Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A Beaufort, SC homeowner contacted our office with concerns of a water intrusion issue they were having in the lower level of their home. After our team inspected the space, it was decided to install our WaterGuard Drainage system paired with a SmartSump Pump and half the block wall sealed off with CleanSpace Vapor Barrier. 

The WaterGuard system is installed along the perimeter of the basement floor to collect water that seeps in through the walls or floor. It channels this water to the SmartSump Pump system, which efficiently pumps it out and away from the home. The Half Wall CleanSpace system is applied to the lower half of the block walls, creating a barrier that prevents moisture from entering while also directing any wall leaks into the WaterGuard system. Together, these systems work seamlessly to manage water intrusion, keep the area dry, and protect the home from potential water damage.

An exterior discharge line is a pipe that directs water from a sump pump or other drainage system away from the home to prevent water accumulation and potential flooding. Attaching a LawnScape Outlet at the end of the discharge line serves as a protective and aesthetic outlet for the water. Its purpose is to safely disperse water into the yard while preventing debris from clogging the line and maintaining a neat appearance.

This home had a sump pump that would constantly clog with sand, causing water to overflow. Our team evaluated the issue and installed a waterproofing system, complete with a vapor barrier & sump pump. With our clog-free sump pump installed, the water can now properly drain.

This homeowner in Hilton Head Island, SC had moisture issues in their crawlspace. The homeowner called Lowcountry Foundation Repair for a free inspection and customized quote to fix the issue. After a thorough inspection, they recommended our TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System to eliminate the water issue. The homeowner decided to move forward with that recommendation and was very satisfied with the results.

If your home has an inefficient sump pump, then it cannot effectively protect against basement flooding, water seepage, and water damage. The waterproofing professionals at Lowcountry Foundation Repair, offer the TripleSafe™ sump pump system, a battery-powered pump that promises security even during power outages. This three-pump system also automatically adjusts to meet pumping needs. By also repairing floor cracks, by backfilling them with stone and covering it with fresh concrete, we can further protect your below-grade space from water damage. Cracked concrete basement floor slabs are porous, meaning water can seep through, exacerbating the crack and leading to further structural damage.
