Sump Pumps Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Fairmont, MN had a basement that just wouldn’t stay dry. After every heavy rain, water would flood in along the floor edges and through the block walls, leaving puddles, musty odors, and constant frustration. The space was unusable and the homeowner was tired of the ongoing cleanup and concern about long-term damage.

When we inspected the basement, it was clear the problem was due to hydrostatic pressure and poor drainage around the foundation. The solution? A permanent interior waterproofing system, including a reliable sump pump.

We installed our WaterGuard drainage system, which captures water at the perimeter before it can reach the basement floor. To further protect the space and improve air quality, we installed CleanSpace vapor barrier on the walls, sealing out moisture and preventing it from entering the living space. And to make sure any collected water gets pumped out efficiently, we installed our reliable SuperSump sump pump system, designed to handle high volumes of water with built-in backup options.

Now, this Fairmont basement is dry, clean, and ready to be used without worry. No more flooding. No more musty smells. Just a healthier, safer home.

Darroll S. of Sleepy Eye MN contacted Complete Basement Systems to address the musty smell in the basement of his home.  In his previous home in Waseca, MN we installed a Complete system for waterproofing and he really liked the sump pump system.  We updated Daroll's sump pump system with our patented SuperSump Pump System and installed an efficient dehumidifier system that works to drain water from the unit to the sump pump system. 

This family called us to look at their leaky basement. They had enough water to have wet, squishy carpet and mold present. They had plans to refinish the basement so they wanted to make sure the waterproofing they chose to do would be a permanent solution. After assessing the situation, our team determined that installing a full perimeter system would be the most effective way to keep the basement dry permanently. We implemented our WaterGuard Drain Tile System, CleanSpace Wall System, SuperSump Plus Sump Pump, and a battery backup. We are so confident in our waterproofing solution that we offer a LIFETIME warranty on our work.

When this homeowner reached out to us, she was facing a serious water issue in her basement. Frustrated with the ongoing problem, she wanted a permanent solution to keep her basement dry and protected.

Our System Design Specialist visited her home to assess the situation and determine the best course of action. After a thorough inspection, we recommended a comprehensive waterproofing system tailored to her needs.

To ensure long-term protection, we installed our WaterGuard Drain Tile System, which effectively channels water away from the foundation. We also added our CleanSpace Wall System, designed to keep moisture and humidity at bay while improving the overall appearance of the basement. Finally, we installed our SuperSump Sump Pump, a reliable system that provides powerful water removal and peace of mind.

With these solutions in place, this homeowner now has a permanently dry basement—no more worrying about water intrusion or damage.

Our customer had gotten water in the basement after a hard summer rain that occurred in Courtland in June 2013.  After getting a referral for the problem he was having, he contacted Complete Basement Systems for a FREE estimate.  Our installation team upgraded the old sump pump system with our patented TripleSafe Sump Pump System.  The TripleSafe contains 3 pumps, one is a 1/3 hp motor, second is a 1/2 hp motor and the third is a battery operated back up system.  The TripleSafe Sump Pump System is sure to keep up with any amount of water running through the foundation and will keep working in the event of a power outage.
