Victor Barke's Complete Basement Systems Before & After Photos

These homeowners called us to discuss their wet basement. They had water throughout the basement and had removed the finishings. They wanted us to waterproof before they refinished the space. In this small home, the basement was used as extra living space. It was necessary to keep it safe and dry.

After discussing the situation and having our Design Specialist Ron take a look, they decided on a full perimeter WaterGuard System, a SuperSump sump pump, a new discharge system and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier.

We can now guarantee their space will be dry!

This homeowner in St. Peter, MN, had been dealing with ongoing crawlspace issues that were only getting worse over time. Their old vapor barrier was failing, insulation was sagging and falling down, and the floors above the crawlspace felt noticeably cold, especially during Minnesota winters. On top of that, musty odors were making their way into the home, raising concerns about air quality and overall comfort. After putting up with the problem long enough, they were ready for a permanent solution.

Our team designed a comprehensive fix starting with a CleanSpace crawlspace encapsulation system to seal off moisture and create a clean, dry environment. To manage any water intrusion, we installed a SuperSump system paired with an UltraSump battery backup, ensuring reliable performance even during power outages. Finally, we added a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to control humidity and improve air quality throughout the home. The result is a healthier, more energy-efficient space with warmer floors, no musty smells, and long-term peace of mind.

After a pipe burst caused significant damage to his crawlspace, this St. Peter, MN homeowner wanted to make sure the space would not continue to cause problems. During his inspection, our System Design Specialist found that moisture had actually been an issue in the crawlspace even before the pipe burst.

Without proper ventilation or encapsulation, that moisture had been able to linger, creating a humid, mold-prone environment that could affect the air quality throughout the home. The homeowner wanted a long-term solution that would address the existing moisture concerns and help prevent them from becoming a problem again in the future.

We installed our CleanSpace Encapsulation System throughout the entire crawlspace, creating a sealed, protected environment. By encapsulating the space, we helped keep outside moisture and humidity from getting into the crawlspace and creating the conditions that can lead to mold and musty odors.

Now, this homeowner can have greater peace of mind knowing his crawlspace is protected from future moisture problems and is a cleaner, healthier part of his home.

This basement was showing signs of moisture along the foundation walls and floor. The aging walls and perimeter left the space vulnerable to water intrusion, making it difficult to keep the basement clean, dry, and comfortable.

This basement received a complete waterproofing upgrade with CleanSpace, WaterGuard, and a SuperSump system.

CleanSpace was installed along the foundation walls to create a clean, moisture-resistant barrier. WaterGuard was installed along the perimeter of the basement floor to collect water before it can enter the living space, while the SuperSump system provides a reliable way to pump that water safely away from the home.

The transformation is clear: a cleaner-looking basement with a professionally installed waterproofing system designed to help keep the space drier, cleaner, and protected from future water problems.

Reese was recommended by a friend, has an early 60's basement, cement block, cracks in foundation, water when it rains and seepage through walls in basement.  They contacted us at Victor Barke's Complete Basement Systems and we came up with a solution for there problems. By installing our WaterGuard drain tile, SuperSump Plus & UltraSump 4 they don't have to worry about cleaning up the areas in her basement that she was having problems with.  With the addition of the CleanSpace Wall System it also improved the look of the walls in the basement!
