The ongoing moisture issues not only risked damage to stored belongings but also posed potential long-term concerns about mold growth, air quality, and the overall health of their living environment.
Recognizing the urgency of the situation, the homeowner knew they needed professional expertise to address this complex waterproofing challenge.

Solution
The homeowner contacted NV Waterproofing and Foundation Repair, where our responsive Customer Care Specialist immediately understood the gravity of the situation and swiftly scheduled a thorough home inspection appointment. Our skilled System Design Specialist conducted a comprehensive evaluation of the basement, carefully identifying the root causes of water leakage as well as warning signs that the basement walls needed additional support to prevent further structural issues.
Based on our detailed assessment, we recommended a comprehensive solution for total basement protection. The installation began with our WaterGuard system—a discreet yet powerful sub-floor drainage solution installed along the basement's interior perimeter. This advanced system expertly channels wall and floor seepage away from the basement before moisture can cause damage.
In conjunction with addressing the water intrusion, we reinforced the basement walls using Carbon Armor. Carbon Armor is a high-strength carbon fiber system designed specifically to stabilize and strengthen basement walls. Its flexible strips adhere tightly to the walls, providing immediate support and preventing bowing, cracking, or further structural damage—offering a long-term solution without invasive reconstruction.
To combat humidity and mold, we installed the CleanSpace encapsulation liner throughout the space, creating a moisture barrier that works in harmony with the WaterGuard system. Finally, we bolstered the home's defense with the TripleSafe Sump Pump, featuring three levels of pump protection to ensure reliable performance even during power outages.
Our experienced production team executed each phase with precision, transforming a problematic basement into a stable, dry, and valuable living space. The result delivered exactly what the Columbia homeowner needed: complete peace of mind and long-term protection for their property investment.
