Victor Barke's Complete Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Mary of Rosemount was getting water seepage in her basement along some of her walls.  She wanted a permanent solution to the problem for good. 

Our Installation team installed a WaterGuard drainage system to collect all ground water that would seep up through the floor and wall joint.  As well we installed a wall barrier using CleanSpace Wall System to protect the walls from moisture, mold, etc.   We installed a new SuperSump Pump System to collect the water and will discharge outside away from her home. 

This Lake Elmo homeowner updated his sump pump just in time for Spring! His old pump had failed so it was time to upgrade. Our top-of-the-line TripleSafe pump was installed. This is a three pump system. Pump 1 is the M-63 which is a 1/3hp cast iron pump that does most of the work. The 2nd pump is the M-98. This is a 1/2 hp that will kick in if Pump 1 fails. This is a larger pump that gives that "turbo boost" when you need it. Pump 3 is a battery back up system. This is a DC operated pump that will kick in if there is a power failure. This is the most reliable pumping system, keeping your basement dry with triple the protection.

These homeowners in Lake Elmo, MN wanted to update their old sump pump that wasn't working. They were also interested in updating their discharge line to a buried, low-maintenance line. 

After a short inspection and conversation, it was decided to upgrade their old pump with our SuperSump and UltraSump System. This includes a 1/3 hp Zoeller cast iron motor that can pump up to 2,650 gallons/hour. The UltraSump is the back up pumping system that runs on a high capacity 120 amp power pack. This means it will kick in if there is a power failure or the main pump fails for any reason. This set up is connected to our LawnScape buried discharge system with IceGuard that prevents any water from backing up into your basement in the case of freezing or clogging in the line.

They were very happy to have an updated system they could be confident in.

Here's a recent basement we just fixed in Inver Grove Heights, MN. The Fitzgerald family had damp block walls that needed waterproofing. Among the WaterGuard and SuperSump, we also installed the CleanSpace Crawlspace wall lining to help waterproof their basement. That is what you see here. CleanSpace can also be used for regular basement walls to help insulate and keep water out as well as using it in a crawlspace under a house. We also added an egress window with RockWell surround.

Here's a great photo of a home in Lakeville, MN that had both a crawlspace AND a finished basement. We encapsulated the crawlspace as well as the bottom half of the basement with CleanSpace. We also installed a WaterGuard system in the basement half to ensure protection against flooding.
