Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Before:
The basement in this home was plagued by persistent water issues. During heavy rains, water would seep in where the floor met the walls, leaving puddles along the perimeter and damp spots on the concrete. The walls showed signs of moisture damage and efflorescence, and the air often felt musty and humid. This wet environment made the space unusable for storage or living.

After:
After installing the WaterGuard drainage system along the interior perimeter and sealing the walls with CleanSpace, the transformation was remarkable. WaterGuard now effectively collects and channels any incoming water to a sump pump system, preventing it from ever reaching the floor surface. The CleanSpace vapor barrier covers the walls, sealing out moisture and giving the basement a bright, clean appearance. The musty smell is gone, the air feels dry, and the homeowners finally have a dry, usable basement.

Is your home in Pemberton, Minnesota, experiencing a damp, unfinished basement with signs of water damage? This homeowner's cinder block walls clearly showed staining, moisture marks, and active water seepage, creating a vulnerable environment for mold growth, structural issues, and poor indoor air quality. We transformed this problematic space with our proven basement waterproofing system. First, we installed the WaterGuard interior drainage system to effectively capture water seepage before it reaches the basement floor. Then, we sealed the walls with our durable CleanSpace vapor barrier, which permanently prevents moisture and humidity from entering the home.

The result is a clean, dry, and healthier basement, fully protected from future water damage and ready for any use. Whether you're dealing with a wet basement in the Mankato area or seeking to safeguard your home from future issues, our basement waterproofing solutions are built to last and provide lasting peace of mind.

This St Clair homeowner contacted Complete Basement Systems when she was getting water in her finished basement.  Our production team installed our WaterGuard Drainage System along with an insulated wall system for her 1/2 basement walls.

Our customer in St Clair, MN was referred to Complete Basement Systems to fix the bowing and cracking walls he was experiencing. 

Once an appointment was scheduled, our System Design Specialist met with the homeowners, together they did a thorough inspection.  It was also found that there had been some previous moisture and water issues as well as a cracked foundation wall.

The solution to give our customer the best long term solution involved installing an interior waterproofing system using WaterGuard and CleanSpace Wall System. The customer also had plans to finish the basement and to give the homeowner peace of mind no matter the volume of rain or a power outage, the TripleSafe gave them all of that protection from a flood event. 

To resolve the cracked foundation and bowed wall, the solution was to use the PowerBrace Wall System to permanently stabilize the foundation walls.  It is a zinc coated steel beam installed on the interior of the home and placed against the foundation wall to prevent any further wall movement.
