Basement Waterproofing & Drainage Before & After Photos

This homeowner was concerned about the water coming through the back wall of her basement and she was just tired of cleaning it up. Water was coming in through the stone foundation walls and the cold joints. To fix this problem, we installed WaterGuard and a TripleSafe sump pump. Now this basement is water-free. 

Countryside Christian Church in Maryville, MO has been battling water issues in the basement for over a decade. They utilize their basement heavily for classrooms, gatherings, and hosting events. They’ve tried a plethora of solutions, but none have seemed to work. After reviewing our reputation and the variety of services we offer, they gave Thrasher a call to come inspect the basement.

 System Design Specialist Nico Lemmers arrived at the church in Maryville to perform a thorough inspection of the property. Jim D. of the church opted to have us install our WaterGuard basement waterproofing system throughout the entire space. In addition, the team installed two lateral drain lines down the middle of the building to prevent any clogging from soils underneath. Lastly, our waterproof plastic barrier CleanSpace was applied to all the walls to prevent any water from seeping through. These two products combined guarantee the basement stays dry year-round.

 After a long struggle with the water issues in the basement, the church community was relieved to have a permanent solution that allows them to move forward. They were more than pleased with the effectiveness of our solutions, and professionalism displayed by the team.

This homeowner's newly purchased home needed some serious work in the basement, settling water and cracks in the floor. Our crew was able to come in and seal the cracks to prevent the water from settling in these places. We then installed our TripleSafe sump pump to protect the basement from further water damage. 

This homeowner wanted to protect her basement in the case of pump failure or a power outage. She uses her basement as storage and doesn't want her belongings to get ruined. We installed an UltraSump during our annual maintenance with this homeowner. An UltraSump is a battery backup system that includes a separate pump, battery, and charger. 

This homeowner just moved to this area with a job that require traveling. When he was back in town for several days, he noticed water coming into the basement through a few places. He decided to take out some of the drywall to see where the water was coming from, and found there was water all along the wall. He called Thrasher and System Design Specialist, Tom Studer, came out to meet with him. Tom showed the homeowner how the water was coming through the cold joints, where the base footing of the foundation meets the walls. This was allowing the water concentration on the outside of the house to seep in. Tom proposed we use WaterGuard at the cold joint to capture the water coming from the cracks surrounding the footing and the wall, as well as CleanSpace. CleanSpace acts as water vapor to collect any water coming through cracks on the walls. This homeowner was so happy with the final results. There is no doubt he can refinish his basement without worry of water intrusion.
