Quality 1st Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Customer reached out to us because they wanted to waterproof the basement and then refinish (their basement was recently flooded and damaged due to a sump pump failure). 

For the waterproofing portion of the project, we installed a Cleanspace Vapor Barrier on the bottom portion of the wall, Waterguard along the basement perimeter and a SuperSump Pump. 

For the finishing, we used our Everlast Wall restoration on the bottom portion of the walls, which is immune to mold and moisture damage, Everlast Wall Panels and Thermal Dry flooring. We also removed and installed a new half bath. 

This homeowner had some cracks appearing on the drywall and was looking into getting their dirt crawl space encapsulated. We encapsulated the space by installing our CleanSpace that is lined with a drainage matting. Along the perimeter, we installed our SilverGlo panels that keep the basement insulated creating a vapor barrier from any moisture. 

On this project, we had to perform Urethane injections to 45ft tall foundation wall cracks. On the one foundation wall, we had to inject Epoxy into 30 cracks in order to strengthen the foundation's integrity by using the water-resistant epoxy. Once the cracks were filled, we removed the excess epoxy in order for the owner to touch up or stain the discoloration from the dry injections. Lastly, we reinstalled the foam boards we removed and taped seams flush against the walls.
