Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This basement was dealing with water seepage along the walls and pooling near entry points, leaving the space damp and unusable. The walls had no moisture protection, and there was no proper drainage system to manage incoming water.

Our team installed a WaterGuard® interior drainage system and a TrenchDrain™ to capture and redirect any water away from the basement, keeping it permanently dry. To protect the walls, we installed a vapor barrier, sealing out moisture and giving the space a clean, bright finish.

Basement waterproofing in Osgoode,On

Customer Concern:
A homeowner in Osgoode was struggling with a wet basement that threatened their belongings and home’s foundation. Water seepage was leaving the space damp and uncomfortable, and they wanted a permanent waterproofing solution to protect their basement for the long term.

Our inspection revealed water intrusion along the basement walls and floor joints. The existing system was not able to manage heavy water flow, which put the basement at risk of repeated flooding. The homeowner needed a reliable interior waterproofing system to keep their space dry year round.

To fully waterproof the basement, we installed a combination of proven products designed to keep water out and direct it safely away from the home:

1. CleanSpace® Vapor Barrier

   • Installed on basement walls to block moisture and humidity while creating a clean, finished look.

2. WaterGuard® Drainage System

   • Placed around the perimeter of the basement to capture water at the floor/wall joint and direct it to the sump pump.

3. WaterGuard® Inspection Port

   • Added for easy access and maintenance of the drainage system.

4. Zoeller M98 Sump Pump

   • Installed a high-performance sump pump to efficiently remove water from the basement and prevent flooding.

5. IceGuard® Discharge Line Protection

   • Added IceGuard® fittings to prevent backups in the sump pump discharge line during freezing temperatures.

The new waterproofing system transformed the basement into a dry, protected, and more usable space. The homeowner now has peace of mind knowing their basement is safeguarded against water intrusion in every season. The combination of CleanSpace®, WaterGuard®, and the Zoeller M98 sump pump ensures lasting protection and reliability.

We had a customer in the city of Ottawa who needed our help with some water intrusion into their basement. We applied a flexispan to the area of concern to help prevent further water intrusion. Flexispan is a patented, multi-layered basement wall crack repair system that offers a flexible, long-term solution for water intrusion. Unlike rigid epoxy injections that can fail as a foundation's walls move. It works by first injecting a flexible, polyurethane sealant into the crack, then applying a foam strip that acts as a secondary drainage channel, directing any future seepage invisibly down the wall into the drainage system, ensuring a dry basement and a finished look.

Our Crew recently assisted a homeowner in Ottawa who had growing concerns about their basement due to moisture issues and signs of foundation wall movement. The homeowner wanted a long-term solution that would both control water and stabilize the structure. 

After a full assessment, we designed and installed a comprehensive system to address all concerns. To manage groundwater, we installed a WaterGuard subfloor drainage system along with a WaterGuard port for easy access for future maintenance. Collected water is safely directed to a TripleSafe sump pump system, providing dependable protection during heavy rain and power outages. An Ice guard was added to the exterior discharge line to prevent freezing and ensure year-round performance.

To control wall moisture, we installed a cleanspace wall system, creating a durable vapor barrier that directs any moisture into the drainage system. Rim joist insulation was also installed to improve energy efficiency and reduce drafts in the basement.

To address foundation wall concerns, our crew installed carbon armor straps and armor lock anchors, stabilizing the walls and helping prevent further movement over time.

The result is a dry, protected, and structurally stable basement, giving the homeowner long-term peace of mind and confidence in their home.
