Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Before tackling this stubborn basement water issue in Washington, DC, the homeowner grappled with groundwater pooling in a low area—visible in the photo's left side. We assessed and addressed by installing our TripeSafe Sump Pump and WaterGuard systems, supplemented with our advanced CleanSpace and IceGuard technologies for a comprehensive solution. As the right side photo shows, the basement transformed remarkably. Once unwelcoming and damp, it's now dry and inviting, providing true peace of mind and a testament to cutting-edge waterproofing done right.

A homeowner in Washington, DC, was facing a serious issue with water flooding their basement during heavy rains. The problem stemmed from water pooling at the walk-down steps leading from the backyard patio, which would eventually seep into the basement and cause significant damage. Frustrated with the recurring issue, the homeowner reached out to NV Waterproofing and Foundation Repair for a permanent solution.

Our Design Specialist assessed the situation and crafted a customized waterproofing plan to address the problem. We installed a WaterGuard system to channel water away from the foundation and a TrenchDrain at the base of the walk-down steps to capture and redirect water before it could enter the basement. To further protect the space, we added a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to seal out moisture and installed a TripleSafe Sump Pump to efficiently remove water from the home. For added peace of mind, we included an IceGuard system to prevent water backup in the discharge line during freezing conditions.

The results were outstanding. The homeowner now has a fully waterproofed basement that stays dry even during the heaviest rains. They were thrilled with the transformation and relieved to no longer worry about flooding or water damage.
