This Baltimore County resident asked us to come out to another property of his for basement waterproofing. Leaving that property behind and purchasing another in the same county, it unfortunately had the same issue, when it would rain, water would enter in through the block foundation walls. Liking the waterproofing system that was installed at his other property, he reached back out to us for help.

We fully waterproofed this basement with the help of our CleanSpace vapor barrier, Waterguard, SuperSump Pump and IceGuard. Our CleanSpace is placed from floor to ceiling on the foundation walls and it is tied directly into the Waterguard perimeter drain. Any water that may think it is getting into this basement to cause issues, will be met by this barrier and it will be directed straight down to the Waterguard. Once water enters the Waterguard it will then travel over to the SuperSump Pump. SuperSump then takes that water and pumps it outside via the discharge line. As added protection for the basement, we installed our IceGuard on the exterior of the foundation, where the discharge line is. Thanks to the design of our Iceguard, it will stop any water from backing into the basement if and when the discharge line freezes in those cold winter months.

At this property there was high moisture in the basement which was giving off the musty odor and when walking down into the lower level you'd get hit with the mugginess. The owners reached out to our company for a system that will eliminate the problems that they are experiencing. We installed our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier that is designed to remove the muggy feeling, high humidity and even can relieve asthma.We attached the system to the sump system that will drain right into it and connected an UltraSump Battery that will keep the system on incase of a power outage or trip circuit.

In this basement the owners were experiencing damp walls which were leaking onto the floor and creating moisture throughout. We installed our CleanSpace Wall System that is a waterproof resistant barrier that is effective for the type of moisture they are experiencing.  This wall barrier will capture all wall leakage and carry any leaks down into the sub-floor drainage system which safely removes the unwanted water.

Job Stories From Baltimore, MD
Drainage System Installation in Baltimore, MD

We recently had the pleasure of helping a homeowner in Baltimore, who started noticing that with every rain, water was beginning to seep into her basement. She reached out to us, understandably concerned about the potential damage this moisture could cause to her home’s foundation and the overall safety. A System Design Specialist from our team visited the homeowner, identified the causes of the water intrusion, and recommended the installation of our WaterGuard system. The WaterGuard system is a revolutionary interior basement waterproofing solution designed to effectively capture wall and floor seepage before it damages your basement or crawl space. With the homeowner's go-ahead, our foreman and installation team got to work. We meticulously installed WaterGuard along the perimeter of the basement floor. This involved carefully creating a drainage channel, ensuring it was expertly positioned to catch any water entering the space and divert it away from the property, thus preserving the fitness and livability of the area. The result? A fully waterproofed basement and most importantly, a greatly relieved homeowner. 

Basement Waterproofing Installation in Baltimore, MD

Recently, we tackled a challenging waterproofing project in Baltimore, MD. The homeowner reached out to us after a routine inspection uncovered several red flags – key among them being structural concerns and substantial moisture in the basement's sidewalls. This was particularly tricky as the basement was finished, which heightened the risk of long-term damage and added complexity to the solution process. On receiving the call, we promptly dispatched our specialist system design team to conduct a thorough analysis. Their inspection was meticulous, resulting in a tailored waterproofing strategy that promised not just to rectify the current issues but also prevent future occurrences. Our chosen plan hinged on two of our most reliable products: WaterGuard and CleanSpace. WaterGuard, an innovative interior drainage system, was to be positioned along the basement's perimeter. Its design would capture wall and floor seam water, channeling it away before it ever became a problem. Coinciding with this, CleanSpace, a durable, moisture-resistant liner, was to envelop the problem areas on the basement walls. Together, these solutions provide a barrier to moisture and redirect any water ingress effectively. Our dedicated production team worked meticulously, ensuring every aspect of the solution was implemented seamlessly. 

Basement Waterproofing System in Baltimore, MD

Recently, a homeowner in Baltimore, MD, reached out to us with a concerning issue. They noticed water seeping up through their basement floor, especially around a visible exterior crack. Aware of how serious water damage can be, they knew it was time to call in experts. One of our System Design Specialists visited the home for a thorough inspection. We found that the issue was indeed as serious as the homeowner feared but, fortunately, well within our capability to fix. The solution was clear: we needed to install our WaterGuard system alongside the TripleSafe Sump Pump. Our WaterGuard system is specifically designed to intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and direct it safely away to prevent any damage or flooding. Paired with the TripleSafe Sump Pump, which offers triple the protection against water by having primary, secondary pumps, and a battery backup system, we had a winning combination that would ensure the basement stayed dry, regardless of heavy rain or other contributing factors. Our experienced installers got to work, carefully integrating these systems without disrupting the homeowner's daily life more than necessary. The installation process went smoothly, thanks to our team's expertise and the straightforward efficiency of the products we trust. 

Sagging Crawl Space in Baltimore, MD

When a homeowner in Baltimore, MD, noticed their unfinished basement began experiencing water intrusion and their first level was slightly sagging at one end, they knew immediate action was needed. Concerned about the visible deterioration of the brickwork in their crawlspace, which was unable to support that area properly, they reached out to us for help. Understanding the urgency, our team quickly got to work to provide a lasting solution. After contacting our Customer Care team, an appointment was scheduled for an in-depth home inspection. Our System Design Specialist meticulously assessed the situation, determining the best course of action to address both the water issue and the structural instability. Therefore, we recommended the installation of the SmartJack system — a proven, reliable method for stabilizing and lifting sagging floors back to their original position. Our production team, consisting of a skilled foreman and knowledgeable installers, arrived at the home to tackle the problem. The process began with carefully preparing the area in the crawlspace. We then installed the SmartJack support system, which involved strategically placing high-strength steel supports to ensure a durable and lasting lift to the compromised end of the home. 

Leaking Basement Wall in Baltimore, MD

In Baltimore, Maryland, a concerned homeowner reached out to us about a persistent issue with water seeping into his finished basement during rainy weather. The water would trickle in where the walls meet the floor, creating an uncomfortable and potentially damaging situation. Recognizing the need for a permanent solution, we stepped in for a thorough evaluation. Upon inspection, our team confirmed that water was indeed intruding along the perimeter of the basement. To address this, we recommended installing our WaterGuard system—a drainage solution specifically designed to capture water at the critical joint where the wall and floor meet, effectively directing it away before it could reach the basement interior.   

 

The WaterGuard system was carefully installed along the basement's perimeter, ensuring a seamless fit with the homeowner's existing finishes. This solution provided the homeowner with peace of mind, knowing his basement was protected against future water issues. He was genuinely satisfied with the final result, expressing gratitude for a solution that not only addressed his immediate concerns but also safeguarded his home for the long term.

Upon inspection, our specialist accurately diagnosed the problem and recommended a comprehensive solution to ensure a watertight basement. Our solution involved the installation of three key systems: waterguard, TripleSafe sump pump, and SaniDry Sedona. The WaterGuard system was installed along the interior perimeter of the basement to effectively capture wall and floor seepage before it reaches the basement floor. The TripleSafe sump pump, with its three pump design, ensures that the basement stays dry all the time, even in cases of power outages or extreme flood conditions. Lastly, the SaniDry Sedona was put in place to keep the air dry and healthy, combating mold and mildew growth and ensuring the air quality was pristine.

Basement Finally Dry in Baltimore, MD

This old home in Baltimore city had a fieldstone foundation which leaked everywhere.  We installed the WaterGuard basement waterproofing systems around the perimeter.  The system was connected to a SuperSump system which will automatically pump the water out of the house.  A WaterWatch alarm will monitor the pump and notify the homeowner if the pump fails.  We also installed the CleanSpace vapor barrier on the walls to reduce moisture transmission through the foundation.  Finally, we also installed the larger TrenchDrain in the stairwell with a new concrete stairwell pad.

Foundation Repair, Waterproofing, and Finishing in Baltimore, MD

This basement had lots of problems. There were structural problems plus water leaking issues and the customer also wanted to re-finish it. The first thing we did was install CarbonArmor on the foundation walls to guarantee that they would no continue to crack and bow.  Then we installed a SuperSump system with WaterGuard  to prevent water seepage.  Once the waterproofing and structural repairs were completed, we removed all the old paneling and installed the TBF EverLast wall system. TBF comes with a 50 year guarantee against water damage and mold growth.  Once the walls were up, we installed MillCreek waterproof flooring and an inorganic and mold resistant drop ceiling.  The job came out great, but more importantly, the right materials were used. This basement will not have mold and odor issues in a the future.
