Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing Project Installed in Rochester, NY, to Help This Wet Basement

Tucked away in the basement closet, a water issue was slowly growing into a problem! As each droplet crept into the insulation, drywall, and carpet, it began to soak them up. One day, Ed went to grab something from that closet and walked out with wet socks, so he picked up the phone to call Frank's Basement System. We installed the WaterGuard drainage system and a SuperSump Plus to keep out moisture from seeping in. Then, we replaced all the damaged drywall with EverLast Wall Restoration panels. Today, you'd never guess water was ever an issue!

Damage From Water Seepage

Water wasn't holding back here down in Ed's basement! It crept through the walls and floors, leaving behind a soggy mess in its wake.

Open and Exposed Sump Pit

Adding shelves above the sump pump to use for dry food storage seemed harmless enough years ago. But without a lid, every time the pump kicked on, water splashed up and onto the food.

Adding In A Drainage System

Water won't be reappearing in Ed's basement anymore! Sitting right where the foundation and floor meet, the WaterGuard drainage system is now in place. Every drop of moisture trying to seep in is captured before it ever has a chance to invade this basement!

Upgrading the Sump Pump

The splash zone is officially closed inside this closet! With the SuperSump Plus's airtight lid, Ed can add new shelves above and won't have to worry about picking up a wet can of corn again.

Refinishing the Walls

Ed had to remove the lower section of the finished basement walls due to damage. But with the EverLast Wall Restoration System, you'd never know there was something else there before. Plus, their new finish materials are made of inorganic material, meaning mold and moisture can't hurt them!

All in the Details

Details really can make all the difference! Our crew went the extra mile and carefully unrolled the undamaged carpet so that each of the WaterGuard drainage system cleanout ports was still easy to access. Proof that the real quality of a project is in the details!
