Victor Barke's Complete Basement Systems Before & After Photos

This Waseca block foundation wall had noticeable cracks and movement occurring.  They quickly contacted Complete Basement Systems to schedule a free estimate. 

Our system design specialist designed a solution to stabilize the foundation wall with our patented PowerBrace wall system. We also addressed waterproofing the basement and installed a perimeter WaterGuard, SuperSump pump system along with a moisture barrier on the walls using  our CleanSpace Wall System, giving it a brighter, cleaner look.  

A dry basement is a healthy, usable space—and the proof is in the pictures! Our professional waterproofing solutions stop water in its tracks, sealing out leaks and moisture for good. Whether it’s cracks in the walls or water seeping through the floor, we tackle the problem at its source. Say goodbye to water ruining your basement—say hello to a clean, dry basement you can actually enjoy!

This homeowner in Waterville, MN had been dealing with ongoing water intrusion in their basement for many years. Moisture would seep in along the perimeter, creating a damp, uncomfortable space and raising concerns about long-term damage and usability. Like many older homes in the area, the lack of an effective drainage system meant that water had nowhere to go once it reached the foundation.

Our team installed a full-perimeter WaterGuard drainage system to capture water at its entry point and direct it away from the home. To ensure reliable removal, we also added a SuperSump Plus system to efficiently pump water out and keep the basement dry year-round. The entire project was completed in just two days, giving the homeowner fast relief and long-term peace of mind. Now, their basement is protected, dry, and ready to be used without worry.

In July 2016 after a big rainstorm that hit the Albert Lea, MN area our customer Elroy & Shannon found themselves with a flooded basement.  A problem they never had before, but clearly had found out fast that this would not be the last time.  

When the installation team arrived to begin the installation, you can see just how much water was underneath their foundation after opening up the floor to install a sump pump and complete waterproofing system.  

"The crew were very good with the installment of the system, and explained all that was done."

Shannon contacted our company because their block foundation was failing to cause cracking walls that needed stabilization. 

Our system design specialist Ronald Schulz designed a solution to stabilize the foundation wall with our patented PowerBrace wall system. The walls are now stabilized with no more need for them to worry. We also replaced some of their existing basement windows with 3 of our Standard Everlast Windows. Shannon was is enthusiastic that the new windows let in so much more light into their basement! 

They were pleased that the installation crew was very professional, and informative and did a wonderful job cleaning up!
