Before & After Photos

Damp and dreary—we've seen it before, especially here in Portsmouth, NH. Just like in the before photo, where a constantly wet basement with a fieldstone foundation posed significant challenges for a homeowner dreaming of condo conversions. But here’s where we leap into action. Peep our after photo: a transformation centered on enduring, maintenance-free solutions. Leveraging a lineup of our best - WaterGuard, TripleSafe Sump Pump, CleanSpace lining, IceGuard, and the SaniDry Sedona—each offering designed to tackle dampness and ensure a bone dry basement reimagined for comfortable living. No matter the foundation or the fear, we dig down to provide security and serenity with trusted tools of the trade.

In Portsmouth, NH, we addressed a significant challenge: a basement with persistent water intrusion due to a leaky fieldstone foundation, evident in the depicted "before" scenario. The ineffective and aging sump pump system stood no chance against the elements. Our solution, demonstrated in the "after" photo, involved the installation of the high-performing TripleSafe Sump Pump together with our WaterGuard and IceGuard systems. This strategic combination effectively transformed the space into a secure and dry area. Our focus remains steadfast on providing unparalleled home solutions that are both reliable and enduring, ensuring homeowner confidence throughout.

The owner of this home in Manchester, MA was concerned with water entering his basement. Half of the basement was a finished space, and the last thing they wanted was for water to cause any damage. While there was an older perimeter drain in place, it did not connect to a pump of any kind. After a wet year like 2023, it was evident to the homeowner that more protection was needed to keep his basement dry. 

Our team designed and installed an upgraded perimeter drainage system along with a TripleSafe sump pump, complete with a battery back-up power source. Our team also installed a SaniDry dehumidifier to help control the moisture levels in the basement and improve the air quality in the home. 

This homeowner now has peace of mind that his home will stay dry all the time and be protected against water in the basement for years to come.

This homeowner in Rye, New Hampshire purchased his childhood home from his parents in 2015. Since purchasing the house, one of the two sump pumps had failed and the homeowner decided to call EFS for a free inspection by our Design Specialist Jason Vachon. Jason recommended replacing the two old sump pumps with our bigger and more capable SuperSumps. 

A homeowner in Gloucester, Massachusetts, had an unfinished dirt crawlspace that allowed cold floors and drafts to the house above. We installed PolyLevel Wall Restoration and SilverGlo into the crawlspace to insulate the foundation wall.
