Basement Waterproofing & Crawl Space Experts in Saint Paul, MN

A homeowner in Eagan, MN reached out to us after ongoing water issues began affecting their finished basement. What started as occasional moisture had turned into a bigger concern, especially with the risk of hidden damage behind walls and under flooring. On top of that, their existing sump pump was outdated and no longer performing efficiently, leaving the space vulnerable during heavy rains and snow melts.

Our System Design Specialist took a close look and recommended a full waterproofing solution to protect both the structure and the finished living space. To start, the old sump pump was replaced with our top-of-the-line Zoeller motor-operated sump pump, providing reliable, high-performance water removal they could count on. From there, we installed our WaterGuard interior drainage system to effectively capture water at the perimeter and direct it safely to the sump. To complete the system, CleanSpace was installed along the walls to create a clean, moisture-resistant barrier.

While it’s never easy to demo parts of a finished basement, it was a necessary step to fully address the problem. Previous water intrusion can lead to mold growth behind, beneath, and even on top of finished surfaces, often without homeowners realizing it. Left untreated, this can impact air quality and allow damage to spread throughout the basement.

Now, this homeowner can enjoy their basement that is protected by a complete, reliable system designed to keep it dry for years to come.

This St. Paul, MN, couple had been dealing with continuous water problems in their basement for far too long. Heavy rains meant damp floors, seepage along the walls, and the constant stress of wondering when the next cleanup would be needed. After years of temporary fixes and unanswered questions, they reached out to our team looking for a professional opinion and a permanent solution.

After a full inspection, we identified that groundwater intrusion along the foundation perimeter was the root cause of their issues. To solve the problem for good, we designed a comprehensive waterproofing system tailored to their home.

We installed WaterGuard, our interior perimeter drainage system, to capture water at the foundation footing and safely direct it away before it could enter the basement. To create a clean, dry barrier along the walls, we added CleanSpace, which helps block moisture and directs any wall seepage into the drainage system. Finally, we installed a SuperSump pump system with UltraSump battery backup, ensuring reliable protection even during heavy storms or power outages.

With these systems working together, this couple now has a basement they can confidently rely on. Dry, protected, and worry-free for years to come. What started as a request for advice ended with a permanent fix and peace of mind, no matter what the Minnesota weather brings.

A homeowner in Eagan, MN, reached out to us after noticing his basement walls beginning to bow inward. While the walls hadn’t failed, he knew this was not something to ignore, and wanted to address the issue before it became more serious and more costly.

While we were there, the homeowner also wanted to take care of another concern. His sump pump was outdated and nearing the end of its lifespan. To ensure his basement stayed dry during heavy rains or power outages, we upgraded him to a top-of-the-line sump pump system with a battery backup. This new setup offers reliable protection and added security, even when the power goes out.

Now, this Maplewood homeowner can enjoy a dry basement without worrying about future water problems. With a permanent waterproofing solution in place, their lower level is protected, and they can focus on enjoying their home, no matter what the Minnesota weather brings.

When this homeowner from St. Paul reached out to us, he was feeling frustrated. His crawl space was cramped and hard to access, which made it nearly impossible to check on or maintain. Meanwhile, he was noticing some uncomfortable and costly side effects inside his home: the floors above the crawl space were always cold in the winter, his energy bills were climbing, and a persistent musty odor seemed to linger no matter how much he cleaned.

Our team sent out one of our System Design Specialists to assess the space. Despite the tight access, we were able to thoroughly inspect the crawl space and found exactly what we expected, exposed soil and stone, deteriorating and failing fiberglass insulation, and debris. All of these factors were contributing to the cold floors, poor energy efficiency, and musty smells moving up into the living space.

We walked the homeowner through his options and designed a plan to fully encapsulate the crawl space with our CleanSpace Encapsulation System. This included sealing the ground and walls with a heavy-duty vapor barrier to lock out moisture, insulating the space to improve comfort and efficiency, and closing off all outside air leaks.

Once the project was complete, the results were immediate. The musty odors disappeared, the floors above felt noticeably warmer, and the home became far more energy efficient. Best of all, the homeowner now has peace of mind knowing his crawl space is protected and his home is healthier and more comfortable.

If you’re dealing with similar issues in your crawl space, don’t wait—our team can design a custom solution to keep your home dry, comfortable, and energy efficient too.
