Sump Pumps Before & After Photos

We recently installed a SuperSump sump pump system in a Mankato, MN home to put an end to persistent water seepage that was damaging the homeowner’s finished basement. Now, with reliable protection in place, their basement is dry, secure, and ready for everyday living, no matter the weather. 

This Mankato, MN home had been battling persistent water intrusion in the basement. The homeowners were frustrated with the constant dampness and damage it caused, especially in the hard-to-reach space under the stairs. The moisture not only created an unwelcoming environment but also threatened the integrity of the home’s foundation over time.

With our proven waterproofing solutions, this basement is now completely protected. We installed a full WaterGuard drainage system, CleanSpace wall vapor barrier, and a SuperSump pump system to ensure water is collected and directed safely away from the home. Now, instead of worrying about water damage, the homeowners can enjoy peace of mind knowing their basement is dry, healthy, and protected for years to come.

A homeowner in Mankato, MN had been struggling with repeated water problems in her basement for years. During heavy rains or snowmelt, water would find its way through the wall and floor joints, leaving the space damp, musty, and unusable. Over time, the excess moisture also contributed to structural issues. Her basement walls began bowing and leaning inward under the pressure of the surrounding soil. She wanted to confidently finish and use this area as a livable space, but the ongoing water intrusion and compromised wall stability made that impossible.

After a thorough inspection, our System Design Specialist recommended a complete waterproofing and stabilization system to permanently solve both the moisture and structural concerns. Our installation team placed a full perimeter WaterGuard interior drainage system to capture groundwater at the base of the walls and direct it to a newly installed SuperSump sump pump system with an UltraSump battery backup, ensuring continuous protection, even during power outages. To seal out wall moisture and create a clean, bright appearance, we installed CleanSpace vapor barrier, which works in conjunction with the WaterGuard system to direct any wall seepage into the drain below. Finally, to address the structural instability, PowerBrace I-beams were anchored to the floor and joists, gradually straightening and securing the bowing foundation walls over time.

Now, her basement remains dry and stable year-round. With water concerns eliminated and the foundation reinforced, she can finally move forward with transforming her basement into a functional, comfortable living space, backed by the confidence of a long-term warranty and proven solutions.

This Mankato, MN homeowner was dealing with a basement that showed clear signs of water issues. Moisture staining on the walls and a vulnerable wall-to-floor joint made it obvious that water was finding its way inside. The space felt damp and unfinished, leaving the homeowner concerned about future damage and ongoing water problems, especially during heavy rains and snowmelt.

We permanently solved the issue by installing a complete basement waterproofing system designed to work together. WaterGuard was installed along the perimeter to capture water at the wall-to-floor joint and direct it away before it could reach the basement. A powerful SuperSump system ensures water is efficiently pumped out and away from the home, even during heavy storms. To finish the job, we installed CleanSpace wall covering, sealing off moisture, brightening the space, and giving the basement a clean, protected look.

The result is a dry, healthier basement the homeowner can trust year-round. No more stress when the weather turns wet.

Along with the CleanSpace Wall System and a SuperSump Sump Pump with an UltraSump battery backup, this homeowner can feel confident that their new place is well-protected.
