installed a triple safe sump pump. Our electrician was brought in to install a lawnscape outlet, which is essential for running the sump pump. We also took the initiative to seal any visible cracks on the foundation.
The final stage involved a thorough cleanup, leaving no trace of the extensive work that had been carried out. This attention to detail resulted in another satisfied customer.
We addressed the homeowner's concerns about recurrent flooding caused by flash floods in the area. To tackle the flooding on the main floor, we installed a reliable and effective solution called the Triple Safe Sump Pump. This sump pump is equipped with three backup systems, ensuring that even in the event of power loss or system failure, the water from the flooding will be efficiently pumped out. Additionally, we installed a trench drain on the exterior of the home to further mitigate the issue. The homeowner was extremely satisfied with the installation and the positive results achieved by the systems implemented.
A homeowner in Alexandria, VA, became concerned about the home's crawl space foundation after reading an inspector's report.
The home, that was built in 1959, was recently purchased. The buyer wanted to make sure the structure would last with a permanent solution.
The crawl space had wooden beams exposed to the elements. This could lead to sagging floors, separating floorboards and other issues inside the home.
The homeowner trusted NV Waterproofing to inspect his crawl space foundation. The design specialist educated the homeowners on the reasons why they were seeing the issues outlined in the inspectors report. The homeowner agreed it would be best to replace the joists in the space and add a steel supplemental beam to reinforce the structure.
NV Waterproofing installation crews stabilized the crawl space by installing the beams and then sealed out any future trouble by adding a vapor barrier.
This customer in Alexandria experienced sagging floors due to high moisture in her crawlspace. To fix the problem, we proposed installing SmartJacks to stabilize the floors and also encapsulate the crawlspace to lower moisture levels preventing further damage elsewhere.
A homeowner in Alexandria had lived there for 30 years. Just 10 years ago, they started to experience water seepage in their basement. After realizing the problem wouldn't fix itself, they decided to call a professional. Now, they have a dry and usable space.
One Alexandria homeowner had been dealing with water seepage in his basement for years. He tried to stop the issue with waterproof paint, towels, and even a drainage system installed by a handyman. Nothing fixed the problem. He finally decided to have a pro come and take a look at the problem. When NV Waterproofing and Foundation Repair arrived, they properly assessed the issue with a thorough inspection. When the inspection was over, the technical advisor walked the customer through everything he found including some bowing walls. After hearing the risks of water seepage and bowing walls, this homeowner decided to have us fix the problem. Since having his system installed, he has not experienced a single drop of water and has had complete peace of mind that his foundation is secure.
A family owned house since it was built, this customer wanted to stop the water seepage as soon as possible. He had noticed the problem about 5 years ago and did not want to see pooling any longer. After having his TripleSafe and WaterGuard systems installed, he has not had a drop of water in his basement.
After dealing with drafty floors in her home for several winters, this customer decided to see what she could have done. She had her two small crawlspaces fully encapsulated and insulated. They noticed the difference immediately and complimented the crew on their thoroughness.
A customer in Alexandria had a cold and gross crawlspace under their home. After doing a little research, they learned that encapsulating a crawlspace could make it a usable area. In just a couple of weeks, they had a clean and safe space.
A customer in Alexandria had lived in her home for 29 years and had several water leaks. After dealing with this issue for 10 years, she was tired of having to clean up water in her basement. She called several contractors to help her, but only NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair were able to logically assess the situation and provide a solution designed specifically to her needs. Now, with her new waterproofing system, she no longer has to keep fans and towels in her basement ready for the next rain. She can finally finish this space and put it to use.
