Waseca County, MN Waterproofing & Foundation Company

Homeowners Kevin and Edna B. went through a natural disaster in their home in Waseca, MN.  On September 22, 2016 nearly 14 inches of rain fell in the Waseca area in less than 24 hours.  Many other homes in the area experienced water in their basement for the first time, Kevin and Edna have lived in their home for over 40 years.  The weather also affected their foundation walls, they began to shift and buckle.  They were encouraged by FEMA to contact Complete Basement Systems for a free evaluation of the damage.

Our system design specialist designed a complete waterproofing system and foundation wall repair system to permanently stabilize their foundation from any further movement.  

Our loyal customers Dewey and Kathy of Waldorf, MN routinely call on Complete Basement System for maintenance on their basement waterproofing and sump pump system that we installed.  They have been very happy with their waterproofing system since installed in 2005 by Complete Basement Systems.

The service is important to prevent a flood in heavy rains.  Sump Pumps are electro-mechanical devices and they sit in dirty water all the time. The service we offer is important to make sure it's ready when the big rains come.  We inspect to find problems that could cause a flood before they find the customer.  

After we successfully waterproofed their basement, a family in Good Thunder, MN, decided it was time to upgrade the look and feel of the space. They chose our ThermalDry® basement flooring — designed to resist moisture, prevent mold, and provide a warm, stylish finish.

With a variety of styles to choose from, they selected a sleek, modern look that perfectly suited their home. Our team handled the installation with precision, creating a beautiful, comfortable space ready for anything.

Now, their basement isn’t just protected — it’s transformed. Ready to upgrade your basement? Let us help you create a space you’ll love!

In Waseca, MN, a homeowner reached out to us after being fed up with battling water seeping into her basement. Like so many Minnesota homeowners, she had experienced the familiar struggle that comes with heavy rains, melting snow, and shifting soils, a damp, musty basement that never quite felt dry or secure. What started as a small nuisance had become a real concern, threatening her belongings, her home’s foundation, and her peace of mind.

Our team at Complete Basement Systems knew exactly what she was facing. In Minnesota, waterproofing isn’t just about convenience. It’s about protecting the home from the unique challenges of our climate. When the ground around a home becomes saturated, hydrostatic pressure builds up against the foundation, forcing water through the tiniest cracks and joints. That’s where our proven systems make all the difference.

We installed a WaterGuard Interior Drainage System, which is a smart, low-profile solution that channels water directly to a SuperSump pump system. This powerful sump pump quietly removes water before it can cause damage, keeping the space dry even during heavy rains. To finish the transformation, we lined the walls with CleanSpace, a bright, durable vapor barrier that not only stops moisture but also makes the basement feel clean and welcoming.

Today, her basement is dry, protected, and full of potential again. What was once a source of stress is now a place she can use and enjoy.

This project is more than just another waterproofing job. It’s a story of taking back control, investing in the future, and knowing that no matter what the Minnesota weather brings, this home is ready to stand strong for years to come.
